Premier Protein And Gummie Vitamins



Recommended Posts

Just an FYI for anyone who buys Premier Protein shakes from costco. They have a $5.00 off coupon in the add for the Protein. It's good for about a month, I think. There is a limit of 2 but my Costco let me keep my coupon so I can reuse it should I want more. Also, if you didn't get the coupons, go to Customer Service. They will give you another booklet with them all on there.

Also, there is a coupon in there for gummie Vitamins. I think it was for $2.50 or $3.00 off.

I took advantage of my coupon. Definitely a good reminder! Thank you.

I bought two cases today. With the one case I bought almost a week ago I'm good to go for my preop diet. I'd love to stock up for my postop diet, but I fear my tastebuds might change.

Amy, the shakes keep pretty well, so even if your taste buds change early post-op, the shakes will still be good in a few months when you're ready to drink them. I'm on only my second or third case of them, at 8 months out, so you may want to stick with what you currently have. :)

I should probably add that I like the shakes just fine, but I will add Protein Powder to my coffee or make a shake in my blender if I'm home rather than do the ready to drink shakes. :)

Thanks Lisa. I don't plan on getting anymore for now. I will go through more than half of them during my preop. I plan on trying to do different things with them to keep things interesting.....if that is even possible.

Amy, You can do quite a bit with the Protein Shakes. Freeze them to make them ice cream consistency or use them as a pudding like edible. Pour them into other foods (decaf coffee) instead of Creamer, or use them as part of a Protein Shake made with fruits if/when that is allowed for you. It's one way I get my carbs in before I work out, blend a Protein shake with a banana and it's double-yummy. :)

Thanks for the ideas. The chocolate shake with a banana sounds yummy.

      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.
