Traveling with the Sleeve



Recommended Posts

I travel quite a bit for work (33 times last year) and when I had my band would find it really hard to stay in the game when traveling. It's so much harder (I feel like) when you don't know the area you are in, deal with a late flight so grocery shopping is not an option and at the hotel might not have a refrigerator. One idea I had was to pack my 1 pound Oster blender in my suitcase with pre portioned Protein. What are ways, tips and tricks you stay on point when traveling?

I scoped out on-line, more info about the room (refrigerator) and what was open 24 hours in the area (Wal-Mart, CVS, Walgreens, etc).

I would prep Protein Shakes in ziplock bags for each day then pack them in a shaker bottle. Would also pack high quality Protein Bars in my suitcase. Continental Breakfast is often very carb heavy but fruit, coffee and a Protein is usually available. I used to spend 2-3 nights per week in a hotel so it becomes impairs rice to build a routine for yourself. Always took workout clothes because if nothing else you can run the stairs or jog locally.

Darn auto correct should say it becomes imperative

I'm 4wks post-op sleeve, recently had to travel for my husbands work, I was so frustrated upon arrival to find the room had no frig or microwave. So we went to walgreens (open 24hrs thank God) got a cooler and drinks for the room. Kept it filled with ice from hotel and was able to have my Protein Drinks there at least. Brought my ninja blender. Ice was free like most hotels. I also used my restaurant finder app for places like Panera bread, French onion Soup strained was great. The key for me was planning.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
