It's hard to recommend because what one person loves another person hates. You haven't said what it is you've been trying that you don't like. I prefer the pre-made drinks over the powders. The Atkins and the EAS are my favourites and can be bought at Walmart.< /p>

Try Syntrax Nectar Sweets, you can get them at Vitamin Shoppe for somewhere between $30 to $40, my favorite is double stuffed cookie and chocolate truffle, you can also buy samples there to.

How far along are you? I eat a lot of deli meats to help me meet my daily Protein goals... I drink 1 premiere Protein shake a day. Once I am a few weeks out I dont think I will be drinking these shakes anymore. I figure once I can incorporate chicken breast and fish fillets to my diet I should have no issues meeting my daily Protein goals.

good luck

Try adding a tablespoon of sf-ff Jello pudding or Gelatin powder to it. The cheesecake and white chocolate favors in Costco's whey Protein powder is what I use. The orange Jello in vanilla shake makes it taste like a 50/50 ice cream bar. strawberry Jello with a couple frozen strawberries in the vanilla shake is great.

It will add ~10-15 cal per shake, but worth it if it makes it palatable.

Good luck.

I am a noob at this stuff but have done my research. Get back to basics and drop your carbs to under 20g per day. For me I love seafood and meat so staying on my current diet of 6-800cal, 80+protein and less than 20g carbs per day is easy.

Think deli meats, pork center loins, lean beef, fish fillets and other sea foods. You would be surprised how fast your Protein adds up if you only eat these types of food.

      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.
