Definitely choose Protein shakes which contain only 100% whey isolate protein...they are the best choice nutritionally for bariatric patients. Especially when first on the liquid diet and just post op, it's important to get the most Protein possible per shake to meet your daily protein goals.

I purchased mine at GNC, not inexpensive, but close and convenient.

Keep searching, I had to go through several brands before I found one which I could tolerate.

Best wishes...

I read in one of the forums that Premier shakes from Cotsco are pretty good, maybe you want to give them a try.

Nice, I am going to be banded July 18 and those are the ones I am going to buy. Let me ask you something, how many weeks of preop diet your doctor recommended you?

I am sooooo loving the Protein Shots. They are listed as one of my choices and they are cold and tropical and actually quite tasty! I just slam them and then drink a propel Water. I was surprised I actually liked them so.. $10 for 6 at WM, Amazon is where I will get my next batch. I have had so many Protein Shakes in my life that I just can't fathom drinking them straight for 2 weeks. They are so heavy and I am not a huge sweets/chocolate/vanilla person. 26 grams per shot no sugar no carbs, Vitamins a,b and e I believe...

I use Visalus!!!!! It's by far the best and most amazing shake I have come across. No sugar, and it's lactose free:)) and best yet, it tastes like cake batter

They are in a long tube that looks like a vial. Body Fortress super Protein. fruit punch flavor. $10 at WM for a 6 pack. Amazon has them a little cheaper.

In Texas, I need something cool quick and NOT heavy.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
