Places to get liquid protein samples



Recommended Posts

Protein powder does clump if you heat it hotter than lukewarm . I don't know of any Protein powder that you can use that way.

You can get BSN Lean Dessert at vitacost.com I think it's 14.99 BSN has all the right types of protein in it that we need

I love BSN!

I went to the Vitalady site and they have about 100 different samples but no nutrition info for any of them. How am I supposed to know which ones are low sugar and how much Protein it has? I am pre-op and want to stock up on samples but I have absolutely no idea where to start on the Vitalady site. Any help?

You should call them. They are really good about answering questions.

If you are preop, you shouldn't order too much stuff ahead of time. People say their taste changes. things they liked before surgery, they hate after surgery. That never happened to me, but I have heard of it happening to

many people.

I think the Syntrax nectar sample packets are good for right after surgery because they are thin and you need something very thin the first couple of weeks after surgery.

Thanks, I'll call them. My doctor doesn't require a liquid diet pre-op, I'm just trying to get a variety of samples to have on hand for after surgery. That way I don't comit to a big tub of something until I've tasted it.

Wow!! That is quite a list! Thanks for keeping track of all of this and sharing :) I luckily don't have to do the two-week liquid diet pre-op but I will be on liquids for at least two weeks after so I am definitely going to be trying some of these out!

Just go to the thread where it says to order samples. It's really best to get samples first of anything you are able to try.

Right now I am pretty stuck on Gaspari MyoFusion Peanut Butter and chocolate.

If you don't have a Vitamin Shoppe near you, you can order the

Pro pudding by Body Tech from Amazon.com.. The shipping is very low.

It's the best stuff. 145 calories, 4 carbs and 25 grams of protien . Delish!

tasted what? The nectar products? I have tasted all of them. They are good. The are much thinner than other Protein Drinks. I like mine thick, but these tasted good.

Just wanna recommend New whey, I get em by the boxload at GNC and mix a few with a pitcher of Crystal Light. I get tired of chocolate and vanilla it was nice to have a Protein fruit Punch :P

You can check out other flavors at NewWhey.com

I've no idea if they do samples, I personally went to GNC and just bought a couple of shots (about 4 oz each) and loved em! :D

New Whey is a collagen Protein. Collagen protein is not absorbed by our bodies. Most of the protein "shots" have some whey in them but are mostly collagen protein. Collagen is made from boiled cow and horse skins and hooves. It is not a good 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!!
