Places to get liquid protein samples



Recommended Posts

I've signed up for a 'Protein Tasting Party' to be put on by the Pacific Nutrition & Wellness Co. this coming Tuesday here in the Seattle area. Perhaps there are organizations in your respective areas doing the same. Then you can get taste samples of the Protein products out there. FYI.

http://buildingbrawn.com They have dozens and dozens of different samples, from nectar Syntrax (awesome fruity flavors) to Protizyme (mmmm dessert flavors!). They cost $0.79-$1.79 each. I bought 17 samples and an amazing shaker for $30 Unfortunitely you can only get 1 sample of a product for most of them though, but its great for our changing taste buds after surgery!

i went to that site but I couldn't see where you can order samples. I saw that they had many different brands to choose from, but where do you go on that page to look at the samples?

Either click the 1 serving tab up top, or type in the search bar "1 serving" "protein" (both with "" just like that). Just look at the nutrition first, some are high in carbs & sugar!

Has anyone used Visalus Protein Powder? I tried some in December to try and lose some weight and get used to Protein shakes; it has a great flavor and can be mixed with milk or fruit juice. I'm going to ask my doctor if it is a good source of protein.

Visalus is NOT a good option because it is SOY Protein which is bad because of something to do with Estrogen - it raises Estrogen levels which can cause weight gain.

Still so overwhelmed by all of the brands/flavors/types....pre-op but trying to be prepared. Plus have 2 wks pre-op diet and I am thinking I may do 3 wks just to get that extra push of weight loss.

Anyway, while looking I found the BSN - Lean Dessert Protein shake for 1/2 the price at imedmart opposed to BSN website and just thought I would share. The flavors sound delicious.....

BSN lean dessert is really good. I like it a lot. The carbs and calories are a little higher than some Protein powders, but that's probably why it's good. I love the banana cream pudding.

Thanks so much Oregon Daisy for posting this list. I start my 2 week pre-op liquid diet tomorrow, with surgery being on 10/22, and I was overwhelmed with all the choices! I just ordered several sample packets, so that should help! THANKS again!!!

Just new Info...

I ordered the Chike samples last week... shipping isn't $3 anymore..it's $6.95 ....samples were still worth it and I really enjoyed the Orange Creme...didn't care so much for the chocolate as it was really thick....probably would have been better in a blender with ice but I like my chocolate hot....(as in cocoa).

I'm going to try the banana today.

Buying these sample kits really gives you a great way to check out alot of products for minimal cost and gives you a great variety to prevent boredom too.

When you heat these powders depending on the temp they get thick and have lumps like bad gravy.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
