Body Fortress Advanced Whey Protein



Recommended Posts

Cost has always been an issue for me and even though I like some of the other brands, this brand is only $15 at Walmart for a tub. Two scoops = 52 g Protein so add skim milk to it and you have over 60 g of protein to one shake! It's not too bad either and has less than 4 g carbs and sugar.

Yes, I also buy the same one. Taste is great! Not lumpy or anything if u use a shaker cup. My only suggestion is that u do 1 scoop per serving as our body can really only handle 40gms of protein at a time, the rest gets wasted (according to my NUT) ???? they do come in like 4-5 flavors

I haven tried it yet. I did check it out on Walmart.com. They have a value pack for 39.00 for three containers. You get to mix and match flavors. Maybe I will go to the store and try first before I buy 3. Sound like a great value if it's the brand you like.

This is what I have been using lately as well. I mix the vanilla with greek yogurt, cinnamon, almond milk and a banana and it is super yummy. I just use one scoop at a time.

The plain chocolate is my favorite, the chocolate Peanut Butter isn't as good, but it's not as bad as many other ones I've tried. I do them with a couple of ice cubes and a little milk in the magic bullet. One scoop is definitely enough!

Body fortress has at least two different whey Protein shakes... Look for the one that says isolate it has only 2 carbs as opposed to 8 in the whey protein concentrate

I like the Cookies and cream...I'm a milk fanatic so I put one scoop to like 10 oz and drink on it...I like of a little diluted with milk...

I would suggest only using one scoop since your body cannot absorb that much protein in one sitting.

True...I never can drink all that in one sitting...but if you drink it throughout the day, you'll be sure to meet your Protein intake!

Is this the stuff? If yes, then you are golden.

I really like seeing "Whey Protein Isolate" right up top. And no mention of garbage like collagen or Gelatin.

Do keep in mind that 52g is more than your body can use at a time though. Stick to the single scoop servings. 26grams is about the max you can absorb at one time.

Yeah that's it...I mix two scoops with about 12 oz of skim milk and drink about 3 oz every hour or so through the day...at least I know I'm getting my Protein everyday

      It's been 10 long years! Here is my VSG weight loss surgiversary update..

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      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
