Premier Protein shakes, you can purchase at costco and Pure Protein Shakes are both 30 grams of Protein, low fat/low carb and approved for me by my NUT.

I liked using the Pure Protein powder better, it tasted less sweet to me and I would add some sugar free flavors from time to time. WIth your fat free milk, it is also over 30gm/ serving.

The Body Fortress Super Advanced whey Protein are 30 grams and only 150 calories. They are available at Walmart for like $15 for a 2 lb tube(27 servings) and come in several good flavors, I personally like the chocolate peanutbutter.

I use the Premier Protein shakes as well. I have the luxury of having an absolutely ridiculous amount of very thick hair. I followed my plan to the tee but still lost a ton of hair @2-3 months out. I am still losing it but not as much. Given the amount of hair I have I didn't stress to much about it. However my NUT told me to minimize Hair loss that at week 6 to make sure I get all my Protein plus maybe 10-15 grams extra and to never forget my Vitamins. Some people on this site suggest Biotin and it seems to get mixed reviews. My best advice would be to keep getting your protein in, unfortunately it is bound to happen but hopefully not too much!

Isopure Protein Powder from GNC has 50 grams of Protein. I ordered it from the website. colombian (coffee flavor) it's good. The store didn't carry that flavor. I like mixing it myself better because It's not so sweet. The Isopure fruit juice flavors (like gatorade) has 40grams of protein.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
