Hi Deaddemmama, where do you get that Protein at? I'd like to try that. I'm sick of the powder and need something new! Thank you!

I have found something fantastic to use. The Labrada nutritional lean body ready to drink.

17oz with 40gm of Protein - 0 sugar - low carb.

strawberry, banana, chocolate, vanilla are the one I get.

I drink two a day and get in 80gms.

I buy them on Amazon. For a 12pk it's around $35 and no s&h. I but three a month and rotate flavors.

I will occasionally buy EAS or Atkins.

I'm so sick of the powders.

I'm six months post-op and from 252 to 192 and just bought a pair of size 17/18 Jeans.

But still diabetic.

I'm loving the unflavored Unjury with icy cold Vitamin water....I mix and put in freezers until foam disappears then fill to the top with diet v8 splash!

I need to try this stuff I here a lot about it. The fact you body only absorbs 20-30 gram of Protein per sitting I try to break it up so I'm not wasting it buy drinking in my shakes. So Maybe this can go in my everyday crystal light...

I primarily use body fortress or premier (my fave).

I will only do whey isolate or concentrate forms. collagen (protein shots) are a huge waste of money.

Be carefully Protein Shakes that have high carbs. They can slow Down your weight loss. Star far away from MLMs like shakeology, body by vi /Visalus, Arbonne. Don't line other people's pocketbooks.

I've been a Isopure fan since surgery. My new is promasil as the sodium is lower than Isopure

I haven't seen my Nut yet so maybe this will be cover, but................

I have seen no one mention Medifast. I have about two weeks left of my supply from my last failed diet. Is it useable or is there something wrong with it? I figured I could use it up during the liquid phase.

      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.
