Jeffrey Stern 53 Posted July 1, 2017 Hi northstar9148... here are some ideas I hope will help you. I don't know what brand you buy but...Buy a brand (any no name brand is fine at your local wal-mart or health food store even a big supermarket should carry Protein powders. Buy a brand that is whey (milk) or soy. I think if you buy a vanilla (there is other flavours as well) flavoured brand you will have more options for shakes. Less than 5 grams of Carbs and 20 to 30 grams of protein and NO sugar. here's one recipe strawberry banana Protein Shake 1 scoop Protein Powder 1/2 cup skim milk, almond milk or cashew milk. 1/2 cup plain low fat yogurt 4 whole strawberries (frozen if want) or blueberry, raspberry 2 inch piece of banana 1/2 teaspoon vanilla 1 package sweetener (optional) Throw into blender and blend until smooth....delicious you can also replace the berries with peaches or even use coco powder (plain no sugar powder not hot choc mix) try using flavourings and extracts orange, root beer, maple, for baking ...DO NOT use juice, honey or sugar for flavour. try this site for more recipes www.bariatriccookery.com good luck 2 Angie M and northstar9148 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ask them about the broth. I can't imagine why you couldn't have it. 1 northstar9148 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you still might wanna be on the lookout for a different shake or unflavored Protein powder. You don't want to be facing this post op. 1 northstar9148 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cat64 5 Posted July 2, 2017 You need to look for a Protein that is whey isolate. It breaks it further down than just whey and is way more gentle on the tummy.
