I drink EAS Carrb Control chocolate and it is very good. I would like to know if there are other ones that people really like. I tried Muscle Milk light and did not like it. I look forward to your comments. Thanks.

I have tried GNC Why Isolate and all the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes and I hate them all. To the point where I couldn't keep them down. From what I hear, a lot of people have trouble with whey shakes.

My boss who is a marathon runner bought me some Sun Warrior vanilla powder and it works perfectly for me. It is a rice Protein that is very palatable for me. It's about $45.00 per bag, that that's about 50 servings. It's well worth if for me.

@amyluvslou; I want to make my own as well, but was afraid of using banana (love bananas) and milk because of the carbs. I usually drink EAS vanilla or strawberry Protein Drinks (17 grams protein) or Zoic found at Publix or Big Lots ($5 at Big Lots). the Cookies and cream, and vanilla are my favorites. I also have the Whey Protein and sometimes add that to my protein drinks. I guess I will try your recipe and maybe tweak it. If it keeps you full for 4-6 hours I am for it. I bought a Ninja Warrior Stick Blender and it is the bomb for making shakes. Thanks

I also use EAS. I mix ice, milk, and pb in mine, it last for 2-3 servings and taste awesome. I have also tried half a banana, that was pretty good also.

Another recipe I tried and liked was 1 scoop chocolate protien powder, 1 tbsp instant Decaf coffee, splenda, and ice. It makes something like you would get at Starbucks :)

I use Syntrax Nectar Protein and it is awesome. I have the Vanilla Bean Torte and the chocolate Truffle is really good also. I get mine from The Vitamin Shoppe and they also sell it on ebay and Amazon.< /p>

What about plain old Instant Breakfast? I saw on mine that with milk it's 23 g protein- and my nut said that your body can only digest 25 g or so Protein at a time, so any more in the shake is just a waste?

Since I have an allergy to Splenda and maltodextrin I have a real problem finding Protein drinks and diet items in general. I have found that Bolthouse Farms Protein Plus (chocolate) is an incredible protein supplement as well as Naked juice protein (chocolate). I don't know why the other flavors don't taste good to me but these are smooth and not chalky at all. They are generally in the produce section of the grocery store.

      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.
