    I just joined and I feel you. The only thing forcing me to comment and butt in is the fact that I know I need a support system & right now this community is all I have [emoji51]

    So I joined this Bariatric Pals Community thinking that it would be awesome to talk and fellow people that are going through the same thing as me. But for some reason I find it hard to join in on the conversations. I feel like I’m butting in on other peoples conversations. Like who’s this newbie trying to talk to us? Does anyone else feel that way? Or is it just me? Because Im definitely not that way in person. I’m always talking to everyone around me no matter who it is. But for some reason I feel differently on this.

    Do you mean the strawberry Premier Protein RTD, or a powder? I've had good luck finding the RTD at Walmart (along with chocolate, vanilla, and sometimes caramel and banana).

    I'm currently doing the presurgery liquid diet.
    I drink Bariatric Advantage chocolate flavored Meal Replacement, Premier Protein chocolate rtd, muscle milk strawberry rtd, and Unjury chicken, The unjury chicken is foamy, but it has been a life saver during my presurgery diet. My nutritionist gave me strawberry premier Protein which was delicious, but I haven't been able to find it for sale anywhere.

    I ve tried premier after my surgry & it made me sick. I tried the Isopure but it foams up too much & it cakes up in Hot Drinks like coffee! Im now using Garden of Life raw Meal Replacement, vanilla. It works great with Water, almond milk & hot coffee! Im 8 months post op & sometimes I dont feel like eating Breakfast so put my Protein with a teaspoon of coconut oil in my coffee! Very filling for me! By the way I can now drink premier again!

    I do the total lean Protein 25 drinks from GNC. Premier has to much dairy and makes me sick.

    For me, it's a combination of that, the lower sweetness level, and the fact that it was specifically recommended by my program.

    Premiere Protein here.... like the vanilla, caramel , chocolate and Cookies and cream. They are sweet though- but I like that. I like that they are ready made and easy 30 g of protein.
