  • Thanks JustJen!

  • The only reason I do the protein shakes is because I really don't think I can actually physically eat enough food in one day to meet my suggested protein needs.

I use Pure Protein chocolate powder but, shake it in a Blender Bottle it has a wire Shaker Ball so I don't get lumps or clumps when I make it.

The powder has 25 grams of protein when mixed with Water. I use Hoods Simply Smart skim milk and it adds 10 more grams of protein for 35 in about 8 ounces of Fluid. Yummy when it's nice and cold :)

Hey Jenn, do the yummy ones you mention have lactose? I have a few brands (nectar, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury, etc.) that were good pre op, but I can't get them down post op. maybe premixed yummy is the way to go! ????

I looked up the Atkins shakes and they do contain milk. The coffee ones also contain real coffee, so that means they have caffeine, which I can't have. I guess yummy Atkins shakes are out for me. :(

Jay robb whey Protein shakes are awesome! No after taste and not gritty at all. The vanilla if u add 1 tsp of vanilla extract tastes just like ice cream. Especially if u out it in the freezer for 30 min!

I guess I'm the only one who is post op, who gagged on Protein shakes and never drank them again! Uh oh, guess I'm headed for trouble. Please tell me I'm not the only one who didn't do Protein drinks :/

I don't usually do Protein shakes, but that is cuz my Dr said not to. He wants me to get my protein from foods only. But occasionally I will have one.
