You can usually get sampled from your doctor or nutritionist. You can also buy samples at the Vitamin Shoppe and other stores like that. You can find lots of way to make shakes taste better by adding things like sf ff pudding miix, sf syrups or pb2(a powdered peanutbutter product) you just have to take chance and learn to be creative. I like unnury and nectar. Nectar because they have tons of different flavors. Best of luck! You can also buy Unjury samples on line.

ANYTHING FROM SYNTRAX! Either their nectar line or their Matrix line, All are awesome and you can't go wrong! I must have 7 different Proteins from them and I love them all.

I agree with Destinedladyd...We have had the choc truffle Roadside Lemonade (Love this one) and the vanilla. You can add anything to the Vanilla one!!! The kiwi straw was not my fav. Not a fan of artificial strawberry.< /p>

I use the premier Protein shakes, in chocolate and vanilla. I get them by the case at costco. They taste good and my doctor approves them. I'm on my last day of the "liquid mile" as I have started referring to it. Surgery tomorrow and I have lost 17lbs in 13 days. I travel alot and need convenince, these taste good enough that I will likely continue them on travel days after I hit solid food.

Good Luck ...

I just wanted to add that I know a lot of people buy pre made shakes. My experience is that none of those satisfy me. I am hungry immediately after. I find making my own shakes and flavoring them with ice blended satisfies me more. Having said that I rarely use shakes after hitting solids. They will not satisfy me enough to be successful and I would much rather eat. Best of luck to everyone!

Premier chocolate! Believe me, I've tried them ALL and Premier are the best. 12 in a case for abt $16 at Sams Club or costco. 30 grams of Protein, only 5 carbs.

I use vanilla or unflavored and then mix in the "Mio-style" drink liquid into the blender. So far, I've added Grape and blueberry. Both rocked and give such better variety! My biggest challenge is getting the frothiness to actually go past my stoma.

      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.
