Can anyone vouch for the Protein drinks/powder sold at BariatricEating.com?? i was interested in it because it is aimed for bariatric patients but wanted to know what the taste was like....

My 16 y/o son drinks the RTD Oh Yeah before workouts. But I found that the Protein wasn't dense for me, i.e., I needed more Protein per ounce than I could get from that shake. I use unjury and mix my whole day's protein requirements in the morning and sip on it throughout the day. I can use 12 oz of nonfat milk with 2 scoops of powder to get 52 grams of protein. The 14 oz of Oh Yea gave me only 32 grams of protein. It is hard to fit all of the shake in my stomach during the course of a day, so I need the most dense protein that I can get. I also need to add some unflavored protein to get to my goal of 65-70 grams.

Good luck on your goals.

I still haven't tasted the drinks. I've never even seen them in a store. I love the bars though. They are very yummy.

I saw that show on TV where they were saying Protein drinks have traces of metal in them. They said they pretty much all do, as well as some foods.

If you are looking for a great tasting Protein supplement, check out PrescriptFit products. The website www.drdiet.com has information on the products as well as a video testimonial from a bariatric surgeon. It can be used pre and post op. The supplements use egg protein which is a much higher quality protein than whey or soy and it doesn't have an aftertaste. You can order online or buy directly from clinics that distribute the products.

I got an OH Yeah shake at the hospital yesterday. It was by far the best chocolate shake I have tried and believe me I have tried quite a few. It was really good and had no Protein taste and no bitter after taste. I got it at GNC and they also have the bars, Curious.

      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.
