Where Can I buy clear protein?



Recommended Posts

I remember someone here mention they have used a "clear" Protein called Natures Best Zero. Is that the correct name? I can not find it locally. Where did you purchase yours?

Thanks for your help.

Thanks guys. That's why I LOVE this cite. Everyone is so helpful!!!!!!! I figured I could use this while I'm on Clear Liquids. Does anyone think that will be a problem? It's the last thing I need to pick up before my surgery(4/24)

Alexra: Your my new idol. Girl you look sexy. 125 lbs lost- that is outstanding. If I can get half those results I'll have my DH panting like a dog!!! LOL

Thanks again,

Roberta

I was wondering how you are doing and if you are getting all your supplies in. You'll be able to tell me by the time I have my surgery what I need. I'm going to be pretty lost I think. I'll be thinking of you on the 24th and sending prayers your way.

Hi Dody,

I actually finished picking up what I needed 3 weeks ago. The clear Protein was an after thought for when we should be having clear liquids. However, the Isopure has Bovine Serum in it , so I'll pass on that. No Steer blood for me. YUK

Thanks so much for your kind words. I'll PM you before I go in.

I use Isopure zero carb liquid (already prepared bottles) not poweder. It does not contain Bovine Serum but whey Protein from milk. It has really helped me. Some taste better than others and a few I put just a small amount of 100% juice in. They are great for me. One bottle has 40g of protein and I can take it and go all day. I buy mine at GNC. I believe it's Nature's Best brand. I also bought things ahead and found out I didn't need them. As they were unopened, GNC took them back with no problem.

SRaeM, you are a life saver. Thank you, thank you, for replying. I have bought other Proteins but none have as much protein as the Isopure. That Bovine serum had turned me off and I couldn't find anything else. I will go tomorrow and get some from GNC.:clap2: :clap2: I'm now totally prepared for my surgery 4/24

You are in my thoughts each and every day waiting for this big event...selfish cause I'm looking for you to help guide me through the first rough days. There's a method to my madness!! In all seriousness I will be thinking about you all day and sending out prayers for you. As soon as you are able please PM me and let me know how you are. I'd appreciate that. I know you will do just fine, and the cupboards are surely stocked well it seems. You are right on the ball. Good luck and lots of prayers going out to you.

Packing for this trip to Tennessee, along with the thoughts of seeing the surgeon and hoping he approves me just fine with all my paperwork, have me more nervous then when I had open-heart surgery. ;)

Hi, I just got back from GNC. I know this is really a matter of taste; but which flavors did you not care for? Thanks again for all your help.

Personally, I like Isopures grape, blue raspberry & pineapple orange bannana best. I tried one of each. The ones I didn't like I mixed with a little 100% juice or Gator Aid to down (you could also add Crystal Light) because I didn't want to waste them. I then went in and bought larger quantities of the ones I like. I don't know about all GNC's, but mine offers a card you can purchase then you get 20% the 1st week of each month. They are also selling the Isopure at buy 5 get 1 free (this is actually cheaper than a case of one kind).

      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!!
