I use syntax nectar premier shakes.

Like fish, chicken

Occasional red meat

fruit

Yogurt

Tea coffee Water

Don't like

Sweets

bread

Pasta

Cutting out slider foods

popcorn

My biggest mistake is when I was cleared to eat all foods I did and didn't understand the importance of Protein dense foods. Which my weight to me. Was slower.

Good luck

When I got my lapband the nutritionist I saw suggested dairy to help with skin so that's an easy way for me to remember

Hello Sisters

I gave tried that Protein shot fruit punch~ omg it was horrible. I felt sick the rest on the morning. I only drank half of it. I prefer Chike! it comes in various flavors~ Very vanilla, strawberry Burst and banana Magic each contain 28 grams of protein. I mix it with 8oz. of skim milk shake it up, sometimes I place it in the freezer to make it colder. It's almost like a thin malt.

I tried the grape one and I found it to be tolerable. I am glad to have them because getting down 70 grams of Protein is still hard for me and my surgery date wad 6.10.13.

      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.
