My surgery was June 4th and I have been a little over a week Post-Op.

At first I really enjoyed the taste of my Protein shake. However, two days in and now I cant even look at it. It is so gross to me now!!

I also hate my Multivitamins. I am taking Bariatric fusion in "Wild Cherry." But the tablets are enormous and they are not necessarily tasty hehe.

I would love it if you guys would share your supplements with me so I can have a wider range of choice! That would be awesomeee!!!

Happy loosing!!!

There are several Protein shakes that I use and are delicious. My favorite is Premier Protein ready made shakes. You can buy them at Sam's or costco. chocolate is my favorite flavor is it is not overly sweet. You get 30 grams of protein and only 1 gram of sugar. These are very tolerable shakes and were recommended by my Bariatric team when I struggled with some of the others.

Recently I also had the need to try another type of shake called Syntrax nectars. I chose the grab and go packets to try and they can be mixed with Water or milk. The fuzzy naval, Caribbean cooler and vanilla bean torte are all delicious. I choose to mix the vanilla bean torte with milk. You do have to mix these well, wait a few moments and shake them one more time. I do not get any grit nor do I taste that nasty protein taste. They are delicious and have 23 grams of protein in each shake.

In terms of Vitamins I initially used Centrum chewables. They were just fine. Now I can swallow a small daily multi Vitamin with Iron with no problem.

My saving grace:

Protein Popsicles/icecubes

1 box sugar free Jello mix, 1 packet kool-aid, 1/2 sugar free sweetener (your choice) with 1 cup boiling Water --mix and cool to room temperature

1 cup cold water mixed with 1 scoop fruit flavored protein (ie strawberry or fuzzy navel)

Combine both and freeze in ice cubes or Popsicle

I use the ice cubes in my food processor to make a protein slush. 6-8 cubes, 8 oz water, 1 scoop fruit flavored protein.

Both really good on a hot day

I have gone to drinking Fairlife milk, it has 13 grams of protein and mix it with Isopure strawberry shake, 0 carbs 25 grams protein, 2 cups and I gave got my protein for the day. Takes me an hour to drink 8 oz, but it worth it.

I add a spoon of sugar free pudding to my shakes My fav is banana cream. This makes a big difference in taste especially if you are using non flavored protein. Sugar free jello is a good add. I am 5 days out of a total revision. This time around has been so much better!

I'm 6 days out of surgery and I can't stand these shakes, no store around I go to has chocolate shakes, I've been stuck with French vanilla and terrible breakfast carnation vanilla/cafe

6 months out and 81 pounds down

There are many supplements you may use. But I know one of them as my grandmother was suggested by our doctor after her surgery. Our doctor suggested us this site where the supplements are easily available. And this supplement helped her to stay energetic and healthy.
