Hello my name is Anzata. I was sleeved 8/18/14 and I am having issues with Protein I can't stand them now they I'm sleeved. A friend told me about GENEPRO so I ordered it the other day has anybody else had this issue or has anybody tried this protein?

I have never heard of GENEPRO. I looked it up and all I found is a geneololgy sight. I really like powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury and nectaur protiens. I am a chocolate lover but can't seem to be able to like the chocolate Protein powders that need to be mixed. So with the Unjury I use the strawberry and unflavored one. With the Nectaur brand I really like a whole slew of their fruit flavored Proteins. I mix my Proteins with zero vitiman Water using just half the bottle. (10 oz.) They need to be mixed at room temperature and then if they can sit for 5 min. you can either put ice in the bottle or refridegerate it. This helps to avoid clumping. Use within 48 hours of mixing. I also have a premeir Protein for my Breakfast most days. These are already to go (called RTD) and I like the choclate with this one so haven't tried their vanilla. They might have a strawberry out too. (?)

Hope this helps.

I am unfamiliar with that brand of Protein powder.

I use vanilla flavour Body on the go shaping Protein (ready to drink bottles) when I choose a shake. I put 2 tblsp chia seeds in, shake and wait 10 minutes and I call it my bubble tea.

I prefer to use Quest bars to achieve my protein usually though. Once you feel you could stomach Protein Bars I encourage you to try them if you have not before.

Per bar:

  • 20g high quality protein
  • 17 g fibre
  • Between 160 and 200 calories

I currently eat 1 – 2 per day most days (max. 2 per day approved by my dietician). Early out from surgery I could eat half a bar at a time.

They come in many wonderful flavours such as:

If you are cautious with your sweeteners the following are sweetened with Stevia and Erythritol (commonly considered to be 2 of the safe sugar alternatives):

  • cinnamon roll
  • chocolate peanut butter
  • coconut cashew
  • banana nut muffin (gluten free)
  • lemon cream pie
  • strawberry cheesecake

The most economical way I know of to buy them is from their official site however I am in Australia.

I use GENEPRO with the approval of my NUT. IT IS AWESOME! Instead of a huge scoop it is just a tablespoon and has 30 grams of Protein and 98 calories and I believe it's 3 carbs. You can mix it in hot or cold. I use a scoop of vanilla Unjury, a cup of skim milk, a little sugar free pudding powder I love the banana cream and add a tablespoon of Genepro and some ice cubes mis it in a blender and I get 59 grams of protein in one shake. I drink one every morning then I only have to get a little more protein to meet my goal and it's simple!

You can buy it from Amazon where if you have a Prime membership you save almost 10 on the shipping over buying it direct from their website.

I drink the Premier Protein shakes that you can get at Sam's, costco or Walgreens. They have 30 grams of Protein per shake and I think it is 120 calories. I just getting sick of drinking them. I ordered some beneprotein online and should be here anyway to add to Soups and stuff. I am on my 2nd week getting ready to start my 3rd ! Can't wait for soft foods ❤️

I just found a liquid 3 oz vial of Protein at Walmart! Just looking thru their health isle in the pharmacy section and there it was. Different flavored, watermelon, blue raspberry... 43 grams per 3 oz! 2 vials and you're done for the day. Weird though because the blue raspberry was .98 cents and the others were 2.38$. Only problem, I HATE artificial sweeteners. I tastes like diet coolaid. But I'm gonna try to get it down some sort of way. I'll take a pic and post it in a few...

      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.

      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! 😞
