jc2232 2 Posted September 30, 2016 Hi everyone. I am just getting started with my journey. Im hoping to have surgery in December. I want to get started on Protein Drinks and shakes and I am wondering what brand people recommend either premade or powder. Also what is the average amount of Protein that should be in each drink?

Furmama 9 Posted September 30, 2016 I have been using Biotrust powder, but also really like the Inspire Mexican chocolate that Bariatric Eating has. Many like premixed Protein drinks, too. I try to have 60 grams protein/day--part protein drinks and part protein like on chicken or other sources. I'm nearly 6 months out and still trying to get everything right. Hope everything goes well for you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Djmohr 6,965 Posted September 30, 2016 I only use Premier Protein ready made shakes. They have 30 grams of Protein, 160 calories and 1 gram of sugar. Because they are pre-made there is not fuss, no muss. Also no grit and they dont stink like most protein drinks I think because of the design of the container they come in.

tenseintexas 182 Posted September 30, 2016 I use premier Protein for one meal and then GENEPRO medical grade powder missed with something for another meal ( it's pretty gross) - the body can't absorb more than 30 at a time I read - so I do it at two separate meals Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
