Liquid Protein



Recommended Posts

I have read awhile back about liquid Protein taken like a medicine. Does anyone know where this can be found? I've looked at Walgreens, GNA and a few other health food stores and am unable to find it.

Do you mean Protein shots? I haven't used them or bought any but I thought they were available at stores like Walmart.< /p>

For condensed Protein I used the ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrates. They gave them to me in the hospital and my surgeon's office carries them. I also can order them online. Initially after surgery I used them undiluted. Now I just add them to my Water bottle. They are 15 grams a packet.

Prostat is a liquid. 15 grams per 1 oz. It can be ordered online. Comes in about 3 or 4 flavors.

Thank you I'll order some. I just had my sleeve surgery on Thursday, so I'm 4 days out and find it hard to get in all of my Protein. How are you doing after your surgery?

@@ad8 - There is a Protein type drink I believe they would call a "shot" that is available in Walmart that is condensed and in a semi-Gelatin type liquid. I think it has something like 20grams of Protein. The only flavor I saw was fruit punch (?), I haven't had a lot of problems so far with finding a way to get my protein intake.

Have you tried the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury non flavored protein?

I'm doing good. Down 60lbs. Been stuck for 3 weeks but I realized I wasn't getting enough protien. Have gone back to tracking closer. I'm almost 5 months out. Hopefully I'm not done losing! I bought the Prostat because I was sick of shakes. It's what we give our ICU patients for wound healing.

I started looking for alternates because its hard to eat that much food. tuna started making me nauseous after the 3rd month.

I'm gonna try tofu. Been researching recipes.< /p>

      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.
