Protein Bullets 42 grams protein in 3 fl oz



Recommended Posts

Yesterday was my education session with my Drs nurse right before my surgery on the 23rd. One of the things she highly recommended was a product thet gives 42 grams of Protein in just 3 ounces. She stated that females need at least 80 grams of protein a day and this made it an easy way to get over half. Theres a website I ordered from earlier today liquid Protein Information and Product Listings - Fitness First USA I purchased 48 vials for $56.00 which seems expensive but if your doing the shakes for protein then you know its about the same only this has a lot more protein. She highly recommended them for right after surgery and those days when we know we won't be eating right and protein amoints will fall short. Personally I felt a little vain but I want to loose lots of weight not lots of hair so I ordered some for me. Theres a lot of other products as well that look good you might want to consider. They do have a referral and bonus program, please if you decide to order I would appreciate it if you used my name (Saundra Rotherham) and you can do the same. I also have a promotional code which brings the shipping down to only $1.00, as far as any one knows it doesn't have an expiration date and it did work for me its OCONUS1. She did say that right after surgery a lot of people split it in half. She also said while she likes the taste as it is some people put in it Water, sugarfree koolaids and such to help with their liquid intake. Lots of luck everyone I hope some of you find this helpful:thumbup: I should add they throw in two vials free and if 24 is more than you want to start with they have a 12 pack in each flavor as well. I'm gonna start with grape in case I want to add to my grape crystal light.

I drink bullets every morning before my commute to work. I like the the flavors, they fit in my purse, and their easy to slam down when I am rushed. They fill me up!

The New Whey are the ones I use to get too, the grape was the 'best' to me, but I didn't 'drink' any of them.. they all tasted disgusting, and the thought of mixing them in another drink which meant I had to drink it for a while was a horrible idea to me.

I would 'shoot' 1/2 at a time. Once in the morning, once in the evening. Much like alcohol, shoot half and chased it with water..

I like taking the shots too but not a huge fan on the tastes. I pick mine up at Walmart for like $1.25 each. I will have to check out the site you posted.

I was told by my dietitian, and correct me if I am wrong, your body only takes in 28g of Protein at a time. So if you take the whole shot at once wont you be wasting all that extra precious Protein? I have been splitting it because I dont want to waste any protein or money :tongue:

I don't have any documentation for you but I have read in a lot of places that its a myth that we can only absorb so much a time. If I wasn't straining to type this I'd google it for you. I know that I was told the first 3 months are when we usually don't come close, so thats where I'm focusing on, after that I'll probably still need to keep them around, I know when I go to drs appts and such it messes with my Protein and fill days are back to the liquid diet. I like the grape, haven;t tried the others yet though. Went with what I knew I liked best.

Yep I agree with you on the nasty taste, and I too shoot them like a "shot" they were great after my Tummy Tuck too, as I had no appetite what so ever.

I buy the blue rasberry ones

I just ordered mine. I got the fruit punch and the variety pack. Has anyone tried the fruit punch? And by the way, I used the promo code today and it was a straight $5.00 off. $6.00 for shipping but still...totally worth it.

I clicked on this thread and went fix myself a drink before I read it. I am drinking half a fruit punch mixed with cherry limeaid drink mix from Wal-Mart. I think the bullets are gross alone.

I have a question:

I only drink 1/2 a bullet a day. Should I put the other half in the fridge, or just leave it out? I have been putting it in the fridge cause I don't know.

Hi Denise,

My DH is looking to see if the bullet specifies on it anywhere. He just told me its not written anywhere. I've been screwing the lid back on for later in the day I literally do 1 1/2 ounces at a time. I did some research on absorption and most people who aren't working out extremely can only absorb approx 20 grams at a time, so I do 1/2 a grape bullit in the early morning a shake with 15 grams around noonish and the other 12 of the bullit in the evening. This way I'm getting 57 grams without food and since I'm just at the stage 2 phase thats pretty good. Mt dr thinks they are a real good idea for at least the first 3 months and then on tose days you know you probably won't get to eat right. I also think the grape one tastes better cold. I haven't tried the other flavors yet and probably won't. Gppd Luck :thumbup:

Call me crazy, but I love the taste of them. I just went to GNC at lunch today and bought a case of the orange. Yummy!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
