Body By Vi Shakes



Recommended Posts

Has anyone done the Vi shakes post op? I was considering it, not before I consult my doc first though. I was just wondering if anyone has tried it. I want to do it because I would be getting the nutrition that i need. It would be great for me with the busy lifestyle I have.

I'm curious as well what you find out. I like the body by vi shakes. I haven't done them post op because I think the carbs are too high, the Protein too low for the calories. There are better "shake" options out there. They just don't taste as good lol.

I did a diet awhile back here called ideal Protein. I still have a bunch of their product left, Soups, bars, Jello, pudding. I wonder if I could use that. Just compare the nutritional info I guess? My date isint until dec 3. But I'm trying to prepare. So far the consensus is 60+ grams of protein, 8 cups of Water.... What is the suggested carb , fat, and sugar intake in a day that you guys try to go by?

It would be hard to hit the 60 grams of Protein but in the research I've done on Protein we are only using a fraction of what we eat. The Vi shakes have all usable protein. I don't know if will do it because it is kind of pricy but I was looking for an option to make it easier to get the nutrition that I need. I never have room for anything but protein. I'll keep you informed after I consult my nut and if I decide to do it. The shakes are delicious!

Also, it has a lot of Fiber which is something I really need. I suffer from Constipation so bad since I've had surgery - and I had IBS.

      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?

      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.
