There are several different brands & have different amounts of Protein. New Whey has 42g protein, and is uner 4 oz. They come in quite a few different flavors, and are a bit thicker than the protein waters, but not bad tasting. A great way to get your protein in on days when you're not very hungry. GNC carries several brands.

Thanks. My Dr. say not to drink my Protein but how is it possible to eat that much protein a day with 3 meals/day and no Snacks? I might try them. I tried the Isopure but too much to drink. Anyway agin thanks for the information.

My doctor does tell me to eat the solid food of course to allow the band to work properly but she did not tell me not to drink Protein. What she did say was to exchange the protein for the meal if I chose to drink it. I drink a Protein Shake in the mornings because I was never a Breakfast person and I take a chewable Vitamin. I also drink one or two depending on how busy I am that day of protein lemonades. They have 15 grams of protein and it is during the time of day I am drinking my liquids anyway so why not get the protein in during that time? It seems to be working for me. But as always, your surgeon has his/her own agenda for you and you should follow their plan.

It is also Syntrax. You can get it on their website. It is fabulous. They gave it to me in the hospital (under their name of course) and I wouldn't rest until I found out what kind it was.

Is it the Grab n' Go? That was the only nectar I saw that came in lemon.

Tks.

Thanks seeing we have the same surgeon and he probably told you something close to or the same as me, I will try them cause I know I am not getting even ½ the Protein. Thanks again everyone.:o

Oh. Sorry. I forgot to say go to Syntrax on your search engine and then to Supplement Warehouse. That is where I buy mine. They have the Grab and Go but I have never used that. I am assuming it is in pouches. If you scroll down from that, you will see the 2 lb tubs. They have all kinds of flavors. I mix the truffle with skim milk in the mornings and then mix the Roadside Lemonade with Water in the afternoon. It only takes six ounces so it is quick to drink and then I continue on with my Crystal Light pink lemonade.

        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
