Protein Shake ???????



Recommended Posts

I RECENTLY HAD MY SURGERY ON DECEMBER 4 2007 AND IT TRULY WAS THE BEGINNING OF MY LIFE. MY DOCTOR PUT ME ON A CLEAR liquid diet AND FOLLOWED WITH A FULL DIET FOR TWO WEEKS. OUT OF THE SIX MELAS THAT I AM SUPPOSE TO HAVE FOUR OF THOSE ARE SUPPOSE TO BE Protein Shakes. I HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE DRINKING THE Protein shakes AND HAVE REPLACED THEM WITH CARNATION INSTANT Breakfast drinks. ANY ADVICE ON WHETHER THATS A GOOD IDEA OR NOT?:help:

THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERY ONE WHO HAS REPLIED TO MY THREAD. ALL TOGETHER I GATHER THAT EVERYONE RECOMMENDS THAT I SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM THE CARNATION drinks AND EITHER CONTINUE WITH THE Protein Shakes OR TRY A DIFFERENT TYPE. THANK YOU SO MUCH FELLOW BANDERS FOR THE ADVICE.:clap2:

I din't try the carnation because I like to grab a cabn of something I don't need to mix.<p>NoNo....my Dr say sugar free carnation instant breakfast or high carb slimfast are best.</p>

My Dr. recomends the carnation instant breakfast drinks if you can't stomach the other protien shakes. They are not that low in protien and you will only need them until you start on foods.

I am going to drink Slim Fast, 10 grams Protein in each one, and its on my doctors list, and then have one Isopure chocolate shake, with I think 40 grams of Protein in it while on my liquid phase. I also bought the unflavored Protein powder I am sure towards the end I can mix that into something, maybe even the broth with the veggies.

I bought the Isopure and unflavored protein powder at GNC.

I am a big fan of powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Isolate Whey Protein drinks. specially for Lap Band/Bariatric patients, low calorie, 1 carb, high Protein.< /p>

The unflavored is great to add to yougurt and Soup. The Chocoate and vanilla make a great shake and the chicken Soup rocks.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
