GREAT product for Protein that I found!



Recommended Posts

So I'm trying to get 60 grams of Protein in a day which is so difficult. So I was at GNC on Friday planning to buy a ton of Isopure drinks which have 40grams and over 2.00 per bottle. But I saw this little 4oz tube that says 42grams of protein. 0 sugar. 0 fat. So I bought every single one they had. I still have to do a shake as well to make 60 but this is an awesome little product that gives me 42 of my 60 grams.

The downside is that it taste horrible. It's sour and yuck... but I only have to drink 3.4 oz of the stuff so 3 big gulps and it's done. They are available online too or maybe your local GNC has them they were only .87 cents a piece!

What's the name of the 4oz tube product? I might could handle that! :)

It's called New whey.

Here's a link:http://www.fitness-connection.com/New-Whey-42-IDS-p/new-whey.htm

Be careful who you buy from because I read on Amazon that some people say they have it in stock but do not.

We call them bullets. But your body can only absorb so much protien at a time so drink ½ at a time and the other later in the day. My Dr. made me stop using them as he wanted me eating protien and not drinking it as that is how the Lapband is designed to be used. Walmart also sells them.

I haven't had any problem with getting my protein in, maybe because I haven't had a fill yet. I also bought one of those little protein pack tubes. I have it in the fridge downstairs. i hadn't tried it yet. But I got mine from Wal-Mart. I also agree that the Isopure is great!

Thanks for the advice! I'll keep that in mind.

I can't eat anything right now so these are just going to hold me over while I'm on the puree/mush diet and then hoping to eat my protein!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
