I don't eat veggies that often, so am not the best to readily answer that question. Essentially, I get my nutrients from supplements including a superfood which has 75 different powered fruits and veggies in it. That being said, I did enjoy some green bean casserole over thanksgiving.

LOL! I hear you where do you get the superfood from? Like a GNC?

I like the Protein bars made by Quest. I get them at GNC or order from Quest directly. High in Protein and low in carbs. They are very dense and filling. I tried the Protein Bars from Celebrate and didn't care for them at all - while high protein/low carb, they are made with what tastes like small bits of rice krispies and some type of gooey material so the texture is grainy and they aren't very filling. Not to mention I don't like the taste.

As far as raw veggies, my surgery was on 9/10/12 and I've been eating raw veggies for a couple of weeks - no problems at all.

Those wondering about salads - I would think that all that lettace would be filling perhaps but with very little nutritional value - unless it's made with spinach. Walden Farms makes several salad dressings/sauces that are 0 calories/0 carbs - I like some on my veggies to change up the flavor sometimes.

That sounds good, as far as salad I would only do the spinach etc... NO ICEBERG!

The Think thin bars that I had were not zero carb...they were lower carb than most but not low carb or low sugars. Taste was ok, but ya know...

Cliff bars are loaded with sugars. Good if you are climbing up a mountain, but not so good as a daily meal.

So' date=' I was in Walmart and decided to just look at the Protein foods section in the pharmacy department. I knew they sold Protein Bars, but I had never tried any (I used to only shop in the candy bar section). I saw a very large variety of bars, some with as much as 20 grams of Protein per bar and low carbs! I was just wondering if these can be used in place of shakes later on? I sure could see myself enjoying a "caramel nut bar" vs. another shake.[/quote']

Good question.. I was there yesterday also and picked up a few. I have been a tough time getting the protein in. I had the Peanut Butter and chocolate one. It was very good. Im only 2 weeks post ~ op. On soft foods. Lost only 7 lbs. Not so thrilled about that..

Good luck to you..

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
