Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Okay, THAT was disgusting.



Recommended Posts

I had ordered the mini Protein sampler (without the book) from BariatricEating.com. It came with a bottle of vanilla Very berry Protein Delite On the Go, where it has a premeasured scoop of powder in the bottle and you just add Water and shake. Apparently, this brand has chunks of stuff in the powder, freeze-dried fruit in this case. I just tried it, and it is pretty damn disgusting. The flavor of the actual Protein Drink is not horrible (not good, either), but the problem is the chunks. I have found that I don't LIKE chunks in my Protein Drinks, it makes me gag. Plus, it looks like vomit. It mixes up to a grayish-purple with dark chunks in it.

Soooooo, I take it you won't be ordering it again? wink.gif
Not that brand, at least. I still have a bunch of other samples to try, so I'm hoping the others are better.

That's the GREAT thing about their sample packs--you aren't stuck with a month's supply of patented Gag-A-Maggot.

I found the nectar "Lemon Tea" to be the worst so far, but I'm a fine Southern woman, and I take my iced tea seriously.

Cerrin,

Right back atcha. The first time I saw your siggy, I thought, "The only way there's a skinny woman in me is if I accidentally sat on one at the ball park" :):eek::confused:

All,

I have found the ultimate (for-now, for-me, your-mileage-may-vary) Protein Drink. Tastes just like a Smoothie-King pineapple/orange/coconut fruit smoothie. YU--UMM:

1 scoop Jay Robb's whey Protein (Pina Colada)

1 packet Crystal Light On-the-Go (Sunrise Orange)

16oz Water (water flavored, duh)

============

153 calories, 24g whey isolate Protein

Jay Robb's is available at the Vitamin Shoppe, or you can order samples online at Jay Robb Official Site - The Fruit Diet, Fruit Flush 3 Day Detox, All Natural Protein powders

Vanilla Ice Cream Gold Standard whey 100% Protien by (ON) is the besssssttttt stuff out there. You can just add anything, mix it with a spoon and go. Great flavor. Get it at GNC. I know I sound like a comercial but, I, along with some good banding friends enjoy the fact that we can add Water or milk or juice or friut and it will still taste good and wont make you gross out.

Laurend, could you just strain it? If you like the shake I mean.
I really don't like the flavor enough to go to the trouble of straining it. It's just not good.
I found the nectar "Lemon Tea" to be the worst so far, but I'm a fine Southern woman, and I take my iced tea seriously.
I haven't tried that one yet, but their Roadside Lemonade is gross. The Apple Ecstasy and Strawberry-Kiwi flavors aren't too bad, if you like very sweet, candy-flavored things.

      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.
