I was on Bariatric Advantage for about 3 weeks total, they aren't too bad. I've also tried Muscle Milk Light which isn't bad and the Kirkland shakes from costco.< /p>

MY FAVORITE - Best bang for your high Protein, low cal option is PREMIER ready to drink shakes. I get a case of 12 from Sams Club for about 18 dollars.

I LOVED the Cytosport RTD "whey isolate" drinks. They are a clear liquid, 32g of Protein in 16 oz with little else in it. It's a black wrapped clear bottle with white writing. I like tropical and tangerine. I swear they should pay me for always saying this. But those drinks are really good. It's 130 calories.

I couldn't tolerate Protein Shakes right after surgery, either. I'm almost 3 months out now and I can drink them again, YEA! I was trying to choke down those awful Protein Shots and they are ghastly! I usually use Premier (Costco, 30 gr. protein) and I've heard that the Muscle Milk is good, too.

      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.
