Finally - protein I can tolerate!



Recommended Posts

I am six weeks post op... I have tried:

Bariatric Advantage

Premier Protein

GNC powder and ready to drink

Unjury

Oh Yeah

Chike

Syntrax

Muscle Milk

Max Protein

Rockin' Refuel

BSN Syntha

Syntrax Matrix

Protizyme

Nashua Nutrition

Click

BSN Lean

... and probably a few I cannot remember. And? I hate them ALL.

They are all too sweet!

I am almost LIKING Isopure zero carb alpine punch... It kind of tastes like (to me) cranberry juice mixed with a dry white wine... Served ice cold, it had a gag-free refreshing tartness.

If you are also having a hard time stomaching uber sweet shakes, you might like this. BTW, it's kinda pricey in my opinion...

I'm already so tired of the Nectar's "Caribbean Cooler", "Roadside Lemonade" and ""chocolate Truffle", and I'm just 9 days post. Is there an unflavored Protein out there? That you could put in any liquid??

try www.mybariatricpantry,com Pantry Selections fruit drink Protein powders! They are soooo good! Theyre only 15g of protein but taste better than ANY other powder ive tried. I dont even put mixers in them! with my syntrac fuzzy navel and strawberry kiwi i have to add in a zero calorie flavor pack but with the Pantry Selections ones they taste good alllll by themself, you taste none of that protein taste at all! theyre awesome and only 11.95 for the sample pack!!! everyone should really buy some!

I can taste it too. Anything I add it to has that "unjury" flavor afterwards. Its not horrible, but not that good either. My DOS is December 17!! :) :)

Make sure you're getting the Isopure Zero Carb products to avoid all the sugar.

I like "Protein Ice" brand in the blue raspberry flavor...zero carbs, not too sweet, and tart and refreshing over ice. I buy it at a local sports nutrition shop. It's a little pricey as well...:/

      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.
