Yes too much sugar:

Premier Protein strawberries and cream has 30 g Protein and only 1 g sugar

EAS Advantage Carb Control Protein has 17g protein and no sugar

Just some suggestions.

I prefer Pure Protein Drinks. initially I bought the frosty chocolate with 23g Protein, 1g sugar. it is absolutely delicious! then I thought I'd be smart and bought the one with 35g protein. that was a mistake. that one has a more chalky taste and not nearly as tasty as the 23g. my nutritionist said both were fine. they have lots of favors.

I agree - Pure Protein is a really good one, and I also like Muscle Milk Light in both Choc and vanilla. They 14 oz size (too big by half) only has 12 grams sugar, and two of those are in the Fiber. It has 25 grams protein - and lots of drug stores carry it, as does Target.

Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much sugar. I am a recovering sugar carb addict before going into recovery (6 month supervised diet) I would probably be licking my lips rubbing my hands together at the sound of 26grams of sugar lmbo.....just kidding but seriously that's a lot of sugar and I think you could find one u really like without that much sugar. Premier Protein, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury & Chike r a few with a very low sugar content but r very tasty to me. Each person palate is different but u will find one that u like.

Out of the 3 I mentioned even though I love the taste of Chike the best it has a higher carb count of I believe 9 grams of carb depending on the flavor. My Bariatrician viewed the nutritional values and said it's fine but ur plan could be different. Sending skinny vibes ur way and much success on ur WLS journey.

I add extract to my shakes vanilla, coconut , sometimes chocolate coco it helps . I also try to drink it without smelling it , ugh they stink! I wish someone would make one taste like a oreo milkshake ????

I prefer the Protein Powder to the rtd ones, but my favorite rtd is ensure high Protein. Muscle milk was ok to me before surgery but I can't tolerate it now. As far as powders, I like Syntrax Nectar chocolate and double stuffed cookie.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
