protein shake help.

I like Premier as it is not as sweet as others like Muscle Milk and Pure Protien. I'm not big on the powders. Used them alot when I was trying to lose weight the old fashioned way. Tried them all, hated them all.

Where did you buy the premier? Today is my first day of preop and I'm a little overwhelmed with all the choices!

I use the bullet too, but I put in about 3/4 cup of crushed ice, then skim milk and the Protein Powder on top. After blending, it's just like a milk shake. No foam.

this is how I do it too.. but will say that although there is no foam, there has definitely been air incorporated into my drink as it has about 1/3 more volume than it did before blending. It tastes yummy but if you can't tolerate any air, then this might not be the method for you.

Also, Johns Hopkins nutritionists did not recommend Muscle Milk due to lead levels - they said it was ok to drink one in a pinch but not every day.

Does the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein taste as good as the nectar ? Also is it light on the stomach ?

Personally, everything by Unjury except for the chicken Soup flavor is terrible.

I used body by vi for months prior to surgery but its soy Protein and whey is muvh better and it has less Protein per serving.. I like vanilla eas whey protein.. I bought a huge bag from Sams club snd its great with 28 Proteins per scoop. I put a little bit of pulp free orange juice for a creamsicle taste.. Now what to do with my 8 bags of body by vi shakes??? Lol

I actually like my Protein Shake. It's called Hydro Whey and I use the chocolate flavor. It's delicious and the only flavor that I can stomach so far.

An easy way to get rid of the foam is to put 2-3 drops of baby anit gas drops in your shake. It breaks up the bubbles just like it would in your stomach.

      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

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
