I had my surgery a week and day go as of today. My hardest thing to get in is my Protein Drinks right now. I hear that the Protein is what will help with the weight lost and the elactisity of my skin. I have lost 28 lbs since 2/25 and I am excited. I don't want the weight loss to stop or slow down. Please give me some ideas on Protein drinks (already made).

Thanks

I really like EAS AdvantEdge Carb Control. They taste great and they are low in carbs and calories. 110cals and 3 net carbs (varies slightly depending on flavor) 17grams Protein for 11oz.

I was having problems with getting my Protein Drinks down...dislike the taste. I have found some that were not too bad but still having trouble...so I started freezing them. So much better!!! It is kinda like having ice cream.

Has anyone tried fat free frozen yogurt and blended it with the Protein? I was going to try that and see if that was better. I bought the whey protein egg white protein. I'd have to have three shakes of it a day to get in enough protein with what I am drinking. I'll get more if I had some skim milk with it too. I am also having a hard time getting that many liquids down during the day. Just banded yesterday.

      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.
