Whey Protein Shots
Does anyone use the Whey Protein Shots? I had lap band surgery 4 years ago and was unsuccessful with it and working towards having gastric bypass. I would sometimes use them when I felt I didn't get enough protein in for the day. Ill add the nutritional information at the bottom of this post. Is it something that I will be able to continue using after the surgery?

What brand did your husband's doc approve? The Yes Whey? Or one of the others that is mostly collagen protein (which we won't absorb)?

what brand are you using? If it's mostly collagen protein, you won't get the protein you need because you won't absorb it.

As another poster said, it depends on which brand you are using. If it is the Yes Whey brand, that is all whey isolate and is a good choice. If it's one of the other brands that is mostly collagen protein, it's a waste of money because you will only absorb a tiny amount of it.
