Pre-Surgery Shakes

[Josh H. 4]

Hello Everyone - My surgery is scheduled for 01/29 and I've started thepre-surgery shakes. 3 a day!!

I was wondering if there was anyone else on the shakes. I'm using the Biatric Advantage brand and originally got Stawberry and chocolate. I found the strawberry to be horribly disgusting. The other flavors is banana, vanilla and Orange Creme. Is there anyone else out there on the shakes and which ones doe you prefer?

I tried the Bariatric Advantage, they are vile! The chocolate was the best of the bad lot.... Try Unjury, they taste so much better. The Chocolate splendor actually tastes like chocolate not chemicals. You can order a few samples and see what you think, but you can only get them online. Good Luck!

I like the all ready made Slimfast shakes. chocolate is my favorite but I like the strawberries and cream and French vanilla as well. They are in 10 oz plastic bottles and Wal-Mart has 2 bonus free bottles in each 4 pack so you get 6 of them for under $5. They have 10 grams of Protein.< /p>

If you need a higher Protein they have a high protein version of Slimfast at Wal-Mart as well. I'm going to use them post op.

Bariatric Fusion is another you can try

Doesn't slim fast have too many carbs and sugar?

I love premier shakes! Pre op I was using GNC powder after I couldn't stand them so went for premier shakes at costco very tasty only comes in vanilla and chocolate. Yummy yummy. Lol oh and congrats on your surgery date!

Slim fast high Protein has 180 calories, 9 grams of fat, 4 carbs, 2 grams sugar, and 20 grams of Protein. The fat is a little higher than I would like, but I still think they are a good choice.

My surgeon gives us a list and Slimfast was on there. We needed 5 shakes a day and I have lost a lb a day so I am happy! I am Clear Liquids today preparing for tomorrows surgery! can't believe I am finally here!

Good luck to all of you going soon. Is anyone going on February 11 to Tijuana? It would be nice to have someone to track with. But not as a competition, just someone who is experiencing the same thing at the same time.

I'm having surgery on the 14th but in Phoenix. I'm looking for buddies too!

Who are you going to see? My paperwork is being submitted tomorrow but if I get denied I am headed to Mexico!! so maybe buddies after all?

I liked the BA Vanilla far more than the chocolate or any other flavor. Honestly, they're not bad if you add fruit and sweeten them up a bit. They're tolerable, which is really all they need to be pre-surgery.

I'm not allowed to add anything to my Protein pre-op shakes. Do you think I can live with the vanilla? I am not a big fan of chocolate.< /p>
