I posted the thread about the prolab powder, this is what is available at the PX. I just discovered that besides the powder, they also have ready to drink bottles of Myoplex, I think that's how it's spelled. 28g Protein, 4 carbs per serving. I got a four pack for my fridge so that I have something waiting for me when I return. Anybody try this stuff?

Not sure if you are talking about the Myoplex Carb Control or not, but if so, that is what I drink all the time. I travel a lot for business so I stick a 4 pack in my checked luggage and refrigerate them when I get there. That is better than lugging a blender or shaker bottle around with me and having to clean it good in a hotel room. I like them. I sometimes throw a pack of benefiber in with it and shake it up good. They are best really, really cold. So I will put in my thermos bottle with a few ice cubes and drink it.

Texas - I don't know either if they are Myoplex carb control, they come in four packs, are packaged in purple and silver bottles that seem like they are made of the same material that juice boxes are made of. They are about 3-4 inches tall. I'll probably put them in my freezer that doesn't really freeze anything so they'll get super cold. Glad to hear they are good! Are you able to finish one in a single sitting?

Those are the carb control ones. 25g Protein and 150 calories. I am almost 4 weeks out and I don;t seem to have the issues that others do. I can drink like before; mind you, I don't chug, but certainly not sippy, sippy. I drink one most days just to keep my protein up - I still haven't mastered getting all of my protein from food yet. Sometimes I blend up the chocolate one with a piece of frozen banana, pretty tasty.

Yep, I read the label when I got home, they are the carb controls. It's a relief to know that I have a good source of Protein available without having to special order and wait. I don't have access to a blender but I can keep them in the freezer and then use a water bottle with one of those wire shaker balls to get it really blended.

      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.
