I add flavorless Protein Powder to jello! My surgeon recommends putting it in everything you can stand to help get the Protein in. It made my Jello a little funky, but it was worth it to make it better for me!

Were you adding your Protein powder to milk?

I have had to start using almond milk, because I was not feeling well after I used 1% cow's milk.

I was lactose intolerant before surgery, but still ate some dairy, but not milk. Milk isn't on my surgeon's diet for this week, but he does allow skim, 1%, and 2% later. I will probably just use almond milk. I prefer it and I know it won't give me any issues. One of my co-workers said that you can buy drops online that will take the lactose out of the milk in 24 hours. That is what our RNY bodies have a hard time with, so if you were really into cow's milk, you could go that route!

You should go for the unsweetened almond milk-

Try adding unflavored Protein powder to broth and cream Soups. I use Isopure unflavored and it is a change from sweet Protein Shakes. One scoop has 26g of protein.

I had my surgery Dec 18, 2012.... I had a hard time Also! So I was eating Mashed Beans and Egg whites.... After Surgery for some our system changes our taste buds change, it may take awhile for things to get back to Normal, last week was the 1st time I was able to drink a shake and not get sick! But my Nutritionist said that Syntrax Nector or Premier r the ones most people can handle better along w/ Ungury. Syntrax sometimes has samples 866.333.7403 or ungury 800.517.5111 or check thr website. GOOD LUCK.

Should Protein powder be added to Water or milk?

You can add it to either. Low/no fat milk, soy or otherwise gives it added protein and helps it taste better. For me that is a huge bonus. My fave is a scoop of GNC pro performance whey protein powder (in chocolate flavor) with a cup of lite vanilla silk (soy). It's 26g of protein. Tastes better than chocolate milk.

Try the lite, 70 calories for 1 cup (at least for the lite vanilla soy silk that I drink). 1.5g fat, 5g sugar and 6g Protein.< /p>

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
