Wow Finally A Protein Drink I Like!



Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

I just had to share. I have tried every Protein drink on the market. I am just shy of 2 years out. I ordered Real Meals powder and I like it. I got the vanilla and mixed it with Light vanilla soy milk. In 8oz I am getting 39 grams of Protein. Not bad...So excited to be getting in what my body needs. Just had to share. If you tried everything this one is good. No I dont work for them and paid full price! lol

i have been very fortunate to like Premier shakes at costco. i don't think I would be able to get my Protein requirements in otherwise. You have done very well with your weight loss! Congrats! I'm also 5'6" and I can't get below 146 on the good days. Now I find myself reverting back to old eating patterns and eating when I'm not hungry. I've got to get a grip. how do you handle these times? :)

Thank you!

I have a trick while I am at work. Protein bars are really heavy and filling for me. I take them and cut them up in bit sized pieces. When I feel I need to munch I grab a piece. I have been doing this for over a year. I hope this helps. It really does keep me full and helps with getting the Protein in also :o)

That's a good idea! I work midnights and its hard for me to work 12 hrs and not eat anything cuz it's so late. But that wud probably help me more than hurt me so I think I'll try that! Thanks!

Now that does sound like a great idea. I work nights on the weekends and have a hard time getting in protein as well as food (dinner is a challenge). If you have to "snack" on something, might as well make it worth it. BTW, why are so many Protein Bars chocolate? Is most of the protein in chocolate? :huh:

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
