New whey protein shots



Recommended Posts

Just wanted to share these "shots" that I found. They are a little pricey, but they have 42grams of Protein in 3.5 ounced of Fluid. They are very sweet and taste ok. I like they grape. They come in handy if you are having trouble getting your Protein in. I am still in my liquids phase, but beyond that I plan on keeping a couple on hand for when I need that extra protein I didnt get in my diet. You can find them at Walmart too.

Don't go there. They get their protein from collagen and Gelatin, which are low quality Proteins your body can't use. If you search this forum for "collagen" you will find more info.

I bought these too because they say whey Protein isolate and caesin protein isolate in addition to the hydrolized collagen.

I use these as well. My nut/physician recommended them. They allow me to get a large amount of Protein in a small volume and given that most Protein drinks make me gag is helpful. While I have competed in a triathlon, I don't think my metabolic needs are as high as triathlete. If you look at more research, especially bodybuilding, it is recommended. Given that I plan to use them only for a short time until I transition to a full diet, I am not too worried about the perceived poor quality.

I drink the Acai berry and watermelon for Breakfast. Bottoms up!

I will read the article.

My surgeon suggests them also...I only plan on using them while on my full liquids phase then just having them as a back up when I move into full phase of eating. But I will research them some more.

I really like your attitude :) great response.... when I was newer on this forum there was a lot of discussion about these. I never researched them myself but the general consensus was that they wouldn't be absorbed properly and best not to use them. This was back in October or before.

Thank you Seela.... If anyone ever offers advice on something and has stuff to back it up...I do look at it then make the best choice for myself. I actually haven't had one in a few days and I do have others ways to get Protein in and I would rather do it with something that is good quality.

Thank you mama spike for the information.

You all are so helpful.

        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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
