Switching Up My Protein Shake



Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm new here but I just wanted to post about shakes. I'm 12 days post-op and still drinking my shakes but I got so bored. So today I added a tablespoon of sugar-free pistachio Jello pudding mix. It was delish!

Sounds interesting, what shake are you using?

My Nutritionist actually recommended the same thing. She said to use sugar free puddings or flavorings to change things up!

I like mine like hot cocoa. 8 oz unsweetened vanilla almond milk, heated, 2T unsweetened cocoa, 1 scoop chocolate Protein powder, and a pinch of salt.

You can add sugar free syrups like Torani or Davinci for flavor variation too.

And PB2 (defatted, peanut powder) - yum!!

I like to add a scoop of instant Decaf coffee to mine. Makes a Protein Shake taste like coffee icecream. so good!

Peanut powder? I've never heard of it?

Google "PB2". It is about $6.00 for a jar the size of regular Peanut Butter but powdered. It is like 45 calories for 2 tbsp, as I recall. I mix it with Premier chocolate Protein shakes & it tastes like a Reese's Peanut Butter cup shake...

I'm using designer whey vanilla from target.

I absolutely love those and Advantage EAS. I don't like the powder do I stocked up on ready made drinks

      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... :(
