New whey protein shot 42g



Recommended Posts

I have been reading a bunch of threads on here and it seems everyone has there own opinion on them. I looked at the ingredients in it but to be honest I have no idea what I'm looking at...... All I know is a lot of people seem to be saying they are not good for you and I would like to know for sure, I have been using them, they were on the list my doctor gave me of supplements that are good for you......

Can't address what's in the shots, but my surgeon told me the day he released me from the hospital that the human body can only process about 20 grams of Protein at a time. He discouraged taking in more.

I've seen Liquid Protein shots made of desiccated animal parts and they were a new level of nasty. If these are made somehow from whey that would be amazing.

It doesn't matter if they are made from the right kind of Protein anyway. Your body can only process about 20g of protein at a time so buying something (which are the nastiest things on the planet by the way) with 42g of protein just makes no sense. You are just wasting half of it.

Split it in half? But either way I ain't going the nasty route ;-)

      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.
