Your Favorite Protein Supplements, Please



Recommended Posts

Vegas mentioned Isopure. Both she and my surgeon claimed that Isopure has 40 grams of Protein. But the ones I've picked up only have 20. Are there different kinds and strengths??

Pre-made bottled Isopure does have 40 grams of Protein and comes in several flavors...I found orange to be the best. But your body can only absorb 20 grams at a time anyway (the rest gets peed out) so the 20 that you found will work too!

The bottled is clear (colored but clear) you can use it in place of cold Water when making your jell-0 !!

Best Wishes!

I did a search on this topic because I'm sure it's been done a million times before, but it came up negative.

Please post your favorite Protein supplement. Thanks so much from a new bander!

:D

Hi there and I want to say your doing great so far on your journey.

:hungry: I tried a few Protein powders but I love Designer whey in chocolate and I add a scoop of Smart Balance Peanut Butter( my dietican said its okay since Iam 4+ months out now!) it takes like a Reeces Peanut Butter Cup-Yum!

The vanilla tates good with a cup of frozen strawberries added.

I buy the small can at Eckerd for $10.00 but I can get the big one at The Health Nuts for $20.00 in Queens, NY.

Good Luck!

Love and Hugs and friendship,

Also, does anyone eat Protein bars? I'm looking for something I can grab on my way out the door in the morning..or eat at the office.

personally I don't think they are worth it....but I make a quick Protein shake and take that in the car with me...right now I have Spiru-tein chocolate flavor...but they have many other flavors.

I prefer Unjury and it doesn't come in a barrel size container like most supplements.< /p>

      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.
