I just had the same issue today with the bariatric advantaage Protein. The banana kind ran right thru me! I'm also pe-op, but I'm just trying to get to a place where I can go a whole day on a liquid diet. I figured if i find a brand i really like, it would be easier. So far no such luck...

What I'm drinking tastes pretty good. Maybe it's the chocolate. I'm going to try a different flavor. Other than the shakes, the only other things I'm having is coffee/tea, and veggies. I'm not hungry. I'm having surgery this Monday and I can't wait.!!

I like the nectar Protein drink mix. I just finished a container of the strawberry-kiwi flavor. It was very good. Now I am trying the caribbean cooler flavor. The first taste of it was terrible, but then I added some crushed ice and now I like it. I haven't found anything that gives me the runs or upsets my stomach.

I just ordered and received 3.2 oz vial of 50 g Protein. I haven't tried it yet, I got it for when we are traveling and it seemed easier that mixing a drink. It comes in different flavors. The name of it is Profect protein supplement. 0 cholesterol and 0 sugar. Has anyone tried this yet?

I like the nectar pretty well too, the caribbean cooler did need ice, or I thought it might be good in some crystal lite. I can't drink the vial stuff, I'm a vegetarian and usually they contain non dairy animal products.

Also, the "Protein Drunks" title gave me a chuckle...biggrin.gif

I like the Premeir brand. It is 11oz and 30g of Protein, 1 g of sugar. Other Protein Drinks made me have diarrhea like you mentioned. I found out that I can't handle any products with soy in them. It's very hard to find a Protein Drink or bar with no soy and that tastes good! Good luck!

      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.
