Newbie here! Protein suggestions please!



Recommended Posts

Hello! I am a October 8, 2014 sleever. I am from Houston, Texas and my doctor was Dr. Brad Waggoner! Highly recommended! The only problem I am having so far is getting all the necessary Protein. I need some suggestions if what everyone else is using! Currently I use Atkins shakes at 11 ounces each and 15 grams of Protein. Very yummy!!! I have bought others but they all tasted really bad and would like some recommendations. Have any of you tried the protein Soups out there? What other liquid form protein actually tastes good?? Help!!!!!!

Unjury has a Protein chicken Soup that I plan on using after I have surgery in December. It has 21 grams of protein. Also, I'll be doing the Premier Protein shakes too. I've been looking at the Syntha 6 vanilla ice cream flavor too. It has 22g of protein but I'd prefer not to have the 15g of carbs that it has. Good luck and hope to be joining you on the loser's bench soon.

Premier Protein shakes are ready made. I am almost 11 months out and I still have one almost every day. Usually I have a Quest bar too - loaded with Protein and Fiber. White chocolate raspberry - yum. Low fat cheese sticks. Sugar and fat free Greek yogurt. All very pleasant and easy. I am down to size 6 from size 20.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
