I'm thinking about trying some Protein powders after my surgery on Tuesday. I've already used the ready made Premier Protein shakes. What are some of your favorite protein POWDERS?

I personally stick to Premier Protein chocolate. I have not found any powders that I like or can tolerate. I do use Unjury unFlavored in some of my foods, in small amounts I can deal with it.

I LOVE Magnum Quattro chocolate Love. I have three other Protein powders, but the chocolate Love is the absolute best.

Hello all I am new to this forum and scheduled for surgery on April 21 and today I purchased premiere Protein shakes but didn't see any unflavored powder at Costco's for my Soup. I saw a youtube tutorial where a young lady was talking about GENEPRO and asked my nutritionist about it and she looked it up and didn't recommend it so I didn't order it.

advice pls!!!

Unjury chicken Soup flavor Protein powder is what I use in my soup and unflavored unjury is what I bought to add to various other things.

While I like the Premier Protein, I've set up camp in two new places nowadays. I absolutely love the Syntrax Nectars like the other folks who've posted. As long as I make them in a blender, let them "de-foam" overnight, they're good to go for my Water bottles the next day- Fuzzy Navel is the best so far with 46g whey isolate in my 24 oz. water bottle. Zero Carbs. I also enjoy the Pure Protein banana cream ready made shakes for a nice change from the chocolate/vanilla parade- 35g protein in an 11 oz. can. 1 Carb.

i'm using the Bariatric Advantage vanilla and choclate/peanut butter powder shakes. The bariatric center sells them so just decided to stick with what they have in office. I like them. They taste better than GNC lean. I also loved the Atkins shakes but they aren't allowed.

      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.

      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.
