yes its totally fine! thats what i use also i really like the vanila flavor! i was told that you just don't want over 10gms of carbs in each serving which alot of em dont.

Can the human body absorb that much Protein at one time? I heard that the body can only absorb so much protein at a time like 20g or so. I was thinking about getting some whey protein, but I was curious about this.

I love the Whey Protein body fortress muscle whey protein. You dont have to do the whole 50 grams at once. I know mine is 26 grams of protein for 1 scoop and 130cal and you can add Water or milk. Dr says its good as long as carbs and sugars are low

Funny you say that! My husband just brought me another "sample" It is a 2oz shot, whey Protein by body fortress that has 26g of Protein, 110, 0 fat, 1carb and 0 sugars.. It is fruit punch flavored.

BUT they are $2.00 each.. so I was just telling him I'd have to use the big jug.

Does Whey protein bulk you up?

I have tried the chocolate which i love , the vanilla is OK if you want to add stuff to it like fruit and thing like that, i have it plain. They have strawberry that I haven't tried. I did try the punch shots those I'm not crazy about because I'm not a Water drinker and I'm drinking crystal lite all day so I needed to brake it up, and they are expensive. The large container of powder is cheap and easy. If you go out you can put a scoop in a baggie and always ask for water or carry bottled water or just get some skim milk. I have even heated up water or milk and drank it like hot coco very tasty. Desperate times bring desperate measures. LOL

I am one of the lucky ones I guess, I'm a month post op and i am never hungry. I have been on solids and can only eat 4 oz and I'm over full so I have been doing the Protein Drink for Breakfast. When I was 2 weeks post op I thought i was hungry around 4 but we dont eat dinner till 6 so I would have half of 1 scoop and 2 oz of milk and that filled me till dinner sometimes to full to fit dinner. So for me i find these do bulk you up.

I use it mixed into yogurt and oatmeal, plus I make post work out shakes with it:

1 Cup Non-Fat Milk

1 Scoop whey

4-5 strawberry

4-5 Ice cubes

I used the same stuff....One serving of that stuff, mixed with 1% milk, gives you 60 gram of Protein in one serving...Thats almost all the protein you need for the day. My doc says to shoot for 60-70 a day. so I always drink a Protein Shake for breakfast and get my protein out of the way; then I just eat/drink whatever I want the rest of the day and I don't really have to worry about the protein... Its good stuff... :laugh:
