What Type of Protein Shake?
Hi,
If you go to the RNY board I recently posted a thread about Protein. There were several suggestions made and someone even posted a link to tons of different shake recipes to make with protein. I was also told not to buy to much of one kind because our taste buds would change after surgery. Hope this helps and good luck!

Loving my new life and all the wonderful things that go with it, on to my next journey! 99 pounds down and about 10 more to go but it has been a heck of a ride...
You want a Whey based protein (milk), its more complete than soy based proteins.
You want something with little or no sugar and lots of protein. There are a million brands out there and its really based on taste preference.. what one loves another does not. Order samples or find someplace you can buy samples at and start trying - also what you like pre-op you may not post-op so dont go crazy purchasing proteins. I found some I liked pre-op were just too thick post-op.

This might be out of your price range but there is a Protein Sample Kit on BariatricEating.com that is $59.99 and it comes with the Before and After book and Blender Ball Shaker! I think I'm getting it some time this week. I put the link up so you can take a look at it! Oh and I heard that the Lean Dessert is really good!
