Hi, i am 12 days post surgery and in my phase 3. I need more proteins but can't eat that powder stuff anymore.

Can anyone suggest anything? I live in Canada sometimes we don't have same brands as the US.

Did you try mixing the unflavored into your food so it can mask the taste?

I have been searching for several things kinda high in protein to get away from the powder, check out this site

Thanks for this, i will try.

Isopure has 40g of protein and tastes pretty good, at times a bit sweet. I also got a flavored water additive from bariatric choice. Only 15g of protein but I think they taste better and are a bit cheaper. They also have little shots, like 5 hour energy, think they were 18g.

This one is my favorite. It is a liquid that you pour in water.

Hopefully they still offer free shipping for you!

At vitamin shoppe and GNC they sell clear isopure with 40 grams of protein I suggest you water it down or use lots of ice!!! I also can drink muscle milk (lactose free) they have a 20 gram liquid shake with 100 calories. I wasn't able to use the powders or drink milk products so the isopure is the best for me

Atkins has a pretty good protein water/drink that I was able to tolerate much better than then shakes during the early stages.

Amazon ships to Canada, yes? They have a fair number of protein & bariatric things

I eat vanilla greek yogurt and add 1 tbs of peanut butter protein powder for a total of 15 grams of protein. It's delicious.

My surgery was on sept 6th. I usually have 1 pre mixed protein shake in the am, Greek yogurt and cottage cheese during the day. Just those 3 almost get me to my goal. Chicken salad, a protein dense soup or a latte usually rounds out my day. I found that when I tried eating foods that were less protein dense or tried to drop the shake, I struggled to get to goal. I'm eating between 700- 800 cal a day.

Buy protein bars from Costco

Ok I finally found it. Thank you.

I was drinking premier protein shakes pre and post surgery and it constipates me very bad and causes a lot of trouble. Can anyone shed light on their protein choices and how they effect their BM’s

That’s protein supplements in general plus lack of fiber and healing and residual from pain meds and anesthesia.

Add some soluble fiber like benefiber and some usoluble like Metamucil.

I drink Premier occasionally but I LOVE Bipro. I can't find it in the stores I have to order it from the company and get it shipped to me, but it doesn't bother me at all, especially when it's on ice. No constipation with it. Premier to me has too much of a milk taste/base to me.
