Alrighty everybody I need some advice! I had my surgery June 27th and have been struggling to get all my Protein in. I loved the premier shakes pre op but can't stand them now. So I bought some unflavored Isopure powder yesterday. Tried to add a scoop of it to my mashed potatoes tonight but I did something wrong and it came out horrible lol. So what is the best way to get all the protein in? Or some of the best foods to add the powder too?

Unflavored powder in sugar free pudding was the only way I could really stand it. Add a little at a time to make sure you're not making the flavor/texture too unbearable to consume! Also I bought the Isopure rtd in fruit flavors and bought corresponding Powerade zero flavors. I'd mix some Powerade in with the Protein Drink to make it have less of an after taste

The GENEPRO has been helpful to me. It's flavorless and you get a lot of Protein for a small scoop. I bought it on Amazon.< /p>

I was gonna buy some GENEPRO but I keep seeing bad reviews about it too.. Then the lady at gmc suggest the Isopure powder. The only thing I've managed to do that I can drink so far is mix it with some Water and put a squirt of watermelon flavoring in it. But still, I would like to find a much easier solution.

Ooh I tried that in mashed potatoes as well big mistake. I like unflavored in Water (with lime) or broth so far. Trying it in brewed iced tea later this weekend.

I also could not stomach some of my shakes post op. It took a week or two to get back to some. PB2 powder helps.

I love love love (right now) powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken flavor.

Also I got the unjury starter pack to try some flavors. It is a personal think I only like their chicken and unflavored and I am not even trying strawberry because that is not my thing.

I have 4 individual packs of 3 flavors. If anyone interested DM me and I can drop in envelope to you!

Ps: I tried GENEPRO and their company site and story are just too bizarre but to each their own!

I was drinking Isopure but it was making me sick then my NUT told me to dilute it with water.... Much better ! Also okios Greek yogurt triple zero has a lot of protein- lived on the Vanella - still do. Another tip is Iso 100 Protein Powder - very high Protein low sugar and carbs mixed with 25 calorie almond milk...delish I get it at the Vitamin shop.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
