Protien drinks



Recommended Posts

There are so many different kinds of protien drinks, and they are expensive, I know that they should have about 15 grams of protien and be sugar free. but what has everyone found to be the best tasting??:hungry:

I am afraid with this question---you are going to get lots of opposing answers!!! Only because everyones tastes vary!!! Which is perfectly normal---but makes it difficult to rely on others experience.

I will say, I drank Zero Carb Isopure during the original Clear Liquids, they had 40 grams of Protein and zero carbs or sugar. They come in several flavors, and some were tolerable, others were down right gaggy IMHO. But I have seen others promote the flavors I had the most problem with!!! I drank them just the same! They helped me---and I viewed them like any other "medicine". I also used Unjury powder for shakes. It was not bad in my opinion. But I can also tolerate the Slim Fast Protien shakes, and have seen others that say they throw them up instantly!

Several companies offer sample packages. You might also consider something unflavored, and using the sugar free syrups, or sf pudding mix to flavor some shakes.

Walmart sells several options, and most can be bought in smaller amounts, and GNC even has some here in a cooler that can be bought singly---so you could try a few, find something you like, and then can likely order it online much cheaper.

Good Luck---hope you find something to make your taste buds happy!

      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.
