No, but I mix mine with coconut milk. It is yummy and much better than dairy milk.

oh yes, all mine pre-op were made with Water. To be honest, once they sat in the fridge for 20 min, I could not tell. Plug your nose and down the hatch!

Is it because of calories? It is there a medical reason? I put in a call to my Dr to ask.

The ones I used had to be mixed with Water. Most have some kind of "milk" powder in them already and yes it is because of calories. It might be hard but the preop is only a short period of time, best to suck it up and just get on with it, it will be over before you know it.

My pre-op were with Water. I just tried to get them down as fast as possible. Now I use unsweetened almond milk.

I hate shakes with Water. I use skim milk and I know people use almond milk. Maybe ask if you can use the almond milk its very low in calories.

Preop was Water, could use milk post op. I used nectar Cookies and cream. It was good with slightly warm water.

I make mine with unsweetened almond coconut milk( yes! They make a combination one, Blue Diamond brand) It's thinner than milk but tastes SO good.

BUT if your doctor requires Water you should follow her/his instructions.

      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.
