Protein Powders...



Recommended Posts

Apparently since my sleeve on 10/21, the taste of any whey Protein Powder tastes awful to me. I can barely finish one. Found one but fear the calories are too high.. Any suggestions for a better tasting powder? ? Thanks

I met a guy who took plain vanilla shakes and the got different flavors of sugar free Jello powder (pistachio, bandanna, pimkin ect) he would keep them in salt shakers and sprinkle them on the vanilla shakes so he would have different flavors. Thought that was a cool idea

Anyone in Texas, my dietician told me I could drink MooTopia from HEB instead of protien shakes. It is 12g of Protien and only 90 calories in 8 ozs.

Was sleeved on 10/28. And went through the same thing. The only thing I drink is premier Protien vanilla. 30g of Protien and tasted great

I got a flavored Isopure today. 50 grams of Protein in one serving! Anyone else drink isopure?

I've tried a couple of the Isopure ready to drink, and I hate them. They taste like soap! Instead, I've been making my own thin flavored drinks using Syntrax Nectar unflavored protein with a tube of Crystal Lite. Grape is my favorite.

I LOVE Syntrax nectar Protein powders. My favorite is the chocolate Truffle. My 12 year old son plays hockey and I make him a Protein shake with that after his practices and games. He loves it and says it takes just like chocolate milk.

I recently tried Myoplex Lite ready to drink because it was on my surgeon's list for the pre-op diet and I wanted to jump start my pre-op weight loss. The Cookies & Cream flavor was actually pretty good. I would definitely purchase that flavor again. On the other hand, the strawberry Cream flavor was horrible! Very fake tasting and the thickish, slimy consistency was like drinking Milk of Magnesia or Pepto Bismol. Bleccch!

Also recently tried Syntrax Matrix Simple vanilla flavor. Nowhere near as good as Nectar--probably won't re-purchase. My son tried one Protein Shake with it and says he doesn't like it.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
