Hello, my surgery is in 3 weeks and I'm trying to get a feel for the best tasting Protein Shakes. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks!!

I drink Premier Protein RTD and that's it for shakes. I also drink Isopure Zero Carb, which is like a fruity drink with 40g of Protein.< /p>

I am a big fan of unjury chocolate splendor and Unjury strawberry sorbet.

Muscle milk is pretty good.

Unjury chocolate Splendor is delicious. Pure Protein ready to drink is good. However I won't use any of these because of sucralose/Splenda in them. I also mixed Isopure with Crystal Light. I have so many sample packs of Unjury. Oh well.

The only thing I can really tolerate is Premier Protein...and I have to chug it in the morning to get it down. LOL. I liked Muscle Milk before surgery, but after surgery it started giving me a real bad case of "The Hershies"...if you get my drift. :-)

Don't trust your farts for a few weeks. You're welcome. :-)

I don't like any of the RTD (I did okay with Premier Protein at the beginning but now they gag me). My powders of choice: Syntrax Matrix orange cream, banana cream, strawberries & cream, milk chocolate, mint cookie. Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard vanilla ice cream & caramel toffee fudge, Unjury chocolate splendor, Chike Iced coffee & Chike Banana Magic (I generally only use a half serving of Chike because otherwise the carbs are too high).

Immediately after surgery I did a lot of Syntrax Nectar (fuzzy navel, Roadside Lemonade, lemon tea, twisted cherry) and Unjury chicken Soup.< /p>

You won't have much capacity following surgery so find a shake/mix with a high level of Protein which will give you more bang fir the buck. Isopure no carb mix with 12 ounces of milk gives you 68 grams if protein. That one shake will satisfy your daily requirement.

Muscle milk light (20g) and pro (40g) are both good. I get light at Costcos.

How about a no flavor Protein mix, is there one that tastes better than another?

How about using some davinci sugar free Syrup to flavor them. I use Cherry flavored in my chocolate Unjury shake and it's so good. Tastes like a chocolate covered Cherry but they have lots of flavors!

I was thinking the no flavor powder Protein to add to meals.

I used Unjury plain. They aren't really no flavor so get small quantities to experiment.

I use Unjury also--Strawberry Sobet with Crystal Light Lemonade and Vanilla with Crystal Light Orange. One of each each day with an 8-oz. glass of milk gets me to my Protein supplement requirements.

      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...

      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
