Protein and thank you!



Recommended Posts

Hey all,

Just wanted to suggest a Protein solution that I found per a suggestion from this board.

I can't take another Protein shake. I just can't do it. I've been on them for a month now and I'm fairly confident I'll never willfully drink one again. I'm only 6 days post op and since I'm so sick of them I came to this app and saw someone suggest Protein Water. Water is the only thing I ever want to drink. I don't want the shakes or anymore Gatorade. I went on Amazon and found liquid Protein by Bariatric Choice.

My goodness has this been a blessing! To his point I've barely been able to consume anything besides plain water (I've always loved drinking water). But now I get something similar in taste to Crystal Light with 15g of protein per serving. You just add the Liquid Protein to the water and sip sip sip!

I can't tell you how happy this has made me. I now feel a lot more confident about being able to stick to my doctor's requirements without feeling absolutely miserable and deprived during his liquid phase.

Also, I was on here feeling pretty low in the days following my surgery. I'm sure I'll have more of them and I know you all will be there to lift me up, so I sincerely thank you all for your support. I'm more of lurker than a poster but I just wanted to share my protein find and my gratitude.

I drink that too! It reminds me of jolly ranchers. I add crushed ice and mio drops to give it more flavor. The shakes were making me sick so now I stick with liquid Protein and boost

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
