I have tried so many different protien shakes the last three weeks. Monday I will be 4 weeks post op. I have been getting very sick when I drink a shake. After a few sips I get nauseated, and usually end of vomiting. I'm not sure how to get my 60 grams in daily wo a couple shakes. But I'm sick of feeling sick. I do fine w other liquids and when I eat my yogurt or other soft foods. Any suggestions? I'm calling my dr. On Monday.

Try a different Protein Powder. I use Jay Robb Unflavored Egg Protein in crystal light, Gatorade, etc and it works great and has no taste.

Isopure liquid. So much better than the powdered Protein and a lot more convenient. I like the alpine punch the best. Comes in 20 oz bottles which have 40 grams protein. These are 2 serving bottles. I wish I had found these early on. I hated the protein powders. I tried many of them and wasted my money. Vitamin Shoppe has these.

That's funny, the Isopure Alpine Punch tasted like cough Syrup to me. I guess it's all just trial & error until we find one we like. :)

I couldn't do the Isopure shakes. They just didn't taste good at all!!!! I use the pure Protein vanilla (chocolate is ok but I prefer vanilla) but I make them really cold. I put them in the freezer for just a little bit!!! My other favorite is the proti diet!! They are like juice to me! Pink lemonade is one of my faves!! But they have all kinds of flavors. I also make ice pops out of them as well. Health wise is another favorite of mine. Yummy hot cocoa!!! And chicken soup! I did a medical weight loss a couple of years ago and discovered these products! I'm very glad I did!! And once I'm allowed to have solids again health wise has fantastic protein bars!! strawberry cheesecake, Peanut Butter and jelly, and peanut butter (tastes like a reeses cup!!) yummy yummy!!!!

      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.
