Tyani 117 Posted October 19, 2016 Not understanding how I gained 4 pounds , do all I'm pose except the Protein Shakes until I find one that agrees with me. My primary care said the G2 Gatorades might have done it because they have 7 grms of sugar but that's what my surgeon suggested that I drink with my Water as well. Who has RNY and gain is what I'm saying being 5weeks out from surgery Sent from my N9520 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CINNAMON 2015 43 Posted October 20, 2016 Hi Tyani, I use the brand Milk shake BAR for my Protein Shakes. They have several flavors, are not gritty, no aftertaste and they even taste good when mixed with water! I get them from Amazon, they are supposed to be available at Whole Foods Market in the beginning of 2017. I also use a drink called Isopure Ready To Drink, they also have several flavors, my favorite is Blue Raspberry. They come in 20 oz bottles and have 40 grams of Protein. They are very good and have no aftertaste. I hope this helps you! Protein Powder. 1-888-582-2580, www.proteinmilkshakebar.com, Best Wishes & Good Luck!!!!

Tyani 117 Posted October 20, 2016 It could be not enough Protein, too much sugar or carbs or even not enough Water. Just keep working at getting that Protein in. I haven't been drinking my Protein Shakes , I don't have no sugar at least nothing I'm not suppose to have as far as sodas candy cakes I don't eat or have any of that . what I do have is salmon, Spanish, sugar free freeze pops , or sugar free ice cream. I have a half of boiled egg. Love me some Water. I did have a bacon sandwich. And I was drinking G2 Gatorade which I just stopped on Tuesday . what could have put the 6 pounds on me? I don't work out to be honest anymore just don't have the strength. My menstral just came on yesterday but got news that I gained Tuesday. So I don't quite understand Yani Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
