I really like the "Premier Protein" brand that costco carries. It is pre-made, has awesome Protein and low carbs/fat.

Now that I have had my first fill, I use Bariatric Advantage in both the cho and vanilla. They are super thick so they keep my full for a loooong time.

Hope this helps!

I use Bariatric Advantage Vanilla. I mix it in the blender with ice, skim milk and banana flavoring (but you could use what ever flavoring you like). It comes out like a shake and is very good. Try it....you'll like it. Good luck.:sifone:

I use EAS whey chocolate Protein (Sam's Club) powder and mix it with milk and half a banana for Breakfast. For my mid-meals, I do the readymade EAS chocolate drinks because they're lower in calories.

The best I can say about any of these shakes is that they're 'okay' and don't make me barf. Sure, I'd rather have a cheeseburger and fries, but I just drink 'em down and tell myself to suck it up...it's the Protein that's important. :sifone:

INSPIRE Proteins from bariatriceating.com. I especially like the Dutch chocolate Cake and Peanut Butter Cookie flavors. (The chocolate is AWESOME mixed with almond milk.)

powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury is the best I have had.

Also, I found mixing them yourself in a blender or magic bullet turns out better than buying premade. I also freeze cubes of milk and add to the blender to give it a more "milk shake" consistency. If you need the convenience of premade the Believe shakes are very good from baratriceating.com and the carnation instant breakfast no suger added are good, but they do have a higher calorie count per grams of Protein than other ready to drink options.

My fav Protein shakes:

1 scoop chocolate Unjury

1 cup milk

2 or 3 milk cubes

1/4 frozen bannan

1 tb Peanut Butter

~ 350 cal/33 gr protein

1 scoop vanilla unjury

1/2 cup yogurt

1/2 cup diet V8 splash (or other low cal juice)'

1/4 frozen banana

3 frozen strawberries

1/4 cup frozen mangos

calories probably around 350 and protein 30ish. I haven't really calculated this one b/c I really just throw the fruit in the blender. If you don't have a good blender you may want to let the fruit thaw a bit before blending.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
