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:

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
