is Muscle Milk okay for the pre-op and post-op diets? I start my pre-op diet on October 30th and I was curious to see if these are okay?

Way too expensive for me. Some of them now have less cals, so I'm sure they would be ok

Well the Muscle Milk Lights are only 110 calories and the 4 pack is only 5.38 at wal-mart. Fairly cheap considering the other ones I have seen. Thanks for the replies!

Before surgery I bought a bunch of different type of Protein drinks/shakes to try out. I personally can't stand the taste of any of the Muscle Milks. To me there's a funny after taste I can't get past. My dr. had us drink the Bariatric Advantage shakes for preop and those are good and you can blend them with fruit or Peanut Butter. Now post op I drink the Premier Protein drinks in chocolate flavor. It's 11 oz and has 30 grams of protein, 160 calories and 5 carbs. costco carries it in chocolate or vanilla flavor.

Funny how people's tastes are so different! I use and enjoy the muscle milks and find the costco premier shakes not to my liking.

      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.
