Is this pre-made or do you mix it. I have flavored pre-made Premier Protein but I’m not sure this is what you’re talking about. Could you please be more specific? Thanks!

They come in 3 flavors: fruit Punch, Orange Mango, and Raspberry.

Not really. I'm just tricky and can fool you.

Exactly the one FluffyChix is talking about. It is pre-made and it reminds me or Vitamin Water or SobeLife water. Life saver when you are tired of those Protein Shakes. Not as much Protein but water alone has none..... I get them at Sams for about $19 a case or 12 and since I split them each case makes 24 bottles of 10g of protein each.

Dunno. Hoping to find the other flavors at Sam's today but suspect it might be an Amazon purchase.

@KayeQuiroz80 It's so much better than the Isopure Clear, but yeah, it does have a tannic/citric acid feel to it. I cut it with Water and it helps. But glad the world is made of all kinds of peeps with different tastes! :D

I tried so many Protein Drinks before surgery and haven’t even attempted then after surgery. They make me heave. Drinking organic grass fed beef Bone Broth instead. Having no issues getting all my Water in, and more. Plus thick Soups too. I count myself very lucky to have had no issues at all.
Good luck to those about to join the February surgery gang, update us on your progress if you have already been done. Have a wonderful day :)

Grass fed (or otherwise) Bone Broth does not have a good complete Protein in it. It's quite deficient in some key essential amino acids. It's high in collagen. So if that's your sole source of protein, you're potentially in for a world of hurt. Just my opinion...

You are right, forgot to add that I am blending chicken breast in my Soups too to bump up protein intake.

Would be so much easier if I were able to get past the smell of protein drinks...

      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! 😞

      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.
