Another Protein Shake Question



Recommended Posts

Can you all just give me the name of the Protein Shake you are using and if you like it Please. I am using the EAS Advantage shakes and Muscle Milk Light. Both of these are on my accepted list. I cant stand the thought of another week let alone day drinking these. They r awful! Help

I have to agree with you, I can't stand either of those brands either.

The only Protein Shake I found I like is Unjury. You have to order it online, but I'm over 9 months post op and I still have one for Breakfast every morning. I genuinely like them.

They also offer sample packs so you can try all their flavors before committing to buying an entire container.

Here's there website if you'd like to have a look: http://www.unjury.com/store/protein/

Agree, Unjury is good, I also like another site. Bariatriceating.com, theirs come in sample packets also and they are low in carb, calories and high in Protein 25gms each. You have to order them also. I drink Pure Protein Powder now after 2 years and I drink it daily. I like chocolate and vanilla, I like them extra cold shaken with ice.

I too am an Unjury fan. I love, love, love their vanilla Protein powder, and have been getting it delivered since my pre-op diet started eight weeks ago! Mixed with skim milk, it is sooo delicious and I will add a banana to keep me fuller longer and it is a delicious banana shake! The chocolate splendor is great too. Blend in a blender with ice for best consistency. So good!

Syntrax Nectar, a lot of different flavors, my favorites are capuchino and strawberry mouse. Amazone is the cheapest place to buy it. Good luck.

I will have to try vanilla with banana next time. After searching on here, I decided to order the unjury chocolate splender, I am so glad I did. I am on pre op diet and having surgery on the 25th so excited

The Chocolate Splendor is what I have for breakfast every morning. I love it.

Sometimes I even use it to make my own cafe mocha. I take a cup of coffee, a half cup of skim milk, and a scoop of Unjury Chocolate Splendor. It's VERY good!! It tastes just like a cafe mocha!! (just mix the Protein mix with the cold milk first then add it to coffee, so it dissolves properly)

Oooh, that sounds good! I love cafe mocha! I was practically addicted to the k-cups prior to pre-op but haven't had any in almost 8 weeks, mostly b/c of the sugar, but this sounds delicious. Can't wait to try it tomorrow morning!

I have personally found premade taste much better for me! I use Premier Protein shakes chocolate and vanilla. They are really good. Very high Protein which is great its 30g protein, 160 cal 3g of fat And 1 g of sugar so not bad at all! I get them at sams club for 16$ a box. Iv heard Unjury is good too im going to find out how to request samples because id like some variation!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
