Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted March 9, 2016 Omg, I don't know how to take 70g of Protein a day, and 64 onz of liquid plus purée foods. I'm so lost. It's to Much for my sleeve. I need help I stared to feel very tired One thing you can do is make sure almost everything you consume has Protein. My surgeon allowed all fluids to count toward my 64 oz of Fluid. As mentioned, Premier Protein gives you a lot of protein for a small amount of Fluid. My surgeon said there was no physical reason we couldn't drink three premier Protein shakes (total of 90 grams of protein) in a day the day after surgery. Just keep sipping.

goplay94123 575 Posted March 9, 2016 Yes I find premier Protein the best for me. I don't mind the taste even and haven't gotten tired of them. Which is odd because I wasn't afflicted with a sweet tooth and don't typically like sweet. The vanilla is tasty and so is chocolate. strawberry is blah. Get the premade. I know they seem expensive but I am sure you spent more than 4.50 a day on food before the sleeve. Good luck!!!!

Healthy_life2 8,327 Posted March 9, 2016 @@leonelbreton Something to try. Isopure Water. 40 grams Protein in a bottle. Added bonus is hitting your Water requirement.

con con 142 Posted March 9, 2016 I tried the Isopure but I couldn't get past the taste. I purchased bottle and bottles of it. I thought if I found someone in the San Francisco area that might want to try I would give them away to a good home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waler 330 Posted March 9, 2016 (edited) The Isopure Protein powder I use gives you 50 grams of Protein, no sugar, and no carbs. You should be able to pick up close to 20 more grams in your diet. If not double up on your shakes one In the morning one in the evening. Edited March 9, 2016 by Waler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maxcimax 220 Posted March 9, 2016 I drink the Premier Protein shakes also. If you go to Bariatric Choice, they sell a Jello & hot chocolate that both have about 15g per serving. I love jello & hot chocolate. I will say, if you use the jello, I make it according to the package but add about 1/2 cup of ice after I mix the hot Water & jello mix. This is supposed to be one serving but I find it's more than I can eat at one time. I cut the serving in half & eat it in two servings. Love this stuff.

amandastearns 79 Posted March 9, 2016 I could t get with the Isopure personally but it's worth a try! Also, I have GENEPRO Protein it's tasteless and flavorless so you can add it to just about anything for the extra protein. It comes in handy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jasb88 3 Posted March 9, 2016 I can tolerate Isopure much better than premier or muscle milk Protein Shakes. I think I'm lactose intolerant because my stomach becomes bloated and gassy after drinking those ugh. I normally add crystal light to my isopure to make it taste better.

con con 142 Posted March 10, 2016 Of course I should have tried it before buying 35 bottles!!! But I was purchasing a lot of items before surgery trying to be proactive. I thought I would be a great help with the Protein. I had to purchase online. I couldn't find a store that carried it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kranky813 477 Posted March 10, 2016 @@con con I agree on the Isopure so what I did was make my own concoction. 8oz of Isopure 8oz of the same color gatorade or Powerade - make sure they are the zero ones 8oz of Water Mix all together and enjoy!
