Any suggestions on Protein Drinks? I'm 4 weeks out and I can't stand my Protein drinks any longer. I hardly eat a thing so I know I'm not getting in the protein I need. I tried the chocolate Lean Body, some horrible Walgreens brand shake, and fruit punch Isopoure. Is there a drink you like? Did anyone else have trouble getting in their protein?

Isopure drinks are really good. You can get bottles at GNC but they are over $5/each. Or buy the powder which is much cheaper. They have all kinds of flavors. I like the mango/peach.

Do you have a Sam's Club or costco nearby? Premier Protein are by far the most popular amongst sleevers here. Not for everybody, but I know dozens of us who have settled on Premier. If you don't believe me, do a site search on Premier Protein. chocolate or vanilla. I sound like a salesperson ... but I'm not!

I agree with Pdx Man, Premier Protein shakes at costco and Amazon.com. are the best I have tried so far, and I tried a lot of powder ones my first two weeks. I like to put in freezer until just a little icy:)

Hi -- The selection of protien shakes where I am from are very limited.

So, I've come up with a formula that I can live with--maybe you would like to try this?

I mix non-flavor whey protien (6 scoops; up to 24gm of protein) with a cup of Non-Fat milk--then I drop in a tbsp of Hershey's unsweetened chocolate powder (the one used for baking) and blend this with some ice. It doesn't taste great, but it doesn't taste bad either; like watered-down chocolate milk with 32gm protien and contains 210 cal.

It doesn't break the bank, physically and financially for me. Plus, the non-flavor allows me to use it in some of my food dishes.

Hope this helps!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
