Experience with Bariatric Advantage?

https://www1.bariatricadvantage.com/catalog

My doctor recommended this company for pre and post op products.  Anyone used their shakes, bars, or chrisps?  I'm new to the protein product lines, not sure if these are a good bang for the buck money wise or ounce per protein wise(bigger deal to me).

I use their calcium chews ( caramel)

The high protein shake, bars and crisps didn't seem to have a good protein/carb ratio to me.. my dietitian wants us to use a protein/carb ratio of 3/1 for protein drinks and shakes.. 2/1 for foods, you might have different requirements. 

The nectar protein packets they have on their site are worth checking out and some people who can't tolerate cloudy protein shakes seem to like them...  but you can get a sample package cheaper elsewhere.

Syntrax has a sample special of 15 different flavors for 16.99 including shipping - syntrax nectar

Good Luck!

Thanks for the tip I'm going to order that sample tomorrow.

Thanks for the tip I didn't know this was here.

You are very welcome! :)

I've used their chewable calcium citrate products since I had the sleeve surgery (about 9 months ago) and they've worked well for me. The soft caramel-flavored chews seemed a bit pricey, so I switched to the cherry-flavored tablets. As long as I avoid breathing in the powder as I chew them, they've worked well, too, and are a lot more reasonably priced.

Wishing you the best of luck in your weight-loss journey  

My surgeon's office required that I purchase Bariatric Advantage multivitamins and take them after surgery. I hated them.  Grainy and horrible taste.  I switched to Celebrate multis in either Grape or Orange and like them much better.

The only supplement they offer that rocks my world are the 500mg Calcium chews in caramel, tangerine or peanut butter chocolate.  The snacks they sell are not great for a post op life, in my opinion.

Try Premier Protein RTD shakes from Costco.  I still drink one for breakfast every day.  

Many people here like Quest protein bars.  GNC sells them, usually with a buy three, get one free type of deal.  Some of them are quite delicious, but it feels like you're eating a candy bar.  So buyer beware.

I use the calcium chews and the chewable iron (passion fruit flavor).  Both are spendy, but work well for me.

Their multi-vitamin made me so nauseous :(
