What are some good Protein Shots?

My husband has been researching the same thing for me today. He found one that is sugar free and only 1 carb. It has 35 grams of Protein in a 3 oz 'shot'.

He found it on Walgreens.com but it's only available for purchase locally. It's call Six Star Pro Nutrition Elite Series Instant liquid Protein Shot 35. We just now ran to the only local 24-hour Walgreens that carries it and bought the three they had on the shelf (flavor of berry Blast). Mine are chilling now so I can't yet say how good they are, but I'm hoping they help supplement the shakes, which are starting to nauseate me.

Details on these particular Protein Shots are here:

Good luck!

Protein Shots are not a good choice of Protein because they are made from collagen protein which is not easily absorbed. If you do a search on this topic, there's a lot of posts about why collagen is not good protein.

Thanks for the update. I just tried a sip of tonight's purchases and it started my recently settled stomach churning again.

Next step: Crystal Light and unflavored Protein powder.

I have fruit punch and pink lemonade. I'm not so crazy about anything with sweeteners or that uses chemicals, so that has me struggling a bit right now. But the pink lemonade is something I've had before and loved so I'm hoping for success with it.

      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.
