Recommended Posts

These ones are tasty and have a better flavor:

Protica - Product Catalog

I just ordered 2 diff. sample packs and will order more. They had an ad in Obesity help magazine I get, so I tried em. I am sold! Some how the yucky Protein part is less potent tasting.

Just wanted to share

Thanks for sharing. I've never tried the bullets before and today I purchased 2 from Walmart. They are the Body Fortress Super Whey bullets in tropical punch. Have you ever tried these or did I waste my money? :wink:

I have never heard of those ones. I will venture to Wally world and see if I can find 'em. My whole thing is, for some reason if I drink 1 bullet each day I have consistant wt. loss. ?? Don't really understand it. But I am not going to stop that habit.

I actually don't mind the New Whey 42 gm. Protein bullets. I order a case of each and they have several flavors. I put the 3.1 oz bullet in 32 oz of cold Water and its refreshing. I guess if I am fine with these the others must be even better. I will look into them. Thanks

I would suggest that you ask the dietitian at your surgeon's office what the PDCAAS score of these two products are.

PDCAAS is the accepted measure of Protein quality -- the value of the Protein to your body. The highest score, for products such as whey Protein Isolate, is 100.

In effect, you can use the PDCAAS score to translate the protein grams to the equivalent of complete protein. So for example, if the New-Whey PDCAAS score is 35, at it has 42 grams of protein, that would translate to 14 or 15 grams of complete protein.

Kind regards

Jerome

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
