Have you tried muscle milk light? They are less Protein tasting to me. Also I've been adding coffee and sugar free caramel Syrup to vanilla Protein Powder and there is no aftertaste and it's like a vanilla caramel latte.

you can also make your own shakes. i normally like putting in whatever fruits sound good, and you bulk it up. i'm vegan, but if you're not you can just put in some egg whites. i use soy or silken tofu (silken tofu makes a great shake- especially with berries). sometimes i'll use almond milk though the Protein count isn't as high. you could of course use regular milk. finally i also add Peanut Butter and/or avocado depending on hunger levels.

that way you avoid the chalky taste, and can customize it to your tastes, sweetness wise.

      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.
