In the universe in which I reside, it is impossible to get 30 grams of Protein out of 15 grams of Protein Powder. GENEPRO makes claims that, to put it mildly, I do not understand given the laws of physics. I personally would not touch the stuff. But I know others who swear by great results.

Vlogger Melanie Sliced Thinner has a great vlog on this backed up by research and comments from GENEPRO. Check it out and you might opt for a different vendor.

Not unless you add 15 grams of my instant protein Water, which I just happen to have right here in my bag of magic tricks. The line forms to the right.

I have no knowledge of Protein suppplements, so I'll make no suggestions. As to working out, however, there's no reason not to go walking. Walking counts and moving is good.

At some time it may help you to know that weight is weight regardless of the tissue that's being burned. You are losing weight. It's the source that you care about. You probably meant "fat."

If your surgery practice is nearby, you may be able to get samples of various products from the RD.

      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.
