missdietcoke 18 Posted September 26, 2012 Hello! There are lots of "max power" "muscle build" type Protein powders but they all seem to be targetted for male body builders and are mostly 100% whey based which I think is again ideal for intake immediately after exercise. I just worried about buying too calorific a Protein Powder. Some are high Protein and also have higher amounts of sugars and carbs.... I just want to find good quality protein that cones recomended post sleeve surgery. I tried to google "unjury" which lots of people have referred to on the main pages but its not available here in UK.... Any suggestions ? #onedayiwillbeslim SD - October 4th 2012 I bought me the Impact Whey Protein in Raspberry flavor from Myprotein.com. There are plenty of protein powders available, and that is super confusing. Impact is low carb (1.5g) and low fat, protein is about 20g in a serving and comes in 20 flavors. Beware of the products that are being marketed as weight loss supplement, sometimes they are very high on carb!! Like the Sculptress from Maxitone, with 24g carb can be hardly considered low carb yet they are selling as a weight loss Protein shake. Hehehe I know i could never lose a gram on that shake! I am not sleeved yet, I'm trying to lose weight with dieting for now. Good luck finding the right protein powder! 1 Fiesta728834 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scottishlassie 35 Posted October 17, 2012 Hiya I was sleeved on the 4th October- 2 wks tmz! I've lost 17.5lbs since pre op and 26.5lbs down from heaviest weight! Feeling good about that. Only problem is exhaustion- it's hard to get in enough Protein and struggling with low carb intake. Just want to fast forward this bit and get on to eating food again- liquid phase is pants. #onedayiwillbeslim SD - October 4th 2012 1 Fiesta728834 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
