Has anyone tried Big Train products? http://www.bigtrain.com/t-wls-weight-loss-surgery-protein-drink-mixes.aspx

I picked some up today from Sams, the Mocha Fit Frappe - just mixed one up as a blended drink and it's pretty darn good! I did need to add a splash of milk to it as it was pretty thick, but I'm ready to order some new flavors already because it was so good. At 21g of Protein, it's an excellent Meal Replacement.

I just wanted to post in case someone wanted to try something new, or to solicit comments if you've had it before. My wife hates Protein drinks but she really liked this because it didn't have that Protein chalky taste.

I love Big Train. I use cold coffee as the liquid and vanilla flavored mostly. Also I sometimes add sugar free Syrup like salted caramel for a change. I get mine from supplyvillage.com

I didn't like the vanilla latte at all but plain vanilla is great. Mocha is my second favorite. I prefer it using the blended drink recipe on the back with 2 scoops. My husband takes a scoop in a Blender Bottle to work every day and adds a k-cup to it.

I went on their website (I'm always hoping to find a good protein) but Big Train is not Protein isolate. My dr requires us to use isolates because you don't absorb all the Protein from the other types.

From their website:

Casein is the protein of choice in Fit Frappé. The source of the protein is Calcium Caseinate.

Probably why it tastes good LOL

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
