Protein Shakes - 2 weeks post op



Recommended Posts

Someone please help! I've tried to do the Protein Shakes but they are gross. I can't stand milk. I've never liked any kind of milk, so of course it makes the Protein shakes even worse. I bought a whole case of Premier Protein shakes and I try to force myself to drink it but because I hate it so much the very thought of it makes me nauseous. Is there any advice you can give this 2 weeks post op chick?

I use Isopure unflavored Protein in Water with crystal lite flavor packet. It still tastes like water, even with stuff in it.

There are a variety of different types of Protein shakes out there. Need to experiment to find the one that you can tolerate. Getting enough Protein is important to this process. Sometimes you can get samples of a product or buy a single/small product and try these until you find one that you can tolerate.

These flavored liquid Stevia drops will change the way your average Protein shakes taste and the flavors are all natural, calorie and sugar free! So far I've tried English toffee, pumpkin spice, chocolate, cinnamon, vanilla creme, root beer and valencia orange. They made my 2 week pre-op Optifast shakes super delish. Give them a try!

Isopure also has pre-mixed fruit flavored drinks with 40g of Protein per/bottle. They are very sweet and remind me of an extra sweet gatorade or fruit punch. Most GNC's have them in their cooler and they are buy 3 get one free. The only ones I really liked were the grape and the apple melon. I still have some in my fridge I'm thinking of making them into popcicles.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
