RTD Protien (Ready to Drink)...Rants & Raves?



Recommended Posts

Hi I was banded July 18th and have been doing fairly well. I am a teacher/coach which means I now work like 13 or 14 hours a day, which is good and bad. I am so busy, that I am not sitting around eating or being tempted to snack or "graze," but I ran out of the Ready to Drink Protien shots I bought from the doctor. They are called "Fresh Start" liquid Protien Energy in Wild berry and each one contains 42 grams of protien, 0 grams of sugar and 136 calroies and is infused with all the B Vitamins. It is not the best thing I have ever tasted, but the whole thing is only 2.8 ounces. Three gulps and bye-bye protien concerns :thumbup:

I was just wondering what other kind of low cal/high protien shots are out there, let's face it, chances of me coming home, getting out the magic bullet and mixing a shake are pretty slim right now, I would say it is even a bit of a stretch to mix powder with a shaker. I mean well, but I am soooo done when I get home. (I teach Freshman and Junior English...or at least try to).

I researched some of the existing posts and went to this site Protein which is sold out of everything I want to order. So suggestions of brands, web sites, flavors...whatever. All I am looking is something quick and painless.

Thanks in advance for your responses!

Hey there.. GNC sells the Protein bullets .. I personally can't tolerate them they taste like fruit flavored feet to me.. I also work long hours but I bought a magic bullet for my desk and make my shakes at the office. I am sure being a teacher makes it tougher not having your own "space" but I just thought I would mention it. I try and only have one shake a day or every other day. I find I get hungry quickly so I prefer to eat most of my protein. Good luck!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
