Cyr 16 Posted January 16, 2015 Hey guys !!! 1 week post op and 5 lbs down !!!! Woohoo excited to say the least so I am doing syntax nectar currently BUT want to switch to premier for the conscience of on the go Protein and not having to buy a huge jug of Protein powder . Currently do 1 scoop (23g) and 6g of milk=6oz but don't drink it all only about 4 oz . How do you do premier in your diet with a small stomach and in how many intervals ? Since I'm so new post op I want to try to do 4 small 4 oz meals and meet 70gtams of Protein ... What do others do to meet their protein goals?!?!? Thanks in advance I am just thinking if I make a switch to premier I will be drinking way too much !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brians147 50 Posted January 16, 2015 I've drank a Premier Protein everyday since a month after my (MGB) mini gastric bypass surgery on April 23rd, 2014. Initially I came back from Tijuana lactose intolerant so had to swallow some of the most wretched Protein powders imaginable. I couldn't even do whey. Then the lactose intolerance passed and I started with the Premier because it was premixed and tasted great. I haven't looked back since. I did as you are doing, and sipped a few ounces an hour until I got the entire carton down. That gave me 30 gms of the 70 gms Of protein o needed daily. I now drink a full Premier each morning when I get up along with my multi-Vitamins and minerals. I mix a carton with about 3oz of Skim Milk for more protein. I find it tames the chocolate down a bit. I then wait an hour and have a couple slices of multigrain toast with a couple of eggs, toast and or Peanut Butter with a sliced banana on top. Mmmmm. In the past 8 months I've lost 127 lbs and am 4 from goal. I'm now running 25 miles a day so I've upped my Premier shakes to 3/day as I burn 1200 calories a day running but was only taking in 900. I can only get the chocolate Premier shakes at costco here in Canada but have tried the vanilla ones. Tastes great too. Haven't had the strawberry but wish.

Elode 8,093 Posted January 16, 2015 @@Cyr I was doing 2 shakes a day with the premier, now I do one chocolate ready made shake with one scoop of Syntrax PB cookie mixed In for 53 grams of Protein (14oz) I eat though. If I don't feel much like eating I will make two that day and easily get 106 grams in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
