Does anyone use Body Fortress Super Advanced whey Protein Powder? I got it at Walmart. I really like the vanilla in skim milk. Hoping it's just as good after surgery :)

I used it before surgery but can't stand anything milky tasting since surgery. I now use Syntrax nectar strawberry kiwi and unjury chicken Soup

I've been using Gold Standard by Optimum Nutrition. They offer it at GNC although it is a little cheaper through Amazon. I get 5lb containers and its about $53 for 74 servings. I've had chocolate and strawberry so far but they have many many options. Each scoop is 24 grams of pure whey Protein and I mix mine with 12 ounces (normally one scoop per 8 oz, I just like it with 12) of skim milk.

I was told to do instant Breakfast no sugar added after surgery. I add Isopure to it.

Does anyone have a problem with dumping from the sugar in Protein drinks?

Yes I do...I can't keep anything inside me at all. Surgery date was March 5, and so far have not found one Protein Drink that agrees me. Can't eat or drink anything at all. Lost almost 60lbs so far but that is from not eating or drinking. Needless to say I'm totally still in the buyers remorse stage. I don't know what to do to feel better.

I found no carb Isopure works best for people with dumping issues. I just add sf toroni flavors to the vanilla to change it up.

I just bought Isopure zero alpine punch flavor. I must say it is pretty good. Not a fan of milky drinks. This reminds me of crystal light. Not too sweet.

Have you had surgery yet?

Why do we need these Protein drinks?

Protein is a major building block to repair your body and to survival. After surgery you are unable to eat large amounts of foods and shakes come in handy to help us get our protein. Everyone tries so many different ones because our bodies change after surgery. Like I can no longer drink any milk base items or anything with sugar alcohols in them or I dump. I also take a large amount of Vitamins as we that have had rny must..

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
