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.

      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?
