I also prefer Premier Protein shakes. costco has a good price. It's available in my local Costco as well as online. I like all 3 flavors. I like not having to mix powders.< /p>

I agree. Premier is the best!!!.. but I also no longer like the strawberry after surgery... which is a bummer but I put my chocolate in the freezer a little bit before drinking so it has a nice cold semi slushy texture! ...mmmmm

I found Unjury to be the best if you are looking for a powder. I started out with Bariatric Advantage but didn't like the flavor. Unjury also has unflavored and a chicken Soup flavor if you sometimes just do not want something sweet. It is only available on line. I also like Quest for Protein Bars.< /p>

A lot of the recommended powder ones seem so sweet to me since many have Stevia in them which, sadly, i don't care for or another sugar substitute. I hate all the vanilla ones that my nutritionist recommended.

However, luckily, I do have one favorite (I'm currently on day 6 of my two-week pre-op Protein shake prep): Dymatize Elite XT Extended Release banana Nut. It is available on Amazon.< /p>

I've been liking the Premier Protein chocolate ones. I am currently waiting for pre-op surgical testing/clearance.

I like Premier Protein in the chocolate & strawberry. I haven't tried vanilla. They came out with a smaller shake in a mixed berry. I hated it & threw out 3 containers. I could hardly get thru the 1 I did drink. As for the powders I like Syntrax nectar in Vanilla Torte, Fuzzy Navel & a couple of others. You can buy them in individual servings & I recommend buying these until you figure what flavors you want. I also mix my Protein powder with Silk milk. I hate using Water. I get my powder from The Vitamin Shoppe. You can also order it online from their website or from Amazon.< /p>

The unjury chicken Soup is good. I used it a lot at first when my stomach was a bit nauseated. I also have a jar of their unflavored powder that I use Torini sugar free flavors with. Those are really good. I have the vanilla & chocolate. Torini has a website to order from. I don't know of any stores that sell this liquid flavoring.

      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.
