Finally a Protein Drink I can handle!



Recommended Posts

Nectars by Syntrax has Protein Powder that has juice flavors. So far I have tried fuzzy navel and it is good. I mixed it with Water and crystal light. Definitely a break from milk based Protein Drinks. Vitamin Shoppe, Amazon, bariatric pantry, and of corse the syntrax website all carry it, check it out.

My dietician recommended MuscleMilk Lite chocolate. Today was my first day to try it. Only allowed 4 oz (bottle is 8 oz), tasted good enough (after 2 weeks of clear liquids), and no running to the bathroom. It is like chocolate milk, but it is supposed to be formulated to be tolerated by lactose intolerant people. So far so good. They are pre-made and are 4 to a pack.

She also recommended platinum hydro-whey turbo chocolate. I haven't tried that one yet. It is a powder to be mixed with Water.

I also drink Isopure.. any flavor has 160 cals, 40gms Protein, 0 carbs. I buy it at GNC. I stock up when they reduce them to 1/2 price due to the expiration date. It usually has 2 months to expire.

I like pineapple orange banana , alpine punch and grape frost..

I also like the grape protein blitz...

Once in awhile I drink a strawberry banana protein shot( protein to go)

128 cals, 28gms protein and 5 carbs. Comes in 2.5 fl oz container. I buy them at Walgreens.

Has anyone tried the Designer whey "Protein 2 Go"? It's like a crystal light with 10g of Protein. I haven't bought it yet' date=' and was hoping for a review or two :)[/quote']

Yes! I love these things. I carry one in my purse :)

Hi All' date='

I'm fairly new to the boards and just started my pre-op diet today. I will be sleeved on 1/8/12-- whoo hoo!!! I cannot tolerate milk or milky substance things so I knew this whole Protein shake thing was going to be a challenge. So after much research I think I found something AWESOME! The "proteinblitz" by designer whey is brand new & 30g Protein, 1carb, 120 calories, & 1g sugar. When cold it tastes like grape kool-aid.

Enjoy!! Please share if you've found something you think is "non-milky" and good also.[/quote']

I personally like Syntrax nectar. I googled them as a sample packs and I got to taste every flavor and decide which ones I like and which ones I do. Mayne try thst route as well. I mix all mine with Water as I dont like the milkyness either

      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!
