I have less than 24 hours before my surgery and I am nervous but exicited! :nervous :bananapartyhat:

What are the best Protein drinks out there?

I will be thinking about you and wishing you a fast and painfree surgery and recovery! What a great way to start a new year! I liked the ZeroCarb Isopure and the Unjury post op. They mix well and taste pretty good. Now I just pick up a protein powder at Walmart or HEB, whatever one has the lowest suger.....I think it is Body Fortress Whey Protein I get. I am not a breakfast eater and still drink a protein drink for breakfast, but dont worry too much about the quality of it since my real protein and nutrients come from food now.

I don't know much about protein drinks yet, but I wish you all the best and I hope everything goes smoothly for you tomorrow.

Thanks for the protein ideas and support!!

I agree fully with Lianna---I used Zero Carb Isopure, and Unjury. I got the ZC Isopure at GNC,and ordered the Unjury at www.unjury.com . They have small sample packs you can buy before buying the large containers. I really liked the chocolate, but mostly used the unflavored with other flavor agents, like SF, FF pudding mixed in, or DaVinci SF syrups. Plus with the unflavored you can add it to anything as you progress with your foods, if you feel you need a protein increase.

Good Luck to you---I hope the surgery and recovery are smooth sailing!!! Come back an let us know how it went!

I hope all goes just perfect for you tommorrow, and congratulations on taking hold of your life, and making it what you want it to be. It is amazing to me to have learned that as a large person, everyone seems to just expect you not to succeed at your goals, but they think that if you are slim that you can do anything(my personal life observation) that you set out to do. Well, this is so different, you choose to change you life as a large person, and you are not accomplished at it until you are a smaller person,,,,,,,,,, it really messes people up in their perception of what we can do if we want it bad enough. Just for a test, as you lose weight, pay attention to how people approach you, listen to you, and respond to what you have to say. It is really an eye opener, or it was for me.

After you have gone through the three day WHAT HAVE I DONE phase you will start on the best journey you can ever take, the road to health!!!!

Again, good luck, take your pain meds, and welcome to bandsville!!!!!

Congrats and Good Luck!~

We will be thinking good thoughts for an easy surgery and a speedy recovery.

Stop in and tell us how it went when you feel up to it.

Hugs!

wooooooooooooohooooooooooooo!

Thanks for all the support!!

Good luck with your surgery. I take the GNC high protein shakes. They have 25 grams of protein I believe when taken with skim milk. Enjoy your time off and recovery. It goes really fast.

I'm very glad your surgery went well and I too hope we can start a support group in the Katy area since driving to the Galleria via 1-10 is a nightmare.

Best of luck to you on your upcoming surgery. I don't know much about protein drinks,but I have tried Designer Whey protein and liked it. I start on my protein shakes on the 16th. My surgery is on the 30th. Good luck to you. Gigi
