protein shots



Recommended Posts

Yes, you can find them in any pharmacy and most grocery stores. The most common ones are 29 grams of Protein, I've seen some with 50 grams. The "shot" is actually 2.5 OZs or more so it is not something that a sleever can probably "slam" in one gulp. And WARNING, these too are very nasty tasting.

I have Protein shots called "Proasis" they are 2.9oz and have 25 grams of Protein. They are very sour tasting so I just mix an ounce at a time in diet Decaf iced tea. They are not gross at all if you dilute them. I buy them at Wegmans supermarket.

All that I have tried have been horrible. whey from Wally World, Protien Jello and the worst was Carnivore 50 gram from GNC. I would rather lick a dog's *** than drink that stuff. (just kidding) Nasty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I tried "the Bullet", 42g, and although it is better than most that I have tried, I still can't do it! And there seems to be some posts on here or at OH that suggest that collagen Proteins do not absorb well in the body and you may not be getting much of the grams that these purport to have. I would like more info on that. My Nut seems to be ok with them.

      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.
