Out grocery shopping yesterday and decided to try this: Naked (brand) All Natural fruit + Boosts Protein juice smoothie, Protein Zone flavor. It has 32 grams of protein in 15.2 oz, and the only ingredients are basically fruit & protein! (Apple juice, banana puree, orange juice, pinapple juice, whey & soy protein, a little coconut milk extract and the Vitamin C.) I am soooo excited!!! :D Have any of you tried this? What did you think?! I feel like I discovered gold, since I hadn't had a Protein Drink I liked before.

Not to give you a hard time but I just looked it up and it said 250 for 8 oz and only 20 g Protein, 4 g fat. The bottle also holds two servings so really it is 500 cal for 40 g protein. Premier RTD is 160 cal for 30 g protein.

I'm getting ready for surgery and could do with some recommendations for Protein powders, drinks, etc. Any suggestions would be great. I like chocolate flavors, and also want to find a good unflavored powder to mix with other foods.

20 grams of Protein per serving is pretty good though and as a meal 250 calories isn't bad. Plus you have all the other fruit servings and not all the additives which makes Naked juice a very heatlhy choice in my opinion.

I really liked muscle milk and the EAS brand of Protein Drinks. The muscle milk comes in a wide variety of flocked and is tasty. Kinda like a melted milkshake. I lost 19 lbs in 2 weeks prep doing that one. And it kept me full.

Yes, agree, muscle milk is good and like Premier both @ costco. I dropped 15 pre surgery with these two. Still have one for dinner sometimes.

      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.
