I get the Isopure, dutch chocolate is the best tasting i think 1 serving (2 scoops) is 50 g of protien ( i use 1 scoop 25 g) so it makes it super easy to get in all the protien. All the flavors are Zero carb except the dutch chocolate wich is 1.5 carbs per scoop.

We use the AMP Amplified Wheybolic in the black and red tubes from GNC! We have had chocolate, vanilla, banana Cream and Cookies and Cream and we like them all! As for "mixing it" there is a list in the recipes section that is a HUGE list of different ways and there are some SUPER yummy ones in there!!

My fav. right now is chocolate Peanut Butter! I use two scoops of Chocolate powder, 1 C Milk, 2T PB and about 6 ice cubes and mix it in the blender!!

I am going this weekend to get my Protein shake mix from GNC and wanted input on what others liked from GNC and if you got creative with your shakes.

GNC is the place to go, keep the receipt!! I started 3 months ahead of time determined to find something I'd like....to no avail. I tried the whey, egg white powder, flavored and unflavored. Keep in mind, unflavored just means it is NOT strawberry, chocolate or vanilla....it still has a taste to it!!! Ugh!!! I finally gave up and after getting a "goodie bag" from Forest Park Medical Center when I was discharged after surgery...I discovered the Protein bullet. 42 grams of protein packed into 3.5 oz. Not the tastiest thing in the world, but it isn't horrible either. I liked the blue raspberry the best and didn't mix it with anything. A few sips in the morning, a couple at noon and the rest later in the day and I was through. None of the trying to get down a big Protein Shake for two hours!!! The protein bullet is also from GNC and comes in all different flavors, the grape is over powering, the blue raspberry was the best in my opinion. I did it for two months, one a day and between it and food, i was getting 65 - 80 grams of protein per day. Towards the end of the two months when I was eating more, I didn't even have to drink an entire bullet! Good luck!!

Syntha 6 is the BEST from GNC. Its in the big red bottle. Its AWESOME. I've loved every flavor I tried but chocolate Peanut Butter is my favorite.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
