Chike Protein from Bariatric Advantage



Recommended Posts

So I was just approved today! Yay!!! I need to order my Protein powders today because I start next week on the liquid diet and I was wondering if anyone had tried Chike protein powders. I saw them on the Celebrate website and am hesitant to order them because I haven't heard anyone say they drink them. I've tried the Celebrate ENS Plus Protein and that tastes sooooooo good but the directions say only twice a day. If anyone's had Chike protein powders let me know your thoughts!:D

I'm 11 weeks out and had some free samples from Chike! during the first few weeks after surgery. I haven't been able to find anything that tastes quite as good...I love the banana Magic and just received a tub yesterday. This was my first purchase of Chike! because the carbs are kind of high compared to other shakes, such as Unjury or Syntrax Nectar, etc. I will use it a few times each week...but it is SOOOO good!

I heard everyone raving about them. Ordered the sampler pack. I have trouble stomaching ANY of the shakes.....just make me gag. Chike was the same...unfortunately. I was not much of a thick milkshake person even before surgery.....anyway......sticking to my Protein Bars and Unjury chicken broth......:) Good luck though! Everyone is different!

I like them. I got a sample pack from them and when I was sick of the chocolate ones from costco I drank theirs. I bought a tub of the strawberry and I'm not a strawberry person, but it's really good. 2 scoops is 190 calories, 28 gms of Protein, and 11 gms of carbs. All the flavors were fine.

The carbs were a bit high but I tried my samples anyway. They seemed to be packed with flavor. The strawberry was decent but the others were too much for me. If u have a smoothie king around u try a gladiator... if not check out my blog if u want to try them.

I love the Chike. I ended getting the banana and the chocolate. (to mix) Even though I love them, I don't drink them so much because with milk they are pretty high calories. They are a Meal Replacement though, and have everything you need, unlike some of the just plane Protein Drinks. I also got them to make ice cream out of...YUM. Early on, they would be just fine.

I love chike! I mixed most of them with Water. Great taste. Mixing them with milk early on made them too hard to get down but with water it worked well.

I love the Chike too! I have found that mixing them with milk just makes them too sweet, especially as I use Lactaid which has 8 grams of sugar by itself. They seem to go down easier with Water for me.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      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.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        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.
