Consequences of no protein



Recommended Posts

Where can you buy the premier brand shakes at? I want to try those since there is more Protein in every shake! Also the Biotin where can you get that? I am only 2 days post op but I love reading what everyone has to say!!

I buy Premier Protein at BJ's.....12 pack for $17.99. They are my favorite. GNC has Biotin sublingual ....sometimes buy one get one free!

I was thinking of buying the Syntrax nectar at Vitamin shoppe..which flavor is your go-to flavor?

I wonder if they have sample packets to try out?

They do have single serving packs but kinda hit or miss on flavors at least at my store..you can order single serve packs on their site also so you can try before buying big container...I use vanilla bean torte in sugar free vanilla pudding it taste like cake batter lol

You should be able to find Biotin anywhere that sales supplements, I know they have them a Wal-Mart, and Rite-Aid pharmacy.

Check this out guys and gals; what do you think? I'm going to start taking this 2 week before surgery and after. 1oz if 15 grams of protein! I thought this was GREAT! Is there anything better out there?

My Nut list staes 100% whey or soy Protein isolate

Not sure about the hydroloyzed collagen?

I'm not an expert on supplements by any means.

Hopefully someone else chimes in :)

You are correct...collagen is junk Protein for us. There is an awesome thread, I think on the nutrition forum, that explains the science of why collagen protein is a waste.

Milk by-product protein is what we need post-op...whey, caseinate, etc.

I'm surprised by the "I only lose 1-2 pounds per week" comments...that's all I lose, and I'm very pleased with it. How much do you think you're supposed to be losing?!?

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
