Have you tried the Atkins ones? I have found that I am a bit lactose intolerant now, so they don't treat me well, but they are quite tasty. Available at BJ's by the case in chocolate, forget about the vanilla though, if you can find them, the Mocha is good too. I was ordering them from Amazon. Even the fruit juice Shots arn't awful if you cut them with Crystal Light.

The nectar unflavored is OK, and I've been recently using the GNC unflavored and mix it with my Decaf, a little milk and sweetener. Still not great but tolerable. I couldn't handle any of the sweet Protein mixes for long.

I am 6 weeks out and the only kind of Protein Drink I have been able to drink is the EAS brand. I mixed them with milk at first because they were too sweet. Plus it gave me xtra Protein too.

Isoflex from Super Supplements; 1 gram of carbs. Seriously WAY better and less sweet than any other shake I've tried. I like the choc/peanut butter flavor. Not too strong, creamy...blends well and no gag reflex

Thanks y'all. I will try some of the suggestions. I think I will b on them for a while. I can't c myself ever eating 70 grams of Protein in food. I can't even get 70 in shakes in a day. Tomorrow I am getting a bigger variety to choose from. Thanks

Go to the food forum and order some samples. That way you can try a lot of things. A lot of people do like the nectar products. You can get samples of all of their flavors in a variety pack for not much money.

      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.
