So last night when I got home I had my Protien shake for dinner and a little bit of beef broth....I was instantly Nauseated and puked every bit of it up. Now this morning just the thought of drinking another protien shake makes me sick the only thing I have had all day is water!! I am hoping I get over this soon I still have over a week left. =(

My tummy didn't like the Protein Shakes during my pre-op diet either, AT ALL! They did not go down easily. Do you have to drink a certain kind, or are you free to choose the kind you like? I have finally found a kind that tastes good to me - Pure Protein. You can get powders and cans of it to drink. The chocolate is really good. I got it at HyVee and also at a whole foods store. I'm sorry it's going rough for you - hang in there, it will get better!

Thankful mine go down fine but I definitely like some better than others. I drink nectar chocolate Truffle with milk twice a day and then make Nectar Twisted cherry with half Water half diet V8 Splash twice a day. I have a whole canister of the Nectar Cappuccino on top my fridge that I can't think what to do with it. I have also put Nectar unflavored in with my regular v8 and it doesn't mix great with that.

I HATE Protein drinks!! The smell and taste about take me down.

There are however 2 that I can handle and are soooo good. You might want to give them a try.

GNC has a Wheybolic Extreme 60 chocolate that is AMAZING!! it tastes just like chocolate milk if you mix it with Silk Chocolate LIte. And has a lot of Protein to boot!!

Also Pure Protein makes a ready to drink strawberry Cream in a can that is awesome!!! You can find it at Vitamin Shoppe.

The GNC one is on sale right now for $14.99/bag which is CHEAP. They also have single serve trial packs and the cans of pure protein are like $2 each. Try them!!

Good luck!

kelly :D

      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.
