BEST protien shake option



Recommended Posts

Hello,

I am looking for recommendations for the best Protein Shake out there. I don't care if it is pre-mixed or not. I have looked at powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury, but it seems like people are saying that though the Protein is good, it doesn't have any other Vitamins or minerals. I am looking for the best most well rounded option. Low carb, high quality protein, Vitamin and minerals. Cost isn't a huge issue, mostly looking for high quality. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you.

I like Premier Protein as well the chocolate is my favorite. I don't like the vanilla personally. The container is closable too so it can be re used it saved I mean and it's good for you with 30 grams of Protein 5 carbs and 1 gram of sugar I believe.

Thanks all, premier Protein is what I currently drink and I agree, great taste and great macros. I just wondered if the Protein not being a whey isolate mattered or not?

I think my nut told me today that whey isolate only means it's disolvable and Water soluble

Primier Protein offers 30grams of Protein in an 11 oz bottle. Made me nauseous after surgery. 5 weeks post now and can drink it again. If you go to the website they offer various recipes. I just made the pumpkin shake with a bottle of vanilla Premier Protein and it was great! They have an apple pie recipe using apple sauce. I don't add any additional sugar.

Inspire protein powders are also a great choice if you want new flavors. Peanut Butter cup is good.

I really like Inspire Protein powder. They mix very easily, extremely low carb, 20 grams of protein per shake. They don't have that protein aftertaste and not gritty in texture. Many different flavors. Also, the Inspire is very gentle on my stomach.

I also like the Premier Protein.< /p>

Having a slight freak out. Im 11 days out from sleeve surgery. I've been using the GNC total lean 25 Protein powder and it didn't occur to me that it had a lot of carbs. My NUT approved it. But it has 17g of carbs and 3g of sugar and 25g of Protein per 2 scoops (serving size). Im reading comments on here about protein and now im scared it's going to hinder my weight loss. I've been trying to get 3 down a day but it's hard. Doesn't help that it's gross. It's hard for me to aquire these things at the moment. Im unemployed and my family helps me. My sister buys most of the stuff i need. I don't want to bother her again. If my NUT says it's ok should i just keep with it and finish what i have?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
