Protein Supplement Suggestions



Recommended Posts

I use unjury unflavored. You can order some individual pouches on-line. As long as your not heating it up past a certin degree It dosent change anytihng. I add it to pudding So I get desert with a Protein kick to it. I also add it to cottage cheese and other food that is creamy.

I was having a really hard time getting enough Protein in my system. AND my doctor told me NO MORE Protein shakes. So I have been trying high protein meals...Boiled egg for Breakfast...Takes a while but I manage to get it down. and super high protein tuna salad...I use Greek yougart instead of mayo for less fat and more protein. Seems to be working And I also make hummus for an added snack/lunch.

I found the Jillian Michaels (Biggest Loser) Protein Powder to be pretty good in the vanilla flavor, not chocolate. I mixed it with warm a little warm Water at first to dissolve it, then added more cool water, ice cubes and 2 oz of vanilla rice or almond milk and shook it hard. It was pretty good and not too thick. It filled me for a couple to 3 hours when I made 16 oz and sipped it over an hour or so in the morning on my drive to work.

I just bought Jillian's brand! I'm glad you said it's ok. I haven't tried it yet. I usually use Slimfast or Carnation Instant Breakfast, but I just want another option for liquids. I'm looking forward to trying Jillian's today @ lunch!

Both chocolate and vanilla flavors of Body Fortress (from Walmart) are awesome. I order sugar free flavored syrups from DiVinci.com. There is every flavor you can imagine so you can have anything from chocolate covered cherry to vanilla chai to peppermint patty. the sky is the limit with the sugar free syrups. I have a little Hamilton Beach blender. I fill it with 4 or 5 ice cubes, 8 oz of skim milk, a scoop of Protein powder and about 2 tbs. of Syrup. you can even add multiple syrups like pineapple and coconut with the vanilla and you have a pina colada. YUMMM. I have to be honest, I actually enjoy having them. They are really good.

I like the unjury strawberry Sorbet. It is good when mixed in Lemonade. I also tend to revert back to to Carnation Instant Breakfast Mixes (Sugar Free of course) :confused: - but they are hard to find. The premixed one are nasty.

I buy the sf cib powdered at cub foods or rainbow not sure where you live but I know here in MN you can get them in both veriaty pack and all chocolate 8 per pack for like $4.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
