Failure

Lol... autocorrect was being your friend that time

I am glad you realize we want to help you and that you did not get upset. Keep taking care of your health. We are cheering you on!!

that sugar content does seem very high

Not sure if you've gone this route but, I


've enjoyed Kaizen Whey protein isolate from costco.

and apparently I need to learn WHEN to insert a picture. LOL (and maybe how to size them). Hahaha

I have tried the whey protein, and I don't mind it. It's just easier to grab a pre-made.

BTW.....I suffer from the same problem when it comes to adding pics, so I definitely feel your pain.

many drink the premier protein here...

There is a bit of an "apples to oranges" comparison going on here, in that a milk based RTD drink will naturally have some sugar in it (milk typically has 12-13 g per cup) while an isolate powder has little if any naturally occurring in it; so if you mix a powder into milk, as legions of WLS people have been doing for years, it isn't much different than what you get with this product. Granted, some prefer to use one of the faux-milks for this purpose, and some of the RTD drinks may be water based (no wonder I don't get along with them!) but that doesn't seem to make a big difference on people's WLS results. So, it may not be the greatest product out there for one's WLS use, but it isn't a terrible one, either.

As an exercise recovery drink (which I suspect is more of where they are targeting this product) it isn't bad at all, as a somewhat sugary protein is desirable it spike insulin to promote transport of the protein to damaged muscle cells. This is different than what we are typically looking for as a WLS near post-op, but it is a viable use for it under the right cir****tances (I make something like this out of the powders for that purpose, but it isn't for weight loss use.)
