I haven't gotten a shaker yet and I am still experimenting with different Protein powders but so far, 2 were vile, 1 was good but banana flavored so not one I woud drink daily, 2 were ok but won't order full sizes of them. Been making in the blender with unsweetened almond milk and ice and the consistency is either 50% froth or in the case of chike it's the texture of cake batter and is gooey! So unless I find a really good powder that mixes nice, I will have to go to RTD Protein drinks.

I jus bought the muscle milk RTD and the EAS one too at target today so hopefully one of these is right for me. Thanks again

I like the taste of EAS too. I dont really "enjoy" drinking any Protein Shakes period (i drank them for way too long even before vsg), but when I really need to have one i usually grab the Premier Protein RTD from costco. It has the most Protein, so I feel like I am getting the most bang for my buck!

I have found that if I stick the shake in the fridge for thirty minutes, the froth/foam goes away and it's a lot easier to drink.

For RTD, I really like Muscle Milk Light Peach Mango but thought their chocolate flavor was horrific. Everyone has such different tastes! I also like the Atkins Advantage shakes but wouldn't drink them too often as they are kinda low on Protein in exchange for calories. I have ordered some of the Premier shakes but they won't come in for another few days. I'm looking forward to trying them.

Someone was posting about another company....About Time

They have awesome shakes and are lactose free and gluten free. The have the shake and go bottles. You add your choice of liquid to them shake it up and drink. They actually taste great. But you have to order them I don't know of where you can buy them. They do have sample packs to try.

Ok, I tried the Premier shakes and I cannot stomach them. Oy. The taste and the aftertaste made me want to gag. Still looking for a Protein Drink I can stomach. Crossing that one off the list.

I do the muscle milk RTD and Isopure RTD. As a matter of fact I had my first alcohol drink with 1oz vodka and 10 oz Isopure as the chaser....my tolerance for alcohol is awful....but I got 20 gms of Protein in while sipping!

      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.
