Special K Protein Water? Fiber?



Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if Special K Protein Water enhancers are okay to drink? It has 6 grams of protein and 5 grams of Fiber. If it is not okay, does anyone know a similar product that can add flavor and protein but not the thickness of shakes?

I don't know anything about Special K Protein Water (just watch the sugar, I know their shakes are loaded) but when I was first post op (and even now) I liked/like drinking Isoure Protein Water. It is similar to Gatorade in the sense that it comes in different flavors and the taste is similar but it is high protein, low sugar. I actually will drink 1/2 a bottle a day and cut it w/ G2 (half Isopure and 1/2 G2). Good luck!

They are OK to drink, but really not much Protein. Syntrax Nectar has a whole line of flavors with a water/juice consistency instead of a thick shake. 23g protein per scoop. I add my own fiber supplement to my Protein Drinks.< /p>

I use the Syntrax nectar. It is so much thinner than the regular Protein shakes. Here is the web site I order mine from. Also you can get 20.00 off your first order. https://www.bariatricchoice.com/rewardsref/index/refer/id/113961/

They are all thinner like tea and lemonade. I like the fuzzy navel, Roadside Lemonade, chocolate truffle, and Cappuccino. I sometimes add crystal lite lemonade to the roadside lemonade. Then I mix the cappuccino with Decaf coffee and little skim milk. I have also mixed the chocolate truffle with decaf coffee and skim milk. These are my favorite flavors and gives me enough of a variety that I don't get bored with them. I did just order the lemon tea flavor. I have a friend that loves it. Hopes this helps.

      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.
