mslittle 1 Posted September 1, 2008 I was banded Aug 5, 2008 by Dr. Adam Smith. I have done very well with the procedure post op and also with my first fill. I have to admit, being the coward that I am, I was a little worried about the fill. It took about 30 seconds and I was done. The only thing that concerns me is getting enough Protein and liking it. I have a powdered protein supplement that has 42 gms. of protein and I can get it down with ff milk, ice, and tang but I would welcome any ideas of what to mix to make it more tasty. I know I will get tired of drinking it on a daily basis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zenfy 0 Posted September 1, 2008 I use chocolate amplify from GNC and I love to mix mine with my sf chocolate pudding. It tastes like cake batter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew6 0 Posted September 2, 2008 I would recommend taking Isopure. It gives you 50 gms of Protein per serving and unlike some of the others has no carbs. Some of the other protein mixes have hidden sugars and can make you retian Water thus not really showing weight loss. Also if you would like to keep from having loose skin I would recommend an Amino acid. I take 4 tbl spoons a day which gives me a nother 30 gms of protein and will help tighten and elasticize the skin. They have cherry flavored amino acids and you can mix with water so it doesn't taste as bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
