Protein drinks feedback (MPO)

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if any one here has tried the "Profect" protein drinks? Well, I had ordered a sample pack of 4 vials which arrived at my home the day after my surgery. I hadn't tried any yet, but had put them all in the refrigerator to chill...well... I decided to give them a try today and couldn't stand neither one of them. My sample pack came with the following flavors: Blue Raspberry Swirl®, Cool Melon Splash®, Fresh Citrus Berry® and Grapefruit Mango. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT I AM A PICKY EATER/DRINKER... Personally, it was a waste of my money... Thought I share this with you. And, if there is anyone out there who actually likes these, please let us know... Take care all & God Bless! Dolly

Dolly, the only one I like that I've tried thus far is SmartForme 'Wildberry Passion'. I drink two of those a day (15 grams of protein per shake) and love 'em! They have a web site too. I believe it's just www. smartforme.com.

Hey Mrs. G! How are ya, hun? Haven't tried that one yet. So far, I've tried the UNJURY unflavored, vanilla, and chocolate (I like them okay, but do prefer the unflavored to mix with other foods). Next time, I'll try the SmartForme. Thanks for your reply. Have a nice evening! Dolly

I'm trying my Unjury samples now. Yesterday I tried the strawberry sorbet (didn't care for it, but it was ok) and today I'm trying their chocolate. I need to order more of the Smartforme myself, I'm down to 4 packs. I go Friday for my first post-op check up. Have you had yours yet? How did it go? I went back to work this week, I stayed until 3:30 yesterday (big mistake) and almost fell asleep at the wheel on the way home. Today will be a shorter work day for me!! Hugs~ Connie

Good Morning, Mrs. G!! I see you're either up late or couldn't sleep much and got up waaayyyy too early...try to get your rest, you need as much energy as you can manage to get to handle going to work. I went back to work on Monday; my boss was still away and was returning to NY that evening, so I went in to catch up with all the emails, regular mails, etc. It wasn't bad, I was there for 5-1/2 hrs, but I DID NOT drive-DH drove me and then picked me up; which he also did yesterday. Yesterday I went for my first post-op check up. My surgeon was very happy and I was happy (I guess) because I weighed 254. I hoped to have lost more, but considering I gained while at the hospital and came home at 268, this means overall since going into surgery I lost an average of 14 lbs (am I making sense??). Any how, not bad for the first week out I suppose. But the best part of the visit was when he gave me the GREEN LIGHT to start adding solids (making sure they're either pureed before consumption or I chew 20-25 times per bite until I turn the food into mush myself). This was great news for I was having major issues with the liquid only stage and couldn't take it anymore Well, hun, gotta go to work now...first time driving myself because DH doesn't feel up to getting up yet and wants to sleep in...let's see how this goes...wish me luck! Hope you have a very nice day and take care of yourself... God Bless Dolly
