So, anyone have suggestions or tips for full liquid diet that is not sweet, but still has lots of Protein? I can tell that I'm going to sick of sweet shakes pretty fast. At least I see a positive in that, I won't want anything sweet!

Unjury makes a chicken stock flavored Protein. You can also use unflavored Proteins. They are not flavorless, but do not have added flavor, and IMO aren't nearly as sweet. You could mix it with any non-sweet drink you like. You can also take something like protein nectar and make it not sweet. My dad (he has a lapband) mixes Syntrax Roadside Lemonade with iced tea to make a Protein Drink similar to an Arnold Palmer.

Oh! That is an excellent idea. I have some of the Roadside Lemonade at home. I'll for sure try that. :)

I am wondering about mixing unflavored Protein Powder with a low sodium v8, or the like. I've not tried it, but it seems like getting your veggies with your Protein would be a good idea.

Those are good questions. I've never actually had a V8, but if its an option I'm totally up for trying it.

I learned what happens when you mix Bariatric Advantage's chicken Soup in Water that is too hot. :(

I've purchased a food thermometer and will try again.

Oh, had I thought of it I would've warned against that. I don't know of any powdered Proteins that can be mixed into something that's hot. They all get gloopy.

You can put unflavored Protein into V8. I bought the small (airplane sized) cans of V8 and would mix in some unflavored powder when I was cleared for acidics.

Can you mix Protein Powder in cold liquid and then warm up?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
