Has anyone heard of or tried core power Protein Shakes? They gavd 150 cal and 20 G Protein in the lite. I have tried many and couldn't drink them but these tasted good to me. Just wondering what others think about them.

My lapband was replaced last Monday after 8.5 years. great recovery- zero discomfort

I've been drinking the pure Protein Shakes (35g)

Yesterday, I went to buy whey Protein and mad a fruit smoothie last night-

1scoop vanilla, crushed ice, fruit, 3/4 skim milk. Ive been up with heartburn all night.

Are there different types of whey? I'm bringing this back to the store!

I'm not sure about the whey Protein. I have some i can't tolerate just a thought the heartburn could have been from the fruit this early out.and too acids reflux is pretty common for sleeve patients, a lot of us have to take an acid reducer daily.

I hope you get approved. I am months out now and just recently found out About it signed up and received my shipment about 3 weeks later. I try to drink one a day to supplant what I am able to eat.

      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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
