I use body fortress for the powdered Protein. For the liquid shakes I use Eas, Atkins, slim fast low carb/high protein, and now Isopure.< /p>

MUSCLE MILK, MUSCLE MILK AND MORE MUSCLE MILK!!! It works wonders! My sister has had trouble controlling her blood sugar for a couple of years, she started having 1 shake a day and it has brought her levels to almost a normal range. It did the same for me along with my preop diet, I haven't had to take my medication for more than 3 weeks now. The ready to drink version tastes unbelieveable, but for the sake of saving $$$ I use the powder, still better than anything else I've tried...and I've tried MANY!

I use to use Body Fortress, you should spend the extra $2.00 and get Muscle Milk, not as chalky and it tastes great!!! I have banana, blueberry, strawberry and chocolate so I'm able to be very creative with new "concoctions". To be honest, I have had better results with MM, too.

The place I went to doesnt carry muscle milk but honestly they only shakes i have tasted and thought it was really good has been special k Protein Shakes. but it is too high in sugar. the Isopure is pretty good but it has a slight after taste.

I use Premiere, Muscle Milk and Isopure. Premiere is what they offered at my doctor's office and its not bad. Muscle Milk does taste good. Someone on here told me that GNC lets you try different shakes before you buy, and when you mention Lap-Band, they know exactly which one fall in the Protein, Calorie, and Sugar requirements from the Doc. :D

Where do you get your primer from?

I love Unjury. I order it online. You can order individual packets of their flavors so you can try it and see if you like it! Another thing I do sometimes is mix powdered milk with regular milk to make what my dr's office calls power milk. Then stir in a carnation instant breakfast!

      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.
