Lori Jo 41 Posted April 11, 2013 I made mine with Water, I would add like 6 ice cubes and fill the cup to measure 1 c. with water and then put half of a banana in it with the chocolate, yummy..they are thinner, with milk it was so thick...ewww, also our doc let us put in a tablespoon of Peanut Butter, I use the trop 50 o.j. and add that to vanilla, it is like an orange Julius, mmmm and then add a cup of cold coffee to the chocolate for a yummy mocha coffee shake.....you can also add fruit, etc....good luck!!

dearlh 92 Posted April 12, 2013 Water? yuck! Dont think I could handle that. Reminds me of growing up, mom would make grilled cheese samiches an Tomato soup.....with water an not milk! I too use unsweetened almond milk. YUMMY! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kimbergro 16 Posted April 12, 2013 I mixed mine (Bariatric Advantage) with Water and chugged it with a fat straw. The PA told me I could mix it with anything, but don't go over 1000 calories a day. I did try it with Soup and oatmeal but that was kind of gross. The powder made them too thick. I lost 19 lbs on the pre op diet. I use vanilla Arbonne shakes now with Almond milk and fruit. They are actually delicious! Looking back, I could have done that pre op and easily stayed under 1000 calories. Good luck though, and while at the time the pre op diet seems to take forever, it will be worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SueBee01 630 Posted April 12, 2013 I used Water and a little ice. I mixed the Protein flavors chocolate with vanilla and strawberry, all together. Change it up so you don't get sick of the same flavor. You can get through this! I quit all Protein Drinks after a couple months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
forensic6 89 Posted April 12, 2013 Nonfat milk here. Carnation instant Breakfast (no sugar added). Not too bad actually. Just don't have the energy to stay up later than 9:30 anymore. And that's saying a lot for someone who used to regularly stay up past midnight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
