Protein Shake help for taste and smell?



Recommended Posts

nectar Protein is good, get a ten bag sample pack to choose ur flavor, it is working for me, so far i like crystal sky and apple, trying them before surgery and before I buy big containers

Do you know where we can find a ten bag sample? I keep finding links to expired offers. :(

I went to the website and found a phone number. They sent 15 samples for $15

I use nectar products. The Protein shakes are delicious and not chalky nor do they have a strong smell.

Today I tried a new drink cupcake batter by Protein milkshake. It truly tasted just like cupcake batter! Super yummy, but who can drink an entire cup of batter? I will try the other flavored real soon. Especially since they have a money back guarantee. I bought on Amazon, but they have their own site.

I have found that mixing "Chocolate Mousse" flavored Bariatric Fusion in a weak decaffeinated coffee solution actually tastes pretty good. I drank it full strength pre-op and since I'm just about a week post op, I'm now doing just 1 scoop in 8 oz of weak Decaf coffee. You might have to add just a touch of stevia or something, depending on how you like your "Café Mocha".

Before I get slammed, decaf coffee/tea still retain some diuretic properties, but not nearly as much as regular. My bariatric team was ok with it - considering I'm getting in way more than what I need to fld wise. I also make sure to drink 3 8 oz glasses of milk with the Bariatric fusion for the added 8 gm of pro each.[/quote

I also hate the smell of the Protein shakes. They really make me want to gag. I'm trying really hard to tough it out. I'm 4 weeks post op and have lost a good amount of weight but I know I'm not getting enough Protein. I just ordered some Protein powder to put in my oatmeal and my doc said I could add 1 Protein Bar a day.

      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.
