I found a winner! 60 grams of protein and excellent taste!



Recommended Posts

I was having a hard time gettin in my Protein because I'm one of the people that liked my previous shake before surgery and after, couldn't drink it without gagging.

I began to research and found a Protein Isolate shake "purest premium protein" it taste great and the price was just as acceptable. The flavor is vanilla Creme and mixes into Water best. If u like vanilla shakes, u will love this stuff...

A seller for me was I hated having 3 shakes a day to get 60 grams of protein. Now I make one shake with 12 oz of water and 2 scoops and I'm set for the day. I can freeze it and eat it with a spoon or because Its 98% lactose free I can even leave it sitting out and it doesn't sour. I can take all day with my 1 shake and meet my minimum goal....I love it!!

Try it....

Good idea must give it a try! My only problem is that I am having a hard time drinking my current 11 ounce shake in one day. But as time progress I will shoot for your recommendation.

I've been using that for a year now, and have found it's one of the best. It's also low carb.

Yup....Wal-Mart for about $20. I literally ready every review and the only 2 negative were because they don't like the flavor. But I love the flavor and even the smell of it!! Already finished 6oz another 6 by the end of the day and I'm goin to feel great!

Is it grainy? This sounds like a winner! Thanks for sharing. I was just approved today, but have been doing the pre-op diet for a few weeks and trying various products.

I have body fortress chocolate & it is pretty good. I wasn't able to tolerate it pre surgery. I got a tub at Walmart for about $15.

Nope, not grainy at all. Its perfectly smooth. Taste like a melting vanilla shake. Definitely try it. I remember that stage, congrats to u!! Just remember one thing on day 2 and 3, after the first month it won't be so bad, soon u will love your decision again!!! Lol

I'm not sure if that's the case but I could never drink the whole shake in one sitting. One serving is 30 grams which is one scoop in 6 oz of Water but I drink double that for the entire day.

I do have to stop myself and save some for later most times just cuz I wanna space it out...but good too in case that is the case...lol.

Ohhhh how I want the chocolate! They're sold out every time...Smh.

I wonder if that one's just cheaper or my Wal-Mart jacked up the price! Hmmm...

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
