I do slimfast 321 high Protein (20g)/low carb/180 cal/fat 9g. My doc recommends this one not the regular one and it taste good. I have whey protein also but like the slimfast better and I do 30g fat daily/600-800 cal/40-60 carbs if that.

Slim Fast does not have enough Protein and is high in carbs/fat. I believe they make a low-carb Slimfast that has more protein, but is still pretty high in fat. Look for something with 25+ protein and less than 5g fat and carbs.

My doctor allowed the Slimfast high protein/low carb also. I tried all the ready-made Protein Drinks on his approved list and Slimfast was the best tasting.

My doc is very particular about which shakes I use he does not want me to use slim fast or anything like that because they don't have enough protien and they have too much fat, calories and sugar. He prefers tht I use a protien called chike.

If you have access to costco Premier Ready to Drink is a very good shake: 160 cal for 30 g of Protein. I buy chocolate but the vanilla is fine.

For powder my doctor prefers whey isolate. Isolate is the best form of whey Protein. Look for it specifically because not all Whey is Isolate. I buy Dymatize gourmet vanilla and Gold Standard chocolate at Vitamin Shoppe. Join the frequent buyer program as they send you coupons.

I would freeze Milk Cubes so that when I blended the shakes they had a nice frappe consistancy (frappe is New England for milk shake made with ice cream). You can also add fat/sugar free pudding powder and or Torvani sugar free syrups (found in the coffee isle).

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
