i can not even stomach muscle milk (i dont like the malt taste). The only drink I can handle is the Premier Protein shakes in chocolate (premade and sold at Costco). I drink one on ice mixed with about 3-4 ounces of coffee (one sweet n low if you like it sweet or if you add more coffee) every morning. It tastes just like a mocha coffee drink from starbucks and a good breakfast

I really like the whey isolate Protein Powder. I buy mine at Walmart. Mix one scoop with one cup of skim milk, one cup of chopped fruit and a dash of sugar-free pudding mix. Delicioso!

I go on ebay and check out the different types of MUSCLE MILK. They have a lot of different flavors through the dealers.

It's recommended to us threw our Bariatric Center. I'm actually shocked that their are a lot of people saying they don't like it !

I like Cookies, and cream, strawberry milkshake, Peanut Butter and chocolate, chocolate milk, and vanilla creme.

I can only make the suggestion to check out their different flavors. If your interested.

I like Labrada Lean Body on the Go in chocolate and Syntha 6 (only good if you're working out/taking in a lot of water). Maybe buy a more basic type Protein, like Muscle Milk in vanilla and add stuff to it like berries, SF chocolate Syrup, Peanut Butter, etc. for some flavor.

I second Premier premade from costco they now have both chocolate and vanilla. Super convenient. For powder I like Gold Standard whey isolate Double Chocolate (I buy it at Vitamin Shoppe). Store like GNC and Vitamin Shoppe will usually let you return for store credit if you get something you don't like. Also the clerks are really good resources for what flavors people like.

I am very picky and want something that tastes good. I don't wan to have to chug it down, I want to enjoy it. With that said I LOVE the Bariatric fusion shakes. http://www.bariatricfusion.com/ So far I have had every flavor and they are all great.

I have tried many others and they don't compare. You can get sample packets too so you don't need to buy a big tub if you don't want to.

Hope this helps,

Wendy

I have a lactose intolerance, so I really like Isopure from GNC (vanilla and chocolate, not the fruit flavors). That said, you really need to just try different kinds because as you can see from the replies everyone's taste is different.

I'm partial because I work for the corporation that makes these, but EAS Protein Shakes. Preferably the Myoplex strawberry Cream. It's YUM. 210 calories, 2.5g of fat and 25 grams of Protein in a 14oz bottle. I usually drink 2 a day still. biggrin.gif

      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.
