Costco Premier Protein



Recommended Posts

Has anyone tried Costco's Premier Protein? It has 30 grams of Protein if you have tried it was it good? Which flavor did you like best? Just starting this process and would appreciate feedback. Thank you.

Love it, wouldn't use anything else. I have to get it at Sam's Club and they still just have chocolate and vanilla. I prefer the chocolate. The vanilla is ok if I am putting fruit in it to make a smoothie but I sure recommend the Premier.

They are really good.

My nutritionist and surgeon don't allow them as part of their program and I wish they would.

They come in chocolate, vanilla and strawberry at costco.

Good luck in your journey of WLS.

Shmily,

The reason why is it doesn't have the right Protein in them in their opinion.

I don't understand it since everyone else seems to be able to drink them on their programs.

I follow the guidelines that they have given me so I don't drink them any more.

I use Jay Robb whey Protein powder made with stevia instead.

I have been using Premier Protein shakes - chocolate flavor - since before my surgery. It was the brand my NUT recommended. Love them! I drink half in the morning and half in the evening.

Chelly, my sister uses the Jay Robb protien and is really happy with it. Thank you for sharing!

It seems as though chocolate is the favorite flavor so I bought some today. Can't wait to try it tomorrow!

Is it better if you refrigerate it or can it just be tossed in your purse and drink it room temp? Any thoughts there?

Thank you all so much for sharing your thoughts with me! :-)

Absolutely drink it cold. When I am on the go, I take a little 6 pk ice chest....

when I am at home, I put it into my magic bullet and add some crushed ice or a big spoon of greek yogurt and blend it....I have added frozen fruit but not always. The vanilla is good that way, with fruit. Also I bought Capella flavored drops and one I have makes the chocolate taste like an almond joy. I also have some SF Torani in Hazelnut, add a little of that for a different taste. Sams Club has this by Kahlua and I got some coffee Syrup in SF. Yummy.....

You are welcome. If you put your frozen fruit or ice in last it will same on your bullet motor and blend easier. I also put my Myralax in my mixture every morning. I do my own frozen fruit from fres so there is no added sugar but I do watch the amount of fruit I put in ....

      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.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
