I can tolerate vanilla Muscle Milk if I'm desperate. But it's not that good, and I've heard that the banana and malt flavors are horrible. I like the Atkins Advantage, Orgain Meal Replacements and the Myoplex Lite. I know a lot of people who really like Isopure, but to me, the whey flavor is too strong.

Oh Crap...my entire post didn't show up in my orginal post!! You don't know what the winner is!! Here it the rest.....

Atkins - excellent shake (could be higher in protein) I felt very satisfied (hunger wise) after drinkingthis shake. I had the Mocha Latte and Dark Choc. I highly recommend it.:)

But the winner is........... Carnation! I took a choc packet and put it in the blender with a 1/2 scoop of unjury powder (just a 1/2 to up the Protein. I added ice and vanilla extract (getting banana extract next time). I blended to make a delicious icy-shake that was filling! Top prize.:D

Well, there's another Protein shake thread going on in the post-op subforum, but I'd also suggest Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey. For some people, flavour doesn't matter. I'm not one of those people. If it has a slight after-taste, I won't drink it for long. The shake I have now is Opt. Nutrition 100% Whey Mocha Cappucino flavour. I've been drinking it two times a day with milk and it's pretty good. It tastes like chocolate milk and I haven't detected an aftertaste. Opt. Nutrition is pretty popular on other fitness forums for their double chocolate and strawberry flavours. Anyway, maybe you'd like to try it. I've also heard good things about GNC's brand.

Premier Protein vanilla or chocolate are good premixed shakes. 11 oz 160 cals and 30 grams Protein and I believe only 1 gram sugar.

I also like GNC powder.

Jay Rob Vanilla Protein Powder is the bomb! Mixed with skim milk and fresh raspberries...I actually look forward to it! It is 25 g of Protein per scoop...110 cal...no sugar...no carbs. 34 g of protein if mixed with a cup of skim milk. It is sweetened with a hint of Stevia...but nothing over powering. It is 100% all natural whey protien. It is pricy but it's the only one I can stand to drink anymore. Funny thing is I had protien shakes every day for the last year...by choice (lol!)!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
