I read the entire thread and didn't get any hint of an attack on anyone. Sometimes opinions can come across in an unintended way but I don't see it on this thread personally.

That said, I LIVE on Protein shakes!! Could not get through without at least one Muscle Milk per day. Funny how each doctor is different from another.

I am completely satisfied with one for Breakfast, I eat my Protein the rest of the day. It works for me and that's all I can hope for!

I went for my first fill on Tueday, and I talked with the nutritionist about my worries. I told her that I maybe get in 45g of Protein a day. She asked me my height, and then she told not to worry to much about it. She said they recommend 50-60g a day. They do not like you to eat snackes so I will have to get my Protein during my three meals. The only problem is I love eating Cereal for Breakfast (Special K original), and it doesn't have much protein in it. Maybe 15g total with milk.

What protein breakfast bars are good? I like the Special K bars, but I don't know of any other good ones.

Speaking of Protein - anybody using unflavored Isopure? Apparently you can mix this into hot foods w/o it caking, gelling etc. Wanted an opinion before I bought any.

I use GNC 100% whey Protein unflavored. I mix it in my oatmeal and Protein Shakes.< /p>

I have the unflavored Isopure, as well as the chocolate and vanilla flavors. From what I have experienced so far, I can mix the Isopure into anything, hot or cold.

Special K Protein cereal is great, as are "OH Yeah" Protein Bars.

I have to be careful with the potein bars because they're so good :unsure:! I buy them online.

      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! 😞
