The chocolate mixed with cold coffee and ice...kind of like a frappucino.

I would brew the coffee the night before and put in the fridge.

If you have any extracts, you can try altering the flavor some.

I would add less than a cap full of mint to make it to taste like mint chocolate.

You can add 2 tsp of sugar free Jello or pudding mix to it to alter the taste. I've had chocolate with banana cream pudding; vanilla with orange jello; vanilla with lemon pudding; chocolate with raspberry jello. They were all pretty good...at least good enough. Gotta have some variety when you drink them daily.

If you don't have any coffee you can add a small spoon of instant coffee with ice and fat free milk.

Try adding 1tbsp of instant coffee, 8oz of skim milk, 1tbsp of Peanut Butter and 1 scoop of Unjury - it is fabulous and really filling!

I always stuck with Vanilla or unflavored Protein Powder because it was easier to flavor. that being said I used a lot of MIO and some of the 4c drink mixes.

I use sugar free syrups to help favor them( the kind in the coffee section) . I am at the point i dislike any Protein Drinks after 11 days of them :( But I try to make them palatable. It is hard when you have to drink them daily. Hang in there :)

I haven't tried the Unjury yet - just ordered some. But I really like the Chike packets and the Premier Protein (already prepared and sold at costco and probably other places) is pretty good. The chocolate Premier tastes better.

Mixed up the Chike in a shaker bottle while traveling last week and must admit I was pretty impressed with the taste!

I think ill break up the unflavored scoops to 2 seperate drinks cause a scoop in one drink is too nasty i am like desperately trying to hold down each gulp. Second nastiest thing ive ever had.

      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.
