I use Pure Protein vanilla. Add a teaspoon of extract (either vanilla, pineapple, coconut, or banana flavors) and it tastes pretty good. To give it a chocolate flavor I add a little sugar-free chocolate pudding mix. For me, I actually find that mixing it in a mug with an electric hand mixer makes it much smoother than using a shaker and easier to clean than using a blender. Good luck & be positive - it will be worth it!

Anyone know how long the powdered Protein remains good? I've had some in my cabinet for about a year. It has been opened.

I have heard that Unjury tastes the best but you have to send for it. I am very happy with getting Atkins Royal chocolate at Walmart. I prefer a Protein drink that is already mixed because it's so easy and portable. I always keep 1 with me. The taste is OK but nothing to write home about. A nutritionist once told me that it isn't a good idea to buy Protein Drinks that taste GREAT because then they are too much like milk shakes and treats - and that can be dangerous. We can end up drinking too many calories with them. We also need get over viewing food as a treat rather than nutrition.

      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.
