protein drinks for someone 3 months post-op



Recommended Posts

Next week I will be 3 months post-op and I won't have to mix skim milk and Protein Powder in my shaker bottle anymore.

The nutritionist said I'll be able to buy pre-packaged Protein drinks, and I think that's going to be so much more convenient.

Here's my question: I don't know what the best pre-packaged Protein Drinks to buy.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Premier Protein is my favorite of the ready-made shakes. They have several flavors, but I think the chocolate is best. 160 calories, 2 net carbs, 30 grams of Protein.< /p>

You will have to try a few to see what you like and more importantly what you can tolerate.

I drank premiere pre op but they make me nauseous now.

I drink EAS advant edge or GNC lean shake if I drink any at all ( which is very rare now) surgery was Nov 9th.

I wouldn't buy a whole lot until you know if you like them

Seems like everybody has a Protein Shake nowadays. I did a double take when I saw a Gatorade chocolate Protein shake this morning. I think the best ones have the least amount of sugar.

Is also drink EAS advant edge. I have the pre-made and the powder. Both are wonderful! My nut and doctor had the advant edge (powder and ready made) on the approved list of shakes for pre-op and post. I tried a lot of them before surgery but I found this to be the best kind. I really like the flavor. :)

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
