Premade protein shakes



Recommended Posts

My fave by far is the strawberry Premier Protein. A pretty close 2nd is the banana Pure Protein.

A few others that aren't bad, just not my top choice include:

vanilla Premier Protein

Cookies and Cream Pure Protein

strawberry Pure Protein

Beyond these, I've tried all others that are available in retail stores around here (GNC, Muscle Milk, Atkins, Weight Watchers, Isopure, Myoplex, LeanBody, ISS, HydroxyCut) and they all either have too little protein to keep me feeling full more than 2 hours or the taste is so bad I can't choke them down.

Unfortunately though, like so much else with this journey, all of our tastes are different. There are plenty of others on here who say they can't stand the ones that I love, etc...

My favorite premade shakes are vanilla Premier Protein (I purchase at Costco) and the Believe shakes from bariatriceating.com.

Where do you buy Pure Protein? Does anyone have a problem with lactose intolerance? I tried the Premier Protein (yep Costco) and couldn't handle them because of the lactose. In the past I've used a Soy based Protein shake called Slim Quest which I got online. 20gms. of Protein each and pretty good taste, but I'm not sure if I should use so much soy protein. Will ask at my pre-op appointment.

I buy the Pure Protein from Vitamin Shoppe.

They sell the cans individually to experiment with, but also in cases which brings the cost down a bit. I believe they also have them at GNC too.

The unjury ones were pretty good. The banana one was tolerable. We had a tasting at nutrition counseling. They can be mixed with whatever and they will send you samples.< /p>

I've only seen Unjury in powder form. Where did you find it already premade?

      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.
