yes or no to protein bullets!!!

I HAVE A QUESTION TO ANYONE WHO WILL ANSWER. I WAS TOLD NOT TO USE THE PROTEIN BULLETS AND I THINK IT WAS MY NUTRITIONIST, AND THEN LAST WEEK AT PRE-OP THE NURSE SAID THEY WERE GREAT. ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS, SUGGESTIONS, OPINIONS ON THIS.     I THINK THEY ARE A NEAT IDEA, BUT DON'T WANT TO SPEND ALL THAT MONEY IF THEY AREN'T GOOD FOR ME.                                                       THANKS

if you are new out I would say use them it is a sure fire way to get in the protein I would not have made it without them at first  they are yummy some ppl think they are to strong if so mix with some water but I think it is worth the money at first stages in your start, good luck

I went to per-op classes last week, so I am getting close to having my surgery, just getting prepared. thanks, I think I will order some.

I think the protein bullets are great too! One way to save money is to buy the 41g size of protein and then you can split it into 2 drinks. If it is too strong(sweet) you can mix it with water and some ice and even add alittle of your favorite flavored water and it tastes great! I know that www.vitalady.com sells them individually if you want to try them first and you can get one at GNC too but it's not a brand that I recognize. If you go to the vitalady site you can also get samples of different protein powders too so you can try before you put all the money into it. If you do that order a sample of the "All The Whey" orange cremesickle and I have a recipe that makes it taste just like an orange julius....I'm not a orange person but its really good.

Take care!

I would check with your nutritionist first.  I know my nutritionist said they were not a good source of protein.  They are made from whey protein concentrate instead of whey protein isolate.  I did try them and personally wasn't a big fan.  I stick with Body Fortress that you can get at Walmart, Kroger, Tartget, etc.  Unjury is another great product and it comes in an unflavored version that you can mix into your food.  I would check out those brands.  Good luck to you!
