Ok... I just had my first Protein shake and let me tell you this crap is horrible!!!! Does anyone have any suggestions to make this stuff bearable? I got down quite a bit of it.... but I can also suffer shots of tequila easier. Heellllpppp...

Buy the Protein Shake that you can stomach the best then check out bariatricfoodie.com for recipes to make the.protein shakes pre op friendly and yummy at the same time!

Went shopping for Protein shake mix. Picked up New whey liquid Protein tubes in grape flavor. And a big jug of body fortress super advanced whey Protein. Not really sure what I should be looking for on the labels.... anyone have a good list of dos and don'ts when it comes to protein skakes and or mixes?

Body fortress is what I use. Here is what I was told about the shakes...per serving at least 20 grams of protein, 7 grams or less of carbs/sugars and 5 grams or less of fat. Body fortress is what I use.

Thanks.. I'm gonna do that. Not really sure what I SHOULD be eating or how much. Mainly on Protein Shakes and Snacks (beef Jerky, strawberries, carrots, and cottage cheese).

They are really good. The downside is the sweetness. They are just too sweet for me

[myshine84 33]

You will get used to the sweetness but its better than you thought right!

It tastes like a strawberry shake!

As long as its Protein and it tastes good that's all that matters
