Help so many protein shakes to choose from?



Recommended Posts

Has anyone used isogenix,advocare after gastric sleeve surgery? I have used these products in the past and am familiar with them. I am scheduled for surgery on Feb. 21. Any info on this would be welcomed. Thx!

They both have more sugar and calories than you need. Try to keep calories under 200 per shake.

I was told to try to get whey based shakes.

Premiere Protein gives you 30g of protein for 160 calories. It's my favorite now.

The caramel flavor is extremely good in coffee...tastes like a latte:)

I don’t like the premade stuff, I use Isopure zero carb Protein Powder in chocolate, 1 scoop, 1 cup 1% milk, 2 tbsp Greek plain yogurt and two small slices of banana, blend it and it’s so delicious! The first two weeks I made 2 scoops with Water and nothing else , it was still good but not as tasty or thick as the one with milk and yogurt.

My dr. recommended Muscle Milk, Premier Protein, Isopure, Designers Whey Cytosport, etc. I've been drinking either Muscle Mile or Premier Protein. Trying to get 60 grams of protein/day

My nutritionist recommended the Premier Protein and muscle milk, both of which have sucralose that gives me a terrible reaction. I’m trying out Vega One right now, the stevia is sitting with me a lot better. I’m planning to ask my NUT next visit if this is okay. It’s not whey Protein but I haven’t found anything with that I can handle.

      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! 😞
