Georges's Restore?

[j16 166]

Does anyone else use George's Restore for their Protein Shake? I really like it when I make it with a cup of skim milk and 1/4 cup unsweetened apple juice but am not sure if I will be able to have it after surgery (with the milk and apple juice it has 24 p, 16 c, 0 f). I have been trying out different Protein Shakes and having a hard time finding one I like. I also looked up CR ratings and am concerned about some of the additives in the premixed types.

No, nor can I say I've ever heard of it. I use Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard. They have 20 different flavors and the powder mixes instantly with just a spoon.

I use Terra's whey is it organic and sweetened with stevia. I also use an unflavored, organic powder that I mix into foods. After surgery you will need to nix the apple juice and swap it with Water as the carbs are too high in the macronutrients total that you listed. Ideally you will find a low carb powder and then add milk and/or water.

The powder has zero carbs but it would prob taste really bad without something sweet.

I make powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes in a blender. I think the taste is good, with the advantage of being 100% Protein isolate (100% absorbable protein) and very low carbs.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have tried the vanilla Unjury and although I can get it down it's a little sweet for me. Do you think I would be able to use applesauce as a sweetener or are stevia or fake sweeteners the only option?

Probably? Have you tried it? How do you know unless you try it?

[j16 166]

Good point-lol! I will try it without sweetener this morning and report back.

[j16 166]

Ok I tried it ???? Actually, it wasn't bad - more like drinking a glass of milk.

Many years ago I gave up refined sugar and sweeteners for a period of time. One of the things I learned was that many of the things I always automatically added sweetener or sugar to didn't really need it.

For instance, I had always added sweetener to "unsweetened" Cereal. Come to find out that even "unsweetened" cereals generally have sugar in them already.

Fortunately, I've always preferred unsweetened tea!
