Can any tell me your opinion on Equate Protein Shakes? Are they okay. The nutritional value looks acceptable.

I used Premier shakes and the comparison breakdown is as follows:

Calories, Fats, dietary Fiber and Proteins all the same. There is a slight difference in Cholesterol 25mg to 20 mg, Sodium 270mg to 210mg, Potassium not listed to 450mg, Total Carb 4g to 5G and Dietary Fiber 1g to 3g,

If the Equate is budget friendly it could be a good product for you. I used to get my premier shakes at costco for a bit of a savings. (I'm off shakes at this stage of my progress) Please note that the app Fooducate does not rate these shakes high at all so they are best to use short term.For you to get the Protein you need when you can't get it from regular food. Premier was rated a D minus.

      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?
