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!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
