Hello, my sistahs. Lord willing I will have my sleeve on September 23rd. Looking now for the best Protein Shakes that have over 30 grams of Protein and is tolerably tasteful. The shots are an option but I guess I will have to try them for myself. I am already taking Biotin because I too worry about Hair loss. AND, I may purchase me some hair.< /p>

I get them from Walmart. I like the watermelon flavor one. They are 3.5 oz and 42 grams of Protein. Right now drinking one of those and a Protein Shake is the only way I can get my numbers in.

What brand? I need to start stocking up. Surgery is 7 1/2 weeks away.

My advice to you is do not stock up on any Protein Shakes because after surgery your taste buds may change. That happen to a lot of people. Including me. I threw out so many shakes mixes because I couldn't drink them. I'm 2 weeks post op and I can drink GNC and weight watches high Protein I still struggle but I make my self drink them.

I've tried the grape and watermelon. They're very sweet, and I'm not sleeved yet. They're tolerable watered down, but it still has an aftertaste. Also, my nut said that only 20% of the New Whey's 42g of protein is whey protein isolate (the protein we need). She said there's something similar called Yes Whey that's all whey protein isolate and it can be purchased at GNC. I haven't tried this yet. I enjoy the premiere shakes. They have 30g. Hope I continue to enjoy after I'm sleeved.

      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.
