Hi!! it's gonna take a while before you find one you like! I can't even tell you how much money I have wasted on shakes :( People will write how amazing the taste was, and I will run and buy it just to gag on it!! So far my top three: Carnation instant Breakfast, Atkins, and Oh Yeah.

Hope you can find one you like :)

I hate the powder protein! I bought a large bag at Sam's and thought it would be cheaper than the ready made ones. Right after surgery it made me gag each time then when I even thought about it I gaged I didn't want to wate it so I forced myself until one day I just couldn't so I went back to Sam's and bought the Premire and have been drinking it ever since. It really has a good taste and i never gaged once I never like milk shake or chocolate milk so I new this would be a challenge but the premier has made it easier to tollerate.

Thank you both!!! I definetly see it will be a matter of trial and error. For my pre-op I did the EAS and the Atkins shakes I did find one new one called Designer whey. But also everything I have is chocolate and vanilla I need flavor I start full liquids and purée tomorrow

Pure Protein banana shake, chocolate and Cookies and Creme. I bought them at Vitamin World. They are more expensive than your average shake but much better in taste and 40 grams of protein 1 carb.

I am a very picky eater and had a horrible time finding a Protein shake I could get down. My very very favorite is Banana from CHIKE. http://www.chikenutrition.com/ has 28grams of Protein. Chike chocolate and Orange Cream aren't bad either. I can also stomach the chocolate from Bariatric Advantage and it has 27 grams a protein.

I will have to try some of the shakes mentioned above. I wish you luck on your new journey!!! :)

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
