1 week and 2 days post op - Protein shakes



Recommended Posts

So before surgery i had bought 3 cases of Premier Protein shakes from costco 2 vanilla and 1 chocolate.< /p>

Been trying to drink the vanilla for the past couple days to get my Protein and i just cant take the taste.

So i just tried the chocolate and OMG ITS GREAT lol.

Why did i think i wasnt going to like CHOCOLATE !!!!

Thank god my vanilla is ALMOST gone and then I can fully start my chocolate shakes.

30g of protein and my dr. wants me to drink 2 a day.

Today will be my 1st official day of getting ALL my protein in YAY :rolleyes:

I also bought a few cases of Priemer and started with the chocolate...they are indeed pretty good. I did the whey Protein self made shakes during my pre op diet and got burnt out on those really quick. Today on the other hand I had the vanilla and it was horrible...I'm stuck with the case unless I can take it back to costco and have them switch the flavor for me;) I heard the Chike Protein Drink are fabulous...they come in coffee flavor. Best of luck to all

I can drink the Vanilla but I'm glad I only got one box. I think I might put some Water Enhancer drops in it next time. They advertise a strawberry, I haven't found it at any Sams Clubs here though. I have the Premier chocolate at least once a day.

I just recieved my sample pack from Chike yesterday and last night I had the Bananna and it was really good! I also have samples coming from Click and Big train. All 3 of those have coffee flavors.

strawberry sounds yummy! I put mine in the freezer while I fix Breakfast for my little one then enjoy it while he eats. In the beginning days it took me until almost noon to finish it. I believe it's helped in my success this far. I noticed today I had either head hunger or actual hunger, I didn't finish the vanilla one this morning:/ I will be back on my chocolate one tonight

How do you get samples?

I got all three direct from their respective web sites. You can also get some samples from Amazon.< /p>

I dont know if its ok to post website URLs on here but you can google them all by their names. Chike is called Chike Nutrition.

I'm glad I had gotten samples from nectar because I hate them all. I would be unhappy if I had a whole canister.

I am dying to find some Protein shakes I like! I have not even come CLOSE to getting enough Protein. Before the surgery I was doing Advocare and I really like them, now though I cannot even get down one ounce. Tried the Lean Muscle Milk today in the vanilla flavor and could only get down about 5 sips- yuck!

My dr didn't seem too concerned about the lack of protein (yet), he just wanted me to get enough liquids in period, but I am not on mushies for another two weeks. I do not want to lose a lot of hair!

      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.
