Yes too much sugar:

Premier Protein strawberries and cream has 30 g Protein and only 1 g sugar

EAS Advantage Carb Control Protein has 17g protein and no sugar

Just some suggestions.

I prefer Pure Protein Drinks. initially I bought the frosty chocolate with 23g Protein, 1g sugar. it is absolutely delicious! then I thought I'd be smart and bought the one with 35g protein. that was a mistake. that one has a more chalky taste and not nearly as tasty as the 23g. my nutritionist said both were fine. they have lots of favors.

I agree - Pure Protein is a really good one, and I also like Muscle Milk Light in both Choc and vanilla. They 14 oz size (too big by half) only has 12 grams sugar, and two of those are in the Fiber. It has 25 grams protein - and lots of drug stores carry it, as does Target.

Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much sugar. I am a recovering sugar carb addict before going into recovery (6 month supervised diet) I would probably be licking my lips rubbing my hands together at the sound of 26grams of sugar lmbo.....just kidding but seriously that's a lot of sugar and I think you could find one u really like without that much sugar. Premier Protein, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury & Chike r a few with a very low sugar content but r very tasty to me. Each person palate is different but u will find one that u like.

Out of the 3 I mentioned even though I love the taste of Chike the best it has a higher carb count of I believe 9 grams of carb depending on the flavor. My Bariatrician viewed the nutritional values and said it's fine but ur plan could be different. Sending skinny vibes ur way and much success on ur WLS journey.

I add extract to my shakes vanilla, coconut , sometimes chocolate coco it helps . I also try to drink it without smelling it , ugh they stink! I wish someone would make one taste like a oreo milkshake ????

I prefer the Protein Powder to the rtd ones, but my favorite rtd is ensure high Protein. Muscle milk was ok to me before surgery but I can't tolerate it now. As far as powders, I like Syntrax Nectar chocolate and double stuffed cookie.

        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
