Protein Drinks vs. Protein Powders

Which one do u drink and what brand is better. I really need to get some before surgery.



Thanks

There are allot of them out there, and your taste buds are going to change after surgery, I am told. I have been using a product call Isopure. it comes in both Liquid, and powder. it is a very pure form of whey protein, about 40 grams a serving. You can also contact Vitalady on this site. she has her own company and can make recommendations.

But Remember do not buy allot at first because you may not want it after surgery.

Try checking out my website. bariatriclinks.com
Many of the places on the website have protein powders or ready made protein drinks. You can purchase samples from them. I reccommend that you start with that. Remember that your taste buds will change after surgery. The only thing with protein drinks that are made already are more costly than the powders. I hope this helps you out. If you have more questions feel free to PM me or post on the board to ask others. Good luck with your surgery and weight loss journey.
 Personally right now I really don't care for the powder protein, but like I said it might change after I have surgery.

I have two so far that I like....I have Whey Protein (powered) Choc. and Nectar Fuzzy Navel (powered) Do you have to drink any more your surgery? I'm doing 2 weeks before.  

I used GNC 100% Whey up until about a month ago and now it gags me. I never could get the Isopure downBut some people love it. I ahve tried click and like it ok and will be geting some the next time I go to the valley. I would say go onlone and get  a bunch of samples and try them before and after your surgury. My tasted have changes with a lot of stuff.

I love Atkinks Chocolate Royale premade shakes. But my tasted definitely changed after surgery. Some website offer samples. Look around for them.

Wishing you wellness,

i like the premier protein drinks from Cosco.....the Isopure tastes like a Horses a@@ is you ask me, i drank it for 4 days and thought i was gonna die......but im only 6 days post-op......what do i know?....lol...Melissa

Melissa, I don't know what a horse A$$ taste like but I sure know what it smell like and I totally agree with you. And I could only drink about 2 ozs. of the stuff.

That is why I can probably drink it, I have no sense of smell.  But then their are some folks that would argue that I just don't have sense. Last one I will recommend is World Wide Protein Shake, I got it at Trader Joe's, it has 35 grams a can, and comes  in chocolate & vanilla.

I am a pre-op and in a few weeks I probably won't like any of them

I bought some Whey .. the one that has the most protein .. Vanilla and some Chocolate.. it was on sale at GNC buy one get 1 free ... I also bought some B12 vitamins .. the ones that desolve under your tongue... buy one and get 1 free .. So, I have heard the same things ..

Everyones taste changed after Surgery ....
Don't buy alot of stuff .. because you never know ...
Try stuff before .. which won't help if your taste will change.. but, ....

Figures that there is no ... one answer .. just more to keep us confused.nice.
