1st Protein Shake Down



Recommended Posts

Well I finally got the first Protein Shake down. It was disgusting to say the least.... But It gave me TONSSS of Energy! So that was an upside. I also took 2 sips of that nasty Protein Shot!

Anyone know of an alternative to get the protein that is needed in??

Try around with different things to add to the shake, I found some sugar free/fatfree coffee flavoring that I have been adding to mine, it's super tasty,, or try different Protein powders.< /p>

Protein "shots" or "bullets" usually contain collagen protein as the most predominant ingredient. Collagen is an incomplete protein meaning that it lacks one or more of the nine essential amino acids the body needs. Collagen also has a PDCAAS score of 0.08 which means that it is virtually indigestible. And to top it all off, it tastes terrible. whey, soy and milk protein supplements - ready-to-drink or powder - are all excellent sources of protein and there are many options on the market. Don't stop trying until you find one that you can tolerate. Getting ALL of your doctor recommended protein in every day is crucially important for a whole list of reasons. You're gonna love the new you!

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
