Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass |  Pro stat 64 So...always looking to try some kind of protein supplement that doesn't su*k!! I saw/read online that pro stat 64 (64 is the sugar free version). "Great tasting, sugar free, lactose free..." it's suposed to have all these enzymes and be highly digestible, 60 calories in 2 tablespoons and 15 grams of protein - take directly like a shot of whiskey, not diluted into water like a bullet. I though excellent source of quick protein with out having to nurse it a gallon of water, or eat a whole bag of soy chips (good but too many calories) to get the protein, and I'm limited on whey protein because I'm dairy intolerant (can only have fat free dairy)...blah, blah blah... It's draino with a butter pecan scent!!! Nasty stuff! Even at just 2 tablespoons at a time - your whole body convulses, it burns the throat and belly, you have to slap the counter just to make yourself swallow and then go brush your tongue. I tried it the first time a few days ago - whoa nelly - but I don't want to pour it down the sink (and not because I don't want to waste money, I'm afarid it will kill my septic) no, but really, so I tried it again today, thinking come on, just a quick throw back and it's over - it's over alright! Brought tears to my eyes!

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

| Sorry for your bad experience. We're not laughing at you, but with you. Hopefully you can find something else that you can take for protein that isnt' such a bad experience.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | LOL your so FUNNY! LOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have never tried it and I personally do find most protein drinks are nasty. I do understand all that. Most are made with Splenda also and I cant do that. I get mine in by food only pretty much. Your still early out so you need the drinks but not the 64 stuff......... LOL. |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I bought the butter pecan and the wild cherry. I tried the cherry straight up and it didn't feel good on my tummy. However, if you mix it with cyrstal light lemonade it is the bomb! I used the butter pecan in milk with a dash of davinci sugar free vanilla syrup and it is pretty good. |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Thanks Valyn, I do have the cherry too (it's actually worse than the butter pecan - (IF THAT'S POSSIBLE!!) But I didn't want to waste yet another protein supplement - so thanks, I can try both of those, I have crystal light lemonaid and some Davinci syrups.
