You can get a pretty decent sample pack from Bariatric Eating - Protein, Vitamins, Gastric Bypass & Lap Band Info, Post-op recipes, and Help that has a bunch of different brands in it.

Yikes. Kinda pricey to me just to sample them. Have you tried any of them and which do you recommend?

Well, they've got two different packages. One of them has a book, the other doesn't.

I liked the nectar Fuzzy Navel, Matrix chocolate, IDS Multi-Pro Vanilla-Cinnamon (almost too sweet for me, though), and whey Gourmet Peanut Butter chocolate (best by far, IMO). You can get all those except the IDS at Netrition.com - The Internet's Premier Nutrition Superstore! (the nectar and Matrix are under the Syntrax brand, and the whey Gourmet is under the PVL brand).

I love cinnamon spice. Every morning I have my fav Protein shake:

approx 8.5 oz. vanilla micellar milk (1/2 the carton) = 20 g pro

1 scoop vanilla unjury powder = 20 g pro

1/2 scoop low-carb chai tea (from bariatriceating.com)

4-5 ice cubes

blend well

enjoy!

I also like the whey Gourmet chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Powder mixed w/ 1/2 carton of chocolate micellar milk.

I also mix a scoop of vanilla Unjury powder w/ 1 vanilla 60 cal sugar free Jello pudding, a T or so of canned pumpkin, a splenda (to taste), & some cinnamon... tastes (to me) like pumpkin pie filling. yum!

Just play around w/the flavors you enjoy! Best wishes!

Have you tried the Whey Gourmet Artic Frappe whatever? I am a Starbucks feind so this might work if it tastes good.

I've been wanting to, but I haven't wanted to buy a whole canister of it unless I've tried it, and I can't find samples of it anywhere. I have tried their milk chocolate flavor, though, and it tastes like cardboard. The orange creamsicle flavor is nearly as bad.

Well shoot me a PM if you ever do and let me know. Come January when I get my band it is going to be VERY hard to not pull through that drive through Starbucks!

Starbucks doesn't have to be bad! They've got a lot of stuff that you can get non-fat and sugar-free, although I usually just get a vanilla latte with 2% milk and regular Syrup. As long as you work it into your daily calories, you'll be fine! And the lattes actually have a decent amount of Protein, too.

I'll have to try one of those. I love fraps. Not much of a "hot" coffe drinker. I like mine cold. Do they have the fraps in non fat and sugar free?

I looked them up on their website, and they've got what they call Frapuccino Lights, which have fewer calories (no whipped cream, for one) than the regular. A grande mocha FL has 140 calories, compared to 380 for the regular mocha frap. In the summer, I also like getting their iced coffee with vanilla Syrup and a little cream or milk in it. It's not bad on calories.

You can also get their lattes iced, too, if you don't like hot ones.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
