So far the only bump I've encountered is that I cannot yet find a single Protein Drink flavor that I like. I've only tried 2 flavors but I've been home from the hospital for just a few hours. they are both nasty. any suggestions???

I like Muscle Milk. Taste like chocolate milk. I haven't really tried any other yet, but I really liked it.

I like powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored. You can make smoothies and shakes instead of just having one flavored Protein mix everyday. For instance, this morning I had a mango strawberry smoothie and this evening I had choc-Peanut Butter banana shake. It's very versatile.

I am still pre op but have been doing alot of research on Protein Drinks because I am a picky eater.. I have looked and ordered stuff from Baratric advantage and from Celebrate baractric I think it is called.. both have great flavors (yet to taste but sound darn good) I also saw a third brand in another post but looking at their site not sure if it is same type stuff. Good luck and I am always willing to check out new sites if anyone knows of any. :)

Have you considered using vanilla and flavoring it yourself? My plan is to use vanilla and use different sugar free Torani syrups to flavor it. I'm still pre op....hope that works.

I went o the Vitamin Shoppe yesterday and bought about 6 different favors of pre-made shakes they have them in the refrigerator section and you an buy one at a time. Also bought samples from unjury and Syntrax nectar. vS carries the big jug of nectar but was afraid to commit to anything 5 lbs or over until I actually tasted it.

Also just found out that Gatorade has Protein drinks...might have to check them out as well!

I FINALLY after much taste testing found one I like! Syntax nectar makes Pink Grapefuit. I mix 1 1/2 scoops in 20 oz. of Water. I find it to be the best yet! And there are a lot of very disgusting ones :(

I like the juice base ones from nectar and LOVE the chicken Soup from Unjury.....They are all about 100 cal low to no carb, no sugar.. Protein is over 21 for Unjury and 34 for Nectar...

      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.
