I use unflavored soy Protein Powder from GNC. It has 25gms of Protein. I started out adding this to frozen and liquid crystal light and blending it.you have to give the powder time to dissolve so blend it, wait 10min and blend it again. I wasn't getting enough calories so now I blend it with some frozen fruit and yogurt. That way I get some Fiber and Calcium. I love it. I can't stand the other stuff. It all tastes like chemicals to me.

You don't have to be a smart a*s about it. This is suppose to be a proper site.

Um you said "You can't beat that price" and I replied "you sure can't". Not sure how that is being a smart ass. You're not very nice.

Read your own response.

"oh wow you sure can't! I paid $10.00 for that nasty stuff haha. Thanks!"

Meaning, wow that is a great price, only $5.00 for Muscle Milk on eBay considering I paid $10.00 for the stuff I bought, which was disgusting. Which is why I started this entire post, because I wanted something that tasted good. And then I ended with a "Thanks!" for the advice. Now explain to me how that response that I originally posted was being a smart ass?

The best stuff I've ever found is by Syntrax (www.si03.com), called nectar comes in many different fruit flavors, such as Roadside Lemonade, Pink Grapefruit, Fuzzy Navel, Lemon Tea, Crystal Sky (kind of a fruit punch), etc.

They are 90 to 100 calories a scoop, 23 grams of Protein and NO CARBS. They also have what they call "sweets" in flavors like strawberry, chocolate Truffle, and others.

You can buy them directly from Syntrax or BariatricAdvantage.com or from Netrition.com (where I order them from).

If they sound interesting, but you're not sure.. go to the syntrax site, find their email and ask them about samples. They will usually send a first time customer a collection of all the different flavors for 1.00/packette. and no shipping.

Hey Sandy1! How are you doing?? How's recovery going???

How did you like Dr. Hollis?

I had pre-op at TR yesterday and met Dr. Reilly and he seems nice...cleared for surgery, but had to move the date to June so I don't have to miss work, as it's impossible to get a sub teacher!!!

Keep me posted on your results!! :rolleyes:

Thanks!

I ordered the sample pack and can't wait to try it!!! I've gotten sample sizes from several different brands so I can have some variety.

I agree the Syntrax is awesome! You can call there 800 number and get the samples. I think I paid around $11 for mine and there were a BUNCH of different flavors.

      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.
