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!)!

      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.
