I started drinking Optifast from my surgeon. It comes in vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. It comes in a juicebox. I purchased the vanilla and chocolate. They tasted just about passable, but I put it in a blender with some ice and it improved the taste drastically. I like the chocolate better than vanilla, but the vanilla is good for a switch. It was, however, EXPENSIVE. I have to drink 5 of these drinks a day and each case came with 72 drinks. I purchased 2 cases and it cost me $130.00. This, however, is the only drink that my surgeon wants his patients to drink prior to and for 2 weeks after the surgery.

When I realized I needed the Protein, I went to GNC and was going to try the iso pure whey powder but I didn't want to buy such a big jug with out tasting it first. Saw the Isopure H2O and bought a few bottles of that. Ricanlady- thanks for the hints- they do taste a little "funny" and I would not have thought to make popsyckles out of it!

I like Slim Fast High protein/Low carb vanilla flavor. It has 20 g Protein, 4 g carbs, and 180 calories.

I just bought Bene Protein and mixed with crystal light and noticed a small change in taste. It mixed well in the cold Water. I ordered it from walgreens.com

I dont like Advantage Edge. It tasted like chalk.

Good luck to you.

Also thanks to everyone for the info about the Peanut Butter. I LOVE PB.

I bought some Diet Fuel plus .... i DON'T recommend it ... taste disgusting .. avoid..

I'm now going to try the Lean Body stuff....

My difficulty is that i am in a hotel for 4 nights a week and during the day i am on a site that doesn't really do anything but sandwiches so i'm stuggling for good nutrition during the day ... so far been drinking the shakes my surgeon provided

I travel a lot too...I have been drinking the Adkins Advantage drinks. They only have 170 calories, 1 gram of sugar and 18 grams of protein!

The are in a can, so they travel very well. Easy to shake up and poor over ice in a meeting!

Sugar1, where are you from? I just had my consult with my nutritionist yesterday and she said that the doctor I am going to has a specific drink he likes his patients to use too, and that it will cost about $150.00. She also said I will have to drink five per day. I am in Jacksonville, Florida and just wondered if we are using the same doctor.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
