protein shakes with water????



Recommended Posts

I made mine with Water, I would add like 6 ice cubes and fill the cup to measure 1 c. with water and then put half of a banana in it with the chocolate, yummy..they are thinner, with milk it was so thick...ewww, also our doc let us put in a tablespoon of Peanut Butter, I use the trop 50 o.j. and add that to vanilla, it is like an orange Julius, mmmm and then add a cup of cold coffee to the chocolate for a yummy mocha coffee shake.....you can also add fruit, etc....good luck!!

I mixed mine (Bariatric Advantage) with Water and chugged it with a fat straw. The PA told me I could mix it with anything, but don't go over 1000 calories a day. I did try it with Soup and oatmeal but that was kind of gross. The powder made them too thick. I lost 19 lbs on the pre op diet. I use vanilla Arbonne shakes now with Almond milk and fruit. They are actually delicious! Looking back, I could have done that pre op and easily stayed under 1000 calories. Good luck though, and while at the time the pre op diet seems to take forever, it will be worth it.

I used Water and a little ice. I mixed the Protein flavors chocolate with vanilla and strawberry, all together. Change it up so you don't get sick of the same flavor. You can get through this! I quit all Protein Drinks after a couple months.

Nonfat milk here. Carnation instant Breakfast (no sugar added). Not too bad actually. Just don't have the energy to stay up later than 9:30 anymore. And that's saying a lot for someone who used to regularly stay up past midnight.

      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.
