The best protein supplement



Recommended Posts

I just wanted to share with everyone the best Protein supplement. It is from a website called egg whites international. I swear it is totally tasteless and way low in carbs and calories. (2g carbs 120 cal 30g protein) You can mix it with salad dressings, Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup, any juice, coffee (as long as it's cold) anything. You can mix it with sugar free Jello. It is awesome! I know that sometimes it is hard to get in all 60g of protein a day and that those shakes taste gross and get old after a while and this stuff is really great. That's all!!

Hi Razz - I checked into their web site. I just want to make sure I wasn't missing something. Is their only Protein supplement liquid egg whites? I was looking on their site for a powder form but didn't see any.

If this is a liquid supplement, how does it not go bad in shipping, etc?

Any information will be greatly appreciated as you are right, I am having trouble getting in enough Protein and I can really tell.

Yeah it is in liquid form only. I think that it is the way they pasturize the egg whites. They say you can keep them refridgerated up to 8mos and if opened 3-4mos. They can also be frozen. My Dr. wants me on 60g of extra Protein per day and I seem to go through them before they could ever go bad. I usually mix a cup with some sugarfree chocolate Syrup or sugar free coffee Creamers and enjoy. They are really good. Hope that helps :blushing:

does anyone know of a Protein powder/shake/whatever...

that does not have ANY aritificial sweetners. I cannot even use Stevia...i think there is another one too that is derived from sugar. I cannot think of the name right now.

I get Migraines from any of these types of sugars, and don't want to waste my money on them.

TIA,

With the egg whites you control what you add to them. There is nothing extra added into them so you can mix them with anything you want that isn't warm. If you don't want to add extra calories iced coffee is always good. Hope that helps!

on the site for the egg whites, it looks like they are saying it's 26g of protien in a CUP.

that seems like a lot of eggwhite to drink.

it seems like a GREAT alternative to protien powders/drink/bars for me since almost everything for me will have artificial sugars or steva (sp?) or splenda (that's the other name i couldn't think of yesterday!

I really like Braitric Advantage. They make great protien shakes. I mix mine with soy milk, as I am lactose intolerant. The soy makes the shakes extra thick wich is realy nice.

do you need to take Protein supplements for life? and around how much is it costing you per month?

No, you don't have to take Protein supplements for life but I can see myself always having it around. You do need it when you get fills because for 24-48 hours following, you need to be on liquids. I also like using it because it's a good thing for you body and great nutrition. It's good protein without the fat and high calories. Hard to say how much it will cost you per month because that depends on what stage you're at. In the beginning following surgery, you use it alot. I'm 7 months out and have a protin shake maybe a few times a week. powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury powder costs around $17.00 a container and you'll get 15-16 shakes from that. Comparing other supplements, this is very reasonable.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
