The dreaded protein shakes and bars

green · September 21, 2006

I've just been doing lots of Soup (Gardenay), apple juice, and yogurt along with Vitamins and clacium supplements. I am hoping that the yogurt will cover my Protein needs. Speaking of that, I bought some low-fat sour cream dill dip today. I figure I can do with a break from tzatziki. I am starting to look forward to a week from today when it will be mushie time!

Whoah! Did it really take you that long?
I just got unflavoured and chocolate, I think... maybe a strawberry sherbert. 20g of Protein per serving, right? Did you get unflavoured? Is it really unflavoured? Is it gritty?

I ordered and got it in about a week and a half. May depend on location. There are lots of recipes on the site, I have posted them here not long ago.

Thanks for all the info.

The Ensure does need to be very chilled. My nutritionist advised me to try it after I had many others that caused problems or simply tasted like rust in a can. I have never tried any of the others mentioned but will give them a shot now. This is why I love this site, you get lots of ideas.

Thanks again all!

Hi diane .how are you feeling?Welcome to bandland. Fill us in on your experience.

I go in tomorrow at 8:30 a.m. and I will certainly let everyone know how it goes. Right now I am gonna fit one more Protein shake in before midnight (ugh) After we can put a banana in there or something right? I will have to check with the doc. Not looking for anything to complicate things...

Talk to you all tomorrow from bandland!
