Protein pills?



Recommended Posts

Anybody ever try them? What did you think? I'm just having a hard time with Protein powders and shakes. I know I don't eat enough to get my daily protein in.

I've never seen a pill with more Protein content than 3g per serving. Popping 20 pills doesn't seem like an easier way to get protein in. What problem are you having with shakes?

Well with the shakes they just seems to take for ever to get down. The Protein aftertaste..guess I'm just having a hard time adjusting to this new lifestyle.

I'm tired of Protein Shakes as well so I use Isopure unflavored Protein & add it 2 my Soups its 26 grams protein & that helps me reach my 80gram goal I wish it was a pill with atleast 50gram protein my nut. Said that we will have 2 drink atleast a shake a day 4 the rest of our lives 2 reach our goal omg I did order some shots called profect & they're the best tasting shots I had sweet but a lot better than the other 1's I've tried it has 25grams protein per shot thro out the day I just take sips at a time til its gone good luck 2 us

      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.
