What protein shake Ur taking? Any good ones



Recommended Posts

Body Fortress whey Protein Shakes. most grocery stores have them. Premier tasted grainy to me and muscle milk was horrible. I have tried so many different shakes so far and Body Fortress I must say is the best. 30 grams of Protein per shake and if you add fat free milk its even more.

What do u mean divide the calories? I thought at first it was all liquid diet. I'd rather drink something fortified than nothing but sugar free - calorie free Popsicles.

Your not drinking an entire muscle milk in one sitting like you would pre op so when logging it you wouldn't put an entire container. I was only drinking 2oz 3x per day of Protein drinks so I can't log an entire 8oz portion each time I drink

You can get the Syntrax Nectar drinks at Amazon.com and the shipping is free. I have compared prices and that's by far the cheapest when you factor in shipping!

Follow whatever diet your doctors give you. Mine doesn't have a rule about dividing all I'm to do post op for the liquids is get in what you can wether its Protein or Water.

It wasnt a rule I was just saying if you have a drink that is 10 oz and 300 calories and you only drink 5oz of it make sure you divide the calories in half and log 150calories instead of 300. I dont get why this turned into such a big deal.

Wasn't trying to make it a big deal I just wanted to let her know everyone's doctors diet is different.

I like the flavors from matrix and Protizyme. They have flavors like vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry cake, as well as Peanut Butter cookie. Matrix has a great Cappuccino flavor. I drink them straight or freeze them and make them into a sorbet.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
