Returned shakes to GNC



Recommended Posts

Yesterday I tested GNC's taste guarantee on their shakes. I did not like their strawberry or mixed berry whey Protein Shakes. I returned them with the receipt and exchanged them for new flavors. These shakes are really expensive. It's great to know you can return them if you do not like the taste.

I also found a great food journal there called "DietMinder." It's perfect for keeping track of everything you eat and exercise.

That is good to hear - I have a few different flavors of Isopure that are just noxious - I'd love to exchange them for something else. Thanks for the tip!

GNC is awesome!!!! I bought alot of my preop stuff there, gettin protien powders, Multi Vitamins and ready made drinks (spent $150) and I was concerned that I might not like the taste of it. They told me that I could return the opened items after trying them as long as it was within 30 days of the receipt and I provided them with the receipt. I also got their yearly bonus card, which only cost $10 and gave me like $50 off my first order and you can use it on any purchases to get great discounts. I love GNC :rolleyes:

gonna have to check this out. i've been looking into buying those Protein bullets...the gurantee makes me feel better about trying them.

Other people may be able to take the bullets straight, but I find them too sweet for that. I pour a bit into each crystal light I drink and they add a great little punch of flavor! I've tried them all and have decided to only keep the fruit punch on hand.

I've found GNC is very good about that. I bought some bottles of Isoprotein for right after the surgery when I could only have Clear Liquids. I overestimated what I needed and a week or so after the surgery returned the excess with no questions asked.

      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.
