Protein shakes



Recommended Posts

Oh I'm sorry I just looked , it would come to be 78protein and 24 carbs a day with they whey from Walmart. With what I got its 75 Protein and 5g of carbs a day. I t average about the same in price, 47$ gives me 18 days or the 30 for Walmart gives me 16 plus more carbs so I guess it ain't too much of a difference. Doctor said Lear amount of carbs I can get so I guess I'm ok.

I was told today that I needed to do high Protein low carb shakes for two to 3 weeks 70 grams of Protein a day. Anyone know of a good reasonably priced ones. I'm going to GNC but I don't want spend 200$ please help !!

I use GNC products, and don't understand why your purchase price would be that much. I have used GNC Wheybolic Extreme (only 1.5 scoops powder per shake) since beginning my pre op diet, and have never spent over $100.00.

I purchased their Gold Card, and it has paid for itself many times over in savings.

What ever product you choose to use, be certain that it contains 100% whey isolate protein, as this is considered to be a complete protein containing all of the amino acids, and meets the nutritional needs of bariatric patients.

Do you add anything to your shakes or just add Water and ice and mix or blend?

Pre op, when my milk intake was restricted, I used Water and ice in the blender, and 1% milk when allowed to.

Now, I mix shakes in the blender with the 1% milk. I only use shakes post fills and occasionally when I need to increase my Protein intake to meet my daily goal.

      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.
