Has anyone tried this protein?

I love the taste of this one and it says it has 60g of Protein per scoop but I haven't read of anyone trying it so just wondering

Our bari program allows this powder (available at Wal-Mart). Of course, you would want to only consume ONE scoop (30gm) of Protein at a time because that is all the body can absorb. You're just wasting your money if you drink 60gm at one time.

From what I have read and heard on the boards here from others, your body doesn't need more than 25 -30 gr of Protein at each meal. The rest is just a waste.

Ok what I've been doing is pouring a whole scoop in a separate container each day and eating the Protein throughout the day. I add half to a shake and later to oatmeal or yogurt cause I figured 60g a meal was too much.

I just wanted to make sure. Thanks for letting me know!

I agree...and one scoop of the powder has 30 Protein and 200(!) calories(2 scoops is 60 protein and 400 calories)...that's a lot of calories-I think I would only do that if I were in desperate need of protein and not really eating anything else...[=55712:ImageUploadedByBariatricPal1439697120.451492.jpg]

That is what my Dr recommends.

I found one with less calories and will save this one for next month when I'm exercising again!
