I'm only one week post-op and am having trouble getting in my Protein, mostly because I don't like the Protein shake I bought from my surgeons office... Wanted to see what you all have found... Are there any DELICIOUS Protein shakes out there????

Help!

I bought some premium Protein Shakes at costco they have chocolate and vanilla. The chocolate ones aren't bad and they have 30g of Protein, My dr's office suggests the Isopure non flavored powder protein also but i haven't tried it.

I found that the shakes you make yourself with the powder are much better that ones ready to drink. I have tried so many diffrent ones, but am now using the whey Protein Powder from GNC and I like it very much.

I am a big fan of the GNC AMP Wheybolic Extreme 60 chocolate - it's the best tasting Protein Drink I've found using just Water. Add milk and it's amazing!

I've also found that I don't like ANY of the vanilla-flavored Protein Shakes, no matter the brand.

Also, the Syntrax nectar are really good. I'm a fan of the Roadside Lemonade, caribbean cooler, and Fuzzy Navel flavors.

Unjury chicken broth, plain (I mix with milk for my cereal) you can not taste it, and the strawberry sorbet is great in Water or lemonade. I had a hard time with my Protein Shakes (loved pre-op) no matter how watery they were they were still to heavy for my stomach. But, the Strawberry Sorbet isn't "heavy" for me. I wish I would have had these when I got out of the hospital, I would have made my Protein intake for sure!

      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.
