Need protein drink suggestions, very picky drinker & eater



Recommended Posts

I'm new here and I'm actually doing this for my daughter, but I had Roux-en-y in 2003 so I could also use some good suggestions. (If I should be in a different forum please let me know) My daughter is trying to find a Protein drink that she will like. She likes chocolate, fruit punch & lemonade & that's about it. She's been able to try a few but since they are usually very expensive she can't afford to buy something, not like it & then throw it away. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Hi,

I recommend trying Nature's best Isopure. They have a variety of flavors to choose from. I buy mine at GNC. It has 40 grams of Protein. I am 13 weeks post-op and I still drink one bottle a day. If she is as burnt out on Protein shakes as I was, then she should like the Isopure. :)

Thanks for the replies - where do you get your Syntax nectar? My daughter found BJs Bariatric but they are out of stock on the Lemonade. I did order the sample package with about 4 different flavors that she thinks she might like.

I usually buy it at the Vitamin Shoppe or online through Lucky Vitamins

Check out my bariatric pantry.com. You can order samples of matrix and Syntrax Nectar so she can try out different flavors. Nashua Nutrition.com also has some samples that are reasonable. There you can pick from several brands and flavors. I have ordered from both places numerous times and they are very quick.

      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?
