Someone Pls Be My Saviour?!what Are The Best Protein Shakes Out There?



Recommended Posts

The Lean Protein Shakes from GNC saved my life! The strawberries and cream tastes like Nestles strawberry Quik! I spent hundreds on powder and premixed shakes and these were the best especially ice cold! If you go in, they will let you taste it.

I've been using Bariatric Advantage and I like it! I mix one scoop of banana with one of chocolate and make it really cold! You can also add PB2 for 5 grams of Protein and 45 calories to any shake!

Misslisa, are you pre or post op? Either way go easy on the bananas they are not a good "weight loss" fruit. I added strawberries, raspberries or pineapples 1/2 c to my Bariatric shakes. Yum. Strawberries emulsify fat.

If you don't like the Protein powder you bought at GNC, you can take it back and get a refund. That's one of the great things about trying powders and drinks at GNC or Vitamin Shoppe. They'll take back anything you don't like. Once you've settled on a brand (everyone's taste is different and it supposedly changes after surgery) you can try to order it in larger quantities to save money. I'm using About Time right now because it's got a nice mild flavor. I really don't like any of the RTD's so I can give you a recommendation there. I am planning on trying the Premier brand from Sam's Club/Costco based on so many recommendations here. Who knows, I may love it!

Good luck!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
