What Meal Replacement shakes did you use before surgery? I'm not required to do any pre-op diet but I'd like to try the shakes and see if I could loose a lil weight before surgery. Thanks!!

I use Unjury 'cause my NUT suggested them. Can only buy on the web, but you get the shipment fast (I get next day with regular shipping). I like the taste, but some don't!

First off, I must clarify, we do not use meal replacement shakes, we use Protein Shakes or Protein supplements. Meal Replacements shakes more often then not are much higher calorie than we should be using.

Now that I got that off my chest, I use Unjury, Syntrax Nectar, Premier Protein, & hemp protein.

Lol...you still replace a meal with the shake...henceforth "meal replacement"

I do understand your logic, however there are "meal replacement" shakes & "protein" shake for example,

Unjuty & nectar are Protein Shakes, they deliver 20g of Protein with 100calories

Slimfast. Boost, Carnation, Ensure are meal replacement shakes. With these you will typically be consuming 400 calories to get the same 20 calories, but do have a mor complex nutritional profile.

Also, they are marketed differently. One is a health & fitness supplement(protein) the other is a diet product. If you go to Walmart & ask to see the meal replacement shakes, you will not see Protein Drinks, as they are marketed on different aisles.

I use Protizyme and Matrix brand Protein Shakes. Protizyme has great flavors like Peanut Butter cookie, vanilla and chocolate cake, as banana cream pie.

Do you buy directly from them? Just curious to see who sends them out that quickly.

I buy Premier Protein shakes at costco, they are ready to drink. They can be costly but I think it's well worth it. They are easy for on the go and are well mixed, no yucky after taste. Each serving is 30 grams of Protein, 160 calories, 1 sugar and 5 carbs. I get 18 shakes for @ $24.00.

Yes, can get Unjury only from their website (I think). They are in Northern Virginia. I am in Delaware, and I get them the next day EVERY time (and I don't pay for rush shipping!). They have a sample pack I believe...
