Hello:

Here is a list that was given to me by my nutritionist:

unjury (has website)

Chike (has website)

EAS - Walmart

MetRX - Walmart

Super Boost whey Protein - Walmart

Syntrax Nectar- Amazon.com

Designer Whey

Bariatric Advantage (has website)

Optimum Nutrition (has website)

ISS Complete whey powder

Isopure Perfect Low Carb

Maximum Protein

Labrada Lean Body

Revival soy Protein Powder

these are just a few that are available. some of these will send free samples or sample packets for a small fee. Hope this gets you started. If you can search for the thread "Samples, samples, samples" someone listed about 20 different brands of shakes that we can email or call to get samples. I requested a bunch and have already began receiving them in the mail. This way you can try them before you buy or put out a considerable amount of money and you may not like all of them. Good luck.

I really liked the Unjury, it tasted great, and filled me up. I drank the chicken noodle Soup flavor for dinner and I had a hard time finishing it, I felt stuffed. The sent me a sample packet which in included a thermometer, and container to make drinks in. I have tried a few that were picked up at Wal-mart and wasn't as satisfied. Good luck!!

I really like the Designer Whey chocolate. I like the taste and that it only has 2 g of carb.

I agree with this. Unjury was the only one I loved, I tried Bariatric Advantage and took one sip and spit it out. The eas myoplex lite was tolerable. The unjury chicken soup flavor was the only thing that gave me Protein during my clear stage. I had tried the clear Protein Drinks such as Isopure and wanted to vomit

I bought a handful of samples before settling on Champion Nutrition for my favorite brand. I bought my samples at Vitalady.com. It's not the best looking site, but the prices are good and she has everything from Protein shakes, to Protein Bars, syrups, Vitamins and misc things that anyone with WLS will need. I love it because I save shipping cause they live less than 5 mins from my house. :)

Good luck, I suggest sampling before buying a bulk of something.

I started buying Protein Shakes from Market America for their Transitions Diet here is the link for the shakes. http://www.marketame...tion_shakes.htm There really good and don't have that power chalky texture and they fit into the low glycymic with the high Protein for the pre-op and post-op requirements. If you order please put in the shonnee22@yahoo.com refered you. I actually will order both the chocolate and vanilla and mix them together. For 14 servings it is 29.95 which isn't bad at all. This shake when mixed with Skim Milk has 26g of protein.

      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.
