I have a large container of protein powder I had bought for my son during football season and I was wondering how it compared and if it would be even an option for me. There is 2 kg left. I sure and would hate to waste it if it is viable after the RNY.  I am wondering if anyone had tried this particular and or how it compares to what other had successfully used or are using as far as stats go. Thanks so much ten days to go and trying to get this all sorted :)

It is "LeanFit Whey Protein Shake"

It just says whey not isolate so Im not sure but the basic stats are  1 scoop provides:

Cals:120

Fat:2g

Carbs:2g (1 is sugars)

Protein:25g

Fat:2g

Thank you so much I know this topic has likely been beaten to death and asked a million times I am just so overwhelmed about it.

I know you've answered this before Kelly, but how do you make your protein coffee? Thanks.

Do you just mix a scoop in with a cup of coffee?

I'm pretty sure it was Kelly that shared this 'recipe' from another poster with me.

Protein coffee
Home version:
- Pour ~ 1/3 to 1/2 cup milk into a LARGE coffee cup.
- Nuke for 20 seconds, or until just luke warm, not hot.
- Add protein powder and stir with a for****il blended. Let sit for ~ 5 minutes (this seems to help with the dissolving)
- Add hot coffee or chai tea to this mixture and stir well.
- Enjoy

Work version:
- Pour ~1/3 to 1/2 cup milk into Contigo travel mug
- Add 1 scoop protein powder
- Stir with fork (this helps keep protein chunks from getting all jammed in the lid because they are a pain in the ass to get out)
- Take to work (or just let it sit for 5 minutes and move to next step)
- Add hot coffee or chai tea to 1/2 inch from the top.
- Put on lid and shake well
- Put napkin over mouth hole and open pointing away release pressure

Yep, that's the one. I use the Contingo mug at home now too. I haven't tried it with Chai tea yet.
