HELP !!!! Had sugar by accident



Recommended Posts

I picked up Carnation Protein Shake at Walmart and was so focused on Protein content that I didn't realize it had 12g of sugar in it [emoji15][emoji15][emoji15] I immediately quit drinking them but didn't notice it until today and I have had 3 of them between yesterday morning and this evening!!! I didn't feel sick or anything just scared I may have done something terrible I shouldn't have.....PLEASE TELL ME SOMEONE ELSE HAS DONE THIS TOO!!! By the way my sleeve surgery was 4/25/17.

Not the end of the world. Just don't drink anymore, and move on.

That is not the worst thing in the world, unless you are reacting to sugar you will be fine and look at the bright side, it reminds you to read the whole label when you purchase something new

Thanks !!! I was so worried and have been super strict .....I can't believe I didn't see that when I bought them. Thank GOD I didn't go through DUMPING stage from it . My worst fear was it would mess my incision or healing up.

Dumping can happen with a sleeve, but it's much more likely to occur in gastric bypass patients. You'll be fine. People have done way worse (intentionally) than a little mistake like that. Pre-made stuff like Carnation you have to be really careful with. They can have a lot of hidden things in them. Long term I think it's better to invest in a good Blender Bottle and find a powdered Protein that you like. Usually a lot cheaper than the pre-made stuff as well.

It was my birthday May 1st first! I was sleeved March 10, 2017. I had a piece of cake yesterday with my family for the first time since my surgery. About 5 minutes later I felt like OMGGGG what have I done[emoji15][emoji26]!!! Not a good feeling at all... I learned my lesson and I will never do this again. If I could encourage sleevers...DONT DO IT it's not WORTH it!!!

      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.
