Protein shake question



Recommended Posts

Hello I left a Protein Shake out all day t was a Premier Protein shake that I had blended with ice but had to leave it. When I got back home that night I had poured it out in the sink. It did not drain down the sink so I washed with Water and still it did not wash down the drain so I had to pick up the big glob and throw away in the trash. Has anyone else had this happen to them, and my next question is what are we really putting in our body with these Protein Shakes?

That sounds pretty disgusting! I haven't tried the Premier Protein shakes, so I don't know what all is in them. I make my own shakes using pure whey Protein isolate, half a cup of soy milk, Water, ice, psyllium husk powder (for fiber), and sugar-free flavored syrups. I have not experienced anything like what you did.

The really weird part is that those pre-mixed shakes are stored at room temperature in the store, right? And they remain in a liquid form. I don't know why blending it with ice like you did, then leaving it to sit at room temperature would affect the consistency at all other than to maybe dilute it even more as the ice melted.

Yea I know. It was so disgusting though. And I've been drinking them almost daily for a while. I'm 13 months out and only drink then now for Maintenence.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

      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!
