I can't find the post now but someone was just talking about buying cocotien for their Protein intake. Has anyone tried this? Does it taste like Isopure (because BLEH!!!!)? Had never heard of it til now and just curious what others experience was.

Yes, soccermomma73 I bought three bottles and got one free yesterday at my local GNC store. Actually it is cocotein. 16 oz of Fluid, 20 gms protein, 100 calories. Coconut Water with aspertame (sp), it was a little sweet to start, but the flavor is great if you like Coconut. Like it well enought from just 1 bottle I went out to GNC and ordered a case. Now crossing my fingers that my taste buds don't totally turn off to anything sweet. And no I didn't taste the isopure. Didn't even realize it was there, like my unflavored Unjury. Which I can also tolerate, but this was much better. Also see if you can find a post for M.A. Cruz he posted a web site and that is how I found it. Think it is under unflavored protein.

Sorry it doesn't contain aspertaine (sp) but sucralose.

Suddenly humming 'if you like piña coladas...' Thanks a bunch for that! :D. Not overwhelmingly protein-y tasting?

No it's not at all. I hate Protein shakes and Protein Bars. I can easily get one of these down. I couldn't stomach even the smell of the other isopures. They sold cases and individual bottles at GNC. Even my husband said it was good and he won't even drink a diet pop.

      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.
