I like the GNC Lean Protein pre-made shakes for easy grab-and-go. Quest has a few yummy flavors, and they are very filling. For the clear liquid, other than the Isopure, I found AboutTime ProHydrate, it's 95 calories, 0 fat, 20 Protein, 3 carbs - it tastes more like a flavored Water, and has less of a gritty, mouth-drying aftertaste I have gotten from Isopure.< /p>

@@JellyBellyNoMore - I bought five different flavors to try at my gym (24Fitness) they were $1 less than the one at GNC, but then when I found the ones I liked, I bought them at GNC in the pack of 12.

My surgeon's office says only whey Isolate Protein, so no Premier Protein for me -- although I do like it! I'm still pre-op so I've been trying things out. So far, my favorite is the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup. I like the Isolate Zero Carb also.

I don't want to sound stupid but, will I be able to handle the Protein Drinks? I can't handle dairy AT ALL. not even almond milk or soy milk. I'm not lactose intolerant, I actually have the complete reverse effect and seconds after I consume any amount it makes my stomach hurt so bad I could cry. Then I can't eat or go to the bathroom for days. I noticed that Protein drinks have a milk protein in them.

glitterpockets, you & I seem to have a similar issue. I cannot tolerate milk & milk protein and I'm lactose intolerant. I don't have a surgery date, yet but I'm sampling protein powders & drinks and so far.... I've spent a small fortune to find what I cannot tolerate. No kidding....I've already given away about $200.00 worth of protein products. Ugh.. just couldn't tolerate it...caused severe congestion & stomach issues.

Now, I think my adult son has pointed me in the right direction. He avoids all dairy and is gluten intolerant. On his recommendation... I'm trying "MRM vanilla egg white protein powder" 23g protein and 0 sugar and has no milk protein or soy. Only comes in vanilla, chocolate & unflavored...so none of the fancy flavor choices like the others. I'm using the Torani SF syrups to change up the taste and it's working great. I don't know what my surgeon & NUT will say but I had to find something I could live with and so far....this is it.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
