I use Isopure Zero Carb Protein Shakes post workout. They are only 60 calories, 15 grams of Protein and zero carbs(for six ounces) and are shelf stable and premixed. I get them at Meijer, but they are also available at GNC in larger bottles.< /p>

I know it's not vanilla, but they work well for me.

I also have another question. I have been getting pain in the back of my shoulder when I drink shakes. I get this when I over eat but why when I am taking in liquids? It is so painful.

Are you blending the shakes with ice to the point where they are frothy on top? That got me. You can try to let your shake sit for a while before drinking it because it has lots of air mixed in.

Good idea but I was noticing when drinking I was surprised it was not very cold.

Pretty sure the pain is from all of the air. See if it makes a difference to stir with a spoon rather than use a blender. Not sure about why it isn't staying too cold.

I decided to go with Bodytech whey tech pro 24. It is a Vitamin Shoppe brand and on sale until the end of month. I bought 2lbs of chocolate and 2lb of vanilla for $38.00. Then i bought unsweetened almond milk vanilla for 30 calories a cup.

Please let me know how it is. I looked at that same brand when I was in Richmond for my adjustment. I ended up getting Designer Whey. I like it, but I like to try a new brand each month. Hope you're doing great. I'm still hoping we can meet for coffee sometime soon.

I have heard that your body can absorb only a certain amount of Protein. You might want to check with your nutritionist if you have not already. It is an additional. 110 calories you are adding plus anything else you add to shake. I add half frozen banana and a heaping tbls of natural Peanut Butter made from only peanuts nothing else added and a cup of 30 calorie vanilla unsweetened almond milk. Two scoops wild not be nutritional for me. Just a thought I may be wrong. I am very glad to know that you like the shake. It is so hard to find the right one,

      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.
