Yep. Buy a different Protein shake. Atkins and Carb solutions are pretty palatable (25 grams of Protein) for the low carb. I use one called Ultramet (Carb balanced) that is pretty good, too - and it has 42 grams of Protein per serving.

If you have lots of the yucky stuff, Splenda, Cinnamon and chocolate extract are good for masking the flavor of a bad shake.

Good luck!!

I used 1/2 skim milk and 1/2 1%chocolate milk. Tasted good to me, and I am very picky. ONe thing that helped was to blend well and pulse several times in the blender.

I have been on Myocel since Sunday and it is tolerable. I mix it with Silk Soy milk. Must put it in the blender, but it is pretty good. I like both the vanilla and the chocolate.

I did try some frozen blueberries and a little splenda, but that did not do anything for me. Then I put in some of my sugar free peach tea with the vanilla, and that was pretty good. Think I might try it with some coffee next.

Today something weird happened... and I still can't believe it. I had a shake for Breakfast, ate a low carb lunch, drank a shake at around 2:30, and I am still not hungry.

I must drink another shake tonight to get my three in for the day. But I think that is going to be dinner. Crazy hugh?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
