I'm sure it tastes great, but... it's got 44gms of sugar in a 12 oz serving along with 48gms of carbs. My doctor says "no no no" to Protein Drinks with more than 3gms of sugar and 3gms of carbs. This is the kind of Protein Drink meant for hard core athletes who would burn off the sugar and carbs in a normal workout, not so much for us trying to lose pounds, we've got to stay away from these.

my NUT said this is acceptable in the first few weeks when we are not having any other food intake. This would be a once a day type thing of course.

Wow... must be nice!! I want to have your NUT! My NUT says no food of any kind, only liquids and Protein drinks that fall into the "less than 3gms" rule for two weeks, then pureed foods and protein drinks the third and fourth week and those pureed foods must be high protein foods; pureed meat, Beans, eggs. I have noticed on here that every Dr./NUT has a different recommendation. A girl at work had the same surgery and her Dr/NUT only recommended 50 to 70gms of protein a day ,while mine says 90 to 100 gms. We were about the same weight and height so I'm trying to figure out why the big difference in our numbers.

Whatever your NUT recommends just go with it. I wish you the best of luck in this crazy journey we're on!

My regime is a lot like carolina girl's with a limit on carbs of 15 grams per drink. Goal is 70 Protein per day. One thing I am aware of is higher carbs will trigger more hunger; so be careful of the high carb drinks.< /p>

My doctor says keep it under 10 grams sugar. There is NO WAY that I would drink something with 40 grams of sugar! Be careful girl, we can get dumping syndrome too. That large amount of sugar in a semi-starvation state can cause some serious issues...be careful!

      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.
