pippinje 0 Posted October 22, 2007 Has anyone seen a site that has samples for Protein drinks? I am going to be banded in Jan. and want to sample and find those that I really like before I spend a load of money on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
renewedhope 4 Posted October 23, 2007 Try Welcome to the Unjury Homepage I ordered it and, in fact, am sitting here drinking my first one as I type. I read about it on this site. I ordered a container of the unflavored and then samples of the others so I could try them first. I am drinking the unflavored right now. I put it in chicken broth. It is great. I really cannot taste it. I am really supprised at how good it is. Hope that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anonemouse 1 Posted October 23, 2007 Bariatric Eating - Protein, Vitamins, Gastric Bypass & Lap Band Info, Post-op recipes, and Help sells a protein drink/mix sampler that has a lot of different brands in it. They vary in quality and in how good they are, but it can give you a decent idea of what's available. There are two different versions available, one with a book and one without. I got the one without, since it was $20 less, and since the book was RNY-centered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pippinje 0 Posted October 23, 2007 Thank you both. Sounds like a good place to start. I will try both of those! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michee 2 Posted October 23, 2007 Check with your band doc first My doc gave me a prescription for protien shakes for my pre-op (optifast). I am certain that the doc did not want people on anything else. Since all docs seem to have there own pre op and post op plan, you wouldnt want to waste money on products that the doc does not want you to use. Just my 2 cents !! Congrats on getting the band Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
