There are several websites that you can use to order samples. That way you can decide which you like. I have read that your taste will change, that's why I like the samples. I ordered from MyBariatricPantry.com, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury.com, and Nashuanutrition.com. They all have samples packs. I also picked up Body Fortress whey powder from Walmart. Hope these suggestions help some! Good luck!

I thought whey Protein was bad

[douchewafflebear 160]

what is your nut telling you?

[douchewafflebear 160]

whey is good Protein - and easily digestible.

[Dorian 683]

I was told to look for that, and that the Body Fortress brand was a good choice. But as I see in this forum, everyone's nut tells them something different!

nectar whey Protein has tons of great flavors! It mixes well...not chunky and has 23g protein and 100 calories per scoop!

I was also told to get whey isolate Protein. They say it's the best and easiest to digest.

That is the big question going in! Everyone has different tastes, so it's tough to recommend a brand. I hate those clear Proteins, but some love them. I like chocolate, vanilla, smoothie like shakes. samples are the best route. Some tastes change, you get bored...some people buy the unflavored or vanilla and blend with extracts.

Your tastes are going to change sooo much post op mine was immediate! Flavors I liked before are now waaay to sweet! Id recommend getting the no flavor whey Protein and mixing it into Soups. Youre going to be VERY tired of sweet sweet sweet!

Which companies give samples

[Nel 189]

Bariatric Advantage sent me a sample pack for free. I just called and said I was having a gastric bypass. They have delightful Calcium chews...as far as free Protein samples, I don't know of any

Since your tastes change after surgery, it sounds like it would not do any good to try a bunch of them before surgery?

I'm on the pre op diet as well, I am having such a difficult time. you can go to Walmart and buy whey Protein for about $20. however, whey protein isn't the easiest to digest. I personally have a hard time holding down whey. I knew that coming into this diet because I used to try various Proteins when I went to the gym a lot. muscle tech is a good brand for whey but its more money than walmart's... I prefer soy protein, its so much easier to digest (especially for those who like me are lactose intolerant) my only problem with that is that at walmart I noticed a limited selection of soy proteins, all of which were high in sugar. so I had to settle for whey, unless I want to spend $20-30 online for soy.today is day 7 of my liquid diet and I noticed that today was the most difficult because I had to go out for my pre admin testing, I didn't make a Protein Shake before I went out and I tried to eat something before I left and for some reason my stomach was just not having it. i felt like i just couldn't drink anything. so stupid me didn't! ugh. by the end of my apt i was nauseous, dizzy i felt faint and weak...definitely don't skip your "meals" and drink lots of fluids. that was NOT fun at all!!!
