Well, I am IN LOVE with the Spirutein Peanut Butter Chocolate Swirl. I could drink a gallon of it and have to be careful because I know 1) too much protein and 2) I'd never poo again.

I saw a great sale at Vitamin Shoppe online and ordered another 2# can of it and a can of Designer Whey in PBChocolate Caramel. I mixed that up this morning.

Its a big difference...only 3oz of water instead of 8oz of milk (Spirutein) and it was thin like chocolate milk. I liked it though. Quick easy and kept me "full" until a snack of light yogurt at 10:30 and then lunch at noon. Normally I am chowing triscuits like a fiend.

I haven't had lapRNY yet...still in the 6month phase prior to...but I do like the protein drinks for an occassional meal substitute. Especially when the alternative is McDonalds. I think I could even mix up the DW and add it to coffee!!! It's really tasty. :biggrin:

Thanks! You're like having a personal shopper...thanks for taste-testing...I've added these to my list. Now if only I could get a personal chef...you know how I love to cook!

thanks for the tip. i am pre banding (mid january) and need all the info i can get. good luck!
