Dr. Aldo — Fri, 07 Jan 2011 12:11:27 +0000

Scottsdale – Hi, just tried this one out and it tastes great! I’m going to recommended to my plastic surgery patients. I got this recipe from the website, BariatricEating.com.

Here’s the Bear Claw Protein Shake they recommend:

1 cup water
1 1/2 scoops Lean Dessert Cinnamon Roll powder
1 tablespoon Cinnamon Bliss or Caramel Sauce
2 tablespoons sf almond syrup
1 teaspoon sf lemon syrup OR drop of lemon extract OR 1/8 teaspoon lemon zest
6 ice cubes

The instructions recommend you combine all ingredients in a blender and process.

For whom do I recommend this shake? I think this supplement good for any cosmetic surgery patient who has had bariatric surgery and is thinking about having plastic surgery after major weight loss.

When to start taking protein shakes before major body contouring surgery? My recommendations include the use protein supplements at least 4 weeks before lower bodylift surgery and continuing for a month after the plastic surgery operation.

Scottsdale – Here comes our Arizona weather. This bariatric smoothie should really help in this heat! I tried this one myself, just to be sure it was cool enough. This is a new bariatric recipe courtesy of bariatric vitamins 4 life. This one was posted by Tina F.

I believe this smoothie will hit the spot, whether it’s been years since your surgery or just recent post-op. For those that are recently post-surgery from plastic surgery after major weight loss, this smoothie can help to keep you well hydrated, and refreshed.

Please check and make sure these ingredients are tolerable on your bariatric diet. I recommend with any sweet drink to take your time, enjoy every sip, and don’t just gulp it down! In this way you can avoid any dumping symptoms.

Ingredients: 4 servings.

1 cup raspberries
1 banana
1 cup cold water
1 cup nonfat milk
1 tsp. vanilla
10 ice cubes

All the ingredients should be placed in a blender and processed until smooth. Pour the smoothie into glasses to serve.
