Since I now have my tentative date, I decided it's time I start doing some preparing for the pre-op diet after the surgery. I know it's a good idea to find out which Protein shakes/powders I like BEFORE I have to use them. That way I won't be trying different kinds at the last minute. A friend of mine is having her surgery in March and told me that she tried some of powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury powders. I went on their website and ordered their sampler. It came the day after I ordered it! It includes two packets of each of their flavors, a plastic container and a thermometer to measure the temperature of the Water (can't heat it higher than 140 degrees or the power clumps). So far I've only tried one. The chicken Soup flavor. Now, it's certainly not my mom's homemade chicken soup, but it was pretty ok. There was no grainy taste or clumps (after I stirred it for awhile). It has 21 grams of protein, I believe. The package gets disolved in 8 oz. of water. Since I know I'll have trouble getting down a lot of liquids after surgery, I'm excited that this is only 8 oz.

I'll let everybody know what the other ones taste like as soon as I've tried them.

Oh! I don't think I've seen this before. I'm going to have to investigate their shakes! What is your favorite flavor?

I received my unjury sample pack this afternoon. Very candidly, I tried one flavor (Strawberry) and had to dispose of it. I'm sticking to my Atkins shakes for Protein. I realize I am in the minority, as many people love Unjury. The first person that sends me $7.00 (PayPal) to cover postage and their shipping address gets the entire package, minus one drink. I will be sending only the Unjury packages, excluding the thermometer and travel cup.

Best of luck to all.

      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.
