Look at Click, it has espresso in it which I like. Not sure if you can have it in the pre op diet though, my doctor was ok with the caffine. Pre-op I mostly stayed on the Bariatric Advantage shakes as they are thicker and the Fiber in them made me feel fuller than other shakes I have since tried

EAS (Lean Version) also has a low calorie Protein powder I recently picked up from Target that had some Fiber.< /p>

The "gold standard" Protein for bariatric patients is "whey isolate protein", because it has all of the amino acids we need for proper nutrition on a bandster diet.

I have used the Wheybolic Extreme from GNC from the beginning of my journey. I'm sensitive to chemical tastes and aftertaste, and actually like these shakes in both the chocolate and Cookies 'n cream flavors.

As per my surgeon, each shake should provide you with a minimum of 20g of protein. The GNC powder (1.5 scoops) mixed with 8oz of 1% milk provides 37g of protein.

Get in the habit of reading the nutrition labels to make certain you know what ingredients are in the food you eat, and also if they provide the nutrition you need.

I really like the Unjury strawberry Sorbet mixed with light lemonade because it is nice and thin. Once the Protein dissolves it is just like strawberry lemonade. I also like to use bipro plain whey protein in my iced lattes in the morning. I don't even notice the Protein Powder anymore. I'm also a HUGE fan of the Unjury chocolate splendor. Sometimes I blend in a little Peanut Butter and its delicious! You can order both brands online.

Unjury tastes great. They are whey based which is milk Protein. They can all be mixed with non fat milk if you like. I mix the strawberry with light lemonade (I bet if mixed with milk it would taste like strawberry milk yum!) and the chocolate with milk. They aren't thick and they taste great!
