Muscle Milk-Chocolat



Recommended Posts

Hi---I'm getting banded on Aug 9...Ive been trying different Protein Shakes and not having a lot of luck of finding one I LOVE...I just found some I can tolerate. So I keep hearing about Muscle Milk. I bought some last night...my question is did anybody drink it straight or did you blend/mix with something?

Any other shakes receipes you have would be great!

I used the Atkins Advantage shakes during my pre-op weight loss. I will go back post op as well. I can not say that I was the biggest fan at first; but I learned to love them. Honestly, I place them in the freezer prior to drinking them. Not to freeze the shake, but to make it really cold. It has become like a daily treat for me. Im not sure if this is good or not, but it reminds me of having a milkshake and leaves me satisfied.

we discovered that if you use carnation instant Breakfast sugar free vanilla and put a half pack of crystal light strawberry it is awesome.....the carnation shakes (both chocolate and vanilla) are pretty good alone too..:D

I used Muscle Mil Lite ready-to-drink shakes for awhile, until I found Premier Protein ready-to-drink shakes. (premiernutrition.com) I switched because I much preferred the taste of the Premier Nutrition shakes. I had severe gastric issues with powdered shake mixes, and found the ready-to-drink shakes got the job done without any side effects. I still drink a Premier Nutrition chocolate shake in the car on my way to work every morning. (They sell them at costco, in addition to other locations, and their website.)

      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.
