So far, I've really liked Unjury's chicken Soup, strawberry sorbet, and unflavored. Chike Nutrition's chocolate is excellent. (Both brands you can find online.) For ready-made... my absolute favorites have been Atkins Advantage shakes. :) I'm on day 8 of my 2-week pre-op diet, and I have cast my net far and wide to try a lot of the different ones out there in such a short time!

Thanks for asking. Today was my first day of sampling Protein Shakes. I have never been a fan of these drinks but figured i should probably find something that I like. Anywho, i tried Spiru-Tein today and OMG.....couldn't do it. I threw it down the drain and opted for cottage cheese. If anyone knows of a really good vanilla, chocolate or french vanilla Protein Shake, please share.

I really enjoy a Protein shake that i came acorss here at my local health store. It's called 'JEM' it only requires 6-8oz of Water or beverage of your choice and 1 scoop of powder which equals 32 grams ( i get the rest of my Protein from meats and the food i eat considering im 10 weeks out) of protein. I drink the chocolate once per day and once i start working out its recommended to take in two.

Even though I have been told my tasts could change. I am having my sugery on Jan 26th. I have been trying some of the Protein Shakes. So far I like the Pure Protein shakes. I hav etried Chocklot, strawberry, and Vinalla and I like all of them. They have 35 grams of protein, 4 Carbs, and 1 gram of sugar. 160 to 170 calories per 11oz can. I found them at GNC and Trader Joes in Washington state. I was going to buy them on line but shipping made them more expensive than buying them local.

My favorite is "Unjury". They have Protein Powder in flavors such as chocolate, vanilla, strawberry sorbet, chicken Soup, etc. It tastes really good too! To get in Protein when you're in the clear liquid phase I recommend Isopure plus zero carb Protein Drink. They come in 12 oz. bottles, have 40mg protein, and come in flavors such as Alpine Punch, blue raspberry, green melon, etc. You can get Unjury at "unjury.com" and the isopure at GNC.com. My surgery is scheduled for Jan. 23rd. Good Luck!!

I am in love with the Isopure no carb bottled waters. They come in about 12 different fruit flavor and are ready-made. You can get them at GNC or online. They are pricey ($45 for a case

I tried the Isopure and they left a after tast only a slever could love. Dont get me wrong I have some in my fridge and I will drink them after surgery but I am still searching for something without that kind of after tast.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
