Traveling to Brisbane, need protein shakes..



Recommended Posts

Hi all! I am going to Brisbane (from the USA) to help get my son situated in college next week. I am on the pureed stage and wonder what Protein shakes you have and where do you get them from?

I use powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury and order from their website, unjury.com. It comes both in larger containers and individual packets. I find the individual packets easier to carry around.

That being said, I'm really jealous of your trip. Have an awesome time!

Do any of the local grocery or health stores carry the ready to drink shakes? I really don't want to take anything over there but was hoping to find some while I am there. Out here I can find some Muscle Milk shakes at our local 7-11 type stores and gas station mini marts. My dr. gave me the okay to start the soft foods stage while there but I'd like to know there's a back up if needed.

Does Unjury have one that is unflavored? One that I can just add to yogurt or something? I really don't want to get into a habit of using a blender all the time and can't drink just shaken milk or Water added to powder type shakes, but if I can mask it into cottage cheese or yogurt without it tasting raunchy, I'd do it!

They do have an unflavored option. I confess that I haven't tried it. I don't mind mixing milk with the chocolate and vanilla. If you try it, let know how it is.

      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.
