Protein drinks- a delicious one'



Recommended Posts

Hi.

I am 6 days into my 21 day pre-op diet and wanted to share for those who keep trying shakes. Premier Protein shakes (for me) is the best on the market. I have loved every flavor so far ( haven't tried caramel yet) and it's even enjoyed by our 12 year old very active- picky-eater son.

Maybe I can help someone save a little money by encouraging you to try Premier first! Yum

Also wanted to ask what people make their powdered Protein drinks out of to make them taste as delicious as the

Pre made ones.

I ordered a tub of chocolate today from Amazon but don't want to hurt the liver shrink during this pre op diet by mixing in too many calories, fat, etc.

Where do you get them from

I get the pre made ones at Walmart but ordered the powder from Amazon. Gets expensive drinking 4-5 pre made ones a day. Walmart has them for almost $7 for 4 drinks.

Premier Protein Caramel is DELISH! I start my pre-op diet on Wednesday but I was sure to sample a few flavors. costco has the 18-pack for $20 on sale. It's originally $25, but there's a manufacturer's coupon. Enjoy and good luck!

I can't taste Vitamin or grit in the pre made. Not that I've noticed anyhow.

I have seen Premier Protein on Amazon in all different flavors.

Quick note...it is milk based so if you are lactose intolerant this won't work. Found that out today at costco while Protein Drink shopping. I opted for the muscle milk which is whey based, but less Protein than premier.

I can drink Premier but not my favorite and I find caramel and strawberry both have a very artificial taste. My favorite is Syntrax Matrix, I got a bunch of samples of various varieties and flavors and I highly recommend doing that because everyone's tastes are different

      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.
