Cellucor COR-performance protein



Recommended Posts

Has anyone used these? I bought this brand for my pre op diet in the flavors cinnamon swirl and mint chocolate chip, my requirements for pre op had to be a whey Protein that had less than 5 carbohydrates which these both fall under those category but does anyone have personally experience with this brand, ive seen it rated 9 out of 10 everywhere but I'm curious how it taste cause i honestly hate Protein Shakes i don't like the grittiness which i know is bound to be in every Protein Powder because its the actual powder, but I'm not looking forward to this pre op diet because of that haha

I like the premier shakes. They dont taste gritty to me, but thats my opinion. Anything that ive used that u have to add the powder to, it either clumps or is gritty. But the ready made shakes, i like. Good luck

Have you tried the premier Protein shakes? The chocolate and banana don't taste bad at all. The banana is a little bit sweet, but you could always add some almond milk to Water it down if it's too sweet for you. Plus, they have 30g of Protein each. So you would need only 3 to get in your protein goal after surgery. I haven't had surgery yet and think they are good, hope my taste for these doesn't change after surgery as some people's tastes have changes. Many people say don't stock up on anything specific for v this reason.

@@ppressey24 @@Suaniya i have tried premier protein! the problem is though my doctor only wants me to have 2 "milk" servings a day and that is skim milk no other milk by the way and besides having 4 Protein shakes a day which i need i am allowed 2 light yogurts and i know Premier Protein says made with milk so thats why i bought my own to be able to mix with Water it says after mixing 2 of your Protein Shakes with milk you are not allowed any more milk for the rest of the day so i do need to clarify on that but that is why like i said before i went and bought ones that you personally mix so i can mix with water...

this is my exact diet plan

am-protien drink and 1 cup of skim milk or light yogurt

mid morning- Fiber supplement

noon- Protein Drink, Fiber supplement

afternoon-1 cup raw vegtables

dinner-protein drink and fiber supplement

evening-protein drink and 1 cup of skim milk or light yogurt

and i need to get 100 ounces a day in which include the diet plan and then am allowed Water, crystal lights, Decaf coffee and tea, broth, sugar free Jello and popsicles so thats why I'm not doing Premier Protein shakes, this is for my pre op to shrink my liver and i know every doctor has their own kinda way but i deff wanna follow what my doctor says so if he says only 2 servings of milk thats what i gotta do! I'm not worried about Protein after i know i can use premier protein and any protein probably by then but this is for the pre op so even the protein i can use is strick

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      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
