Yes, mixing them is just fine. I buy the 26 gram shots and they don't make me feel too full. If they make you that full, I would drink half now and save half for later.

Jodi where do you get those??? Can you help me out. But do the ones you have (26 grams) make you feel kinda full for a while?

I wouldn't say full...just satisfied.

I found the 26's at my local Walmart. They were $1.97 each, fruit punch flavored and taste pretty good mixed with Fruit Punch flavored Crystal Light. Can't recall the name brand but the label is orange. They were in the Health and Beauty department near the Atkins shakes and stuff. I hope it is something that they stock regularly, I bought every one that they had a week or so ago and am waiting for them to restock.

Yes, you are going to feel full......it's very hard to get in all your Protein and liquid requirements the first few weeks. Don't put pressure on yourself to do it....it will happen gradually. And remember that the Protein drinks also count as liquids.

Thank you Gayle. I am just tryign to get the most protein for myself I can't do cottage cheese and foods I don't like if that mkaes sense.

The name brand is Body Fortress...here is a picture, they had them displayed just like the picture.

I guess it couldn't hurt to contact them. Like I said I bought them all and they haven't restocked since which leaves me wondering whether this is a regularly stocked item.

P.S.

Found on the Body Fortress website a "where to buy link" here is what it came up with:

I have used these too. Boy, the price you mention at Walmart is so much cheaper than GNC... I may have to look their as well. I mix them with fruit punch crystal light to keep the calories at a minimum. I usually buy the 42 gram ones and drink 1/2 in the morning and 1/2 at night. I read someplace that anything more than 20 grams of Protein in one sitting is a waste, your body can't metabolize it. I don't know if it is true or not, but I figured I would break it up anyway...

Florida girl,

I have seen comments where that is true and some that it is not, who knows...

So, are you saying that they carry these at GNC? I need to come up with a plan B in case Walmart doesn't get anymore in. Are they a lot more expensive?

I got the same one's at GNC the thing I don't like about them is they are thick and don't put them in the frgg like I did .

Have not tried to mix it just drank it straight.

Yeah, I heard that you shouldn't refrigerate them and I wouln't be able to get them down straight, not because of the flavor but because of the consitency. They are pretty good mixed with a similar flavored Crystal Light though.

        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
