Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted April 18, 2012 Yesturday I drank 3 Protein Drinks, but I usually drink 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sarsar 824 Posted April 18, 2012 At the beginning I drank one in the morning and one at night. I mixed 3 scoops of Protein powder, each had 10 grams of Protein, with 14 ounces of Water. When I was on soft foods I would add a scoop of the powder to pudding, or yogurt to get more protein during the day. Now, 11 months out, I still drink one a day, in the morning, with 3 scoops of powder and 2 Tbs flax seed. I do this because my sleeve doesn't like food in the morning and it tolerates the drinks well and because I am one of the rare people that actually like my protein drink!

Lilee84 648 Posted April 18, 2012 I'm one of the worst about Protein Shakes - I don't use them at all, but I was told by my Dr today that I'm not getting my Protein in so now I HAVE to have at least 1 a day, with milk since I don't do that either... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PdxMan 4,292 Posted April 18, 2012 I drink one every morning. If I am working out intense like, I will have another one immediately following. Premier Protein shakes from costco. They rock. 1 TheSkinnyCow73 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicki D 33 Posted April 18, 2012 Right now I am drinking 3 Protein drinks a day preop I really like Spiru-Tein they have several flavors to choose from. I use milk in mine have not had the courage to try Water yet but I am on the liquid diet right now so I do not think the milk is going to hurt me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
txchickinla 4 Posted April 18, 2012 Thanks everyone. I am 6 days post op and have been on all clear fluids. Tomorrow I start full liquids...little nervous about getting all of my Protein in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
feedyoureye 3,087 Posted April 18, 2012 I used one a day for the first 12 months, now once in a while when I need more Protein and less carbs. I also mix them into greek yogurt for a protein boost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lsereno 2,525 Posted April 18, 2012 I drank two a day at first, then down to one a day, then just when I travelled and didn't get enough Protein in. Now when I travel I usually do get enough Protein. I haven't had one in more than a month. I keep the powder around for if I travel or if I get sick and don't feel like eating. Lynda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
