There are several different brands & have different amounts of Protein. New Whey has 42g protein, and is uner 4 oz. They come in quite a few different flavors, and are a bit thicker than the protein waters, but not bad tasting. A great way to get your protein in on days when you're not very hungry. GNC carries several brands.

Thanks. My Dr. say not to drink my Protein but how is it possible to eat that much protein a day with 3 meals/day and no Snacks? I might try them. I tried the Isopure but too much to drink. Anyway agin thanks for the information.

My doctor does tell me to eat the solid food of course to allow the band to work properly but she did not tell me not to drink Protein. What she did say was to exchange the protein for the meal if I chose to drink it. I drink a Protein Shake in the mornings because I was never a Breakfast person and I take a chewable Vitamin. I also drink one or two depending on how busy I am that day of protein lemonades. They have 15 grams of protein and it is during the time of day I am drinking my liquids anyway so why not get the protein in during that time? It seems to be working for me. But as always, your surgeon has his/her own agenda for you and you should follow their plan.

they are called "new-whey liquid protein"

hope this helps

It is also Syntrax. You can get it on their website. It is fabulous. They gave it to me in the hospital (under their name of course) and I wouldn't rest until I found out what kind it was.

Is it the Grab n' Go? That was the only nectar I saw that came in lemon.

Tks.

Thanks seeing we have the same surgeon and he probably told you something close to or the same as me, I will try them cause I know I am not getting even ½ the Protein. Thanks again everyone.:o

Oh. Sorry. I forgot to say go to Syntrax on your search engine and then to Supplement Warehouse. That is where I buy mine. They have the Grab and Go but I have never used that. I am assuming it is in pouches. If you scroll down from that, you will see the 2 lb tubs. They have all kinds of flavors. I mix the truffle with skim milk in the mornings and then mix the Roadside Lemonade with Water in the afternoon. It only takes six ounces so it is quick to drink and then I continue on with my Crystal Light pink lemonade.

      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...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
