Hi Rainbow, welcome to LBT!

I'm sure you can imagine just how many people in your shoes have asked that same question. There are lots of suggestions for Protein drinks, but the one I've heard tastes the best is Nature's Best Zero Carb Isopure drinks. They are whey Protein which is the best for you, and they come premixed in bottles. They are clear and are fruit flavored, unlike the chalky powered mixes that leave horrid aftertastes. They are a bit more expensive, but you'll only need them for a few weeks. They contain 40 grams of protein per bottle, so you can drink half in the morning and the other half later in the day. (the body can only absorb so much protein at a time).

Now that I'm on regular foods again, I get all of my protein (70-100 grams per day) by eating fish and chicken.

Best of luck with your surgery and your lapband journey. Keep us posted on your progress. :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
