Sick of cold and sweet



Recommended Posts

I started my pre-op diet on Monday and am already dreading drinking more cold, sweet Protein Shakes. I know this is just the beginning though, so I’m looking for some good Protein mixers that are more on the savory side. Something warm would be a bonus too! I’ve heard using broth with unflavored protein works well. Just wondering if there are any other suggestions out there. Thanks in advance!

I pour the pre-mixed shakes into my coffee. That way I can get something reasonably hot and the coffee really helps cut the gross sweet taste.

Protein mugcakes is my go to protein recipe (Google it there's tons of them)

My personal favorite is 1 scoop of Protein Powder (syntrax matrix) 1 tablespoon coconut flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder and a little skim milk to get it all mixed (until it's dissolved and a thick mix)

Microwave 30-60 seconds based on preference.

Now your protein is hot and cakey. Plus it's delicious, and it's not sweet at all

I do this every morning! I do 1/2 caramel Premier Protein, 1 cup of coffee (decaf)and it tastes great! I do this twice a day and it makes me happy :)

GENEPRO sold in the bariatric store, can be added to tea, broth, Soup. It mixes in nicely.

I’ve never tried that brand before, so I’ll have to try it out. Thank you for the suggestion!

That does sound good! I love coffee, so I’m betting I’ll love that too.

I’ve never heard of those before! I’ll definitely be googling them tonight though. Thank you for the suggestion!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
