Does anyone have any thoughts or experience with Herbalife Protein Shakes? I have used them in the past and would like to use them for my pre and post-op diet. If anyone has any info I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you!

Not sure what kind of info you're looking for? They are very low in calories and you can add extra Protein to the shakes. You can use Water or soy milk, too.

I have a shake shop that I go to and she uses herbalife.

My husband also became a "distributor" so that he could buy the products at price. (so we can make shakes at home)

I have used the shakes in the past and really like the taste. I was hoping that I could use them for my pre-op and post-op diet but another response was that the shakes are made from soy Protein and whey protein is better. Any thoughts? Are you using the Herbalife shakes for your pre and post op diet? Did your nutritionist/dietician recommend it?

Well - I had to stick with medifast products for my pre-op, so the shakes were out (I would have KILLED for a shake, however...LOL).

Post-op, I did a couple shakes a week and I continue to do a couple, replacing Breakfast, a week.

Not sure at the whey verus soy - my husband and I always went to this shake shop and my NUT said that they were a good source of Protein. And, with things harder to "go down" in the morning, shakes are perfect.
