JessecaMartina 4 Posted December 10, 2016 Has anyone tried pure Protein? I like it and easier to find at stores. Which is better pure or premier? I also buy unjury powder and make it in my nutribullet. I love the chicken broth too.

bossportsgal 136 Posted December 10, 2016 I bought the kit and really like the taste. But for on the go, I use pure Protein. I'll add some PB powder and shake it up. But I'm reading a lot about Premier Protein being good. I'm going to try that Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackieemac 36 Posted December 10, 2016 I used shakeology.. I know it's expensive but honestly I was happy to spend the extra money knowing it's something that i can stomach but even actually enjoy. Of course just like anything else you get tired of it, but I was happy with my choice to use shakeology ! I'm day four post op so i won't know if I'll still like it once I move to full liquids.. but for pre op it was great!

Stacey99 5 Posted December 10, 2016 Ok people, let's talk Protein shakes. Which do you love, which do you hate & why? I'm pre-op and saw my surgeon today. I've gained and he wants me to start drinking Protein Shakes now to help me lose but I have no idea where to start. Sent from my SM-G935V using the BariatricPal App I like Premier Protein. They are at Sam's Club & Walmart. I like the chocolate pre-mixed ones. At Sam's, they are $1.36 each (at least in Texas) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
