purplegerber 29 Posted November 4, 2013 Hi I am new to this world... I have just jumped my last hoop and visited with the nutritionist. So, I was given two options for my pre-op diet. Here is my question though.. All the shakes that are listed as Meal Replacements have suralose (splenda) or aspertame. I get nasty Migraines from both, I like the dreamsicle by Jay Robb, but that is just a Protein Shake. Does anyone know of any Meal Replacement shakes that are made with stevia instead of splenda?

purplegerber 29 Posted January 16, 2014 I tried googling. I didn't find anything, which is why I was hoping someone who had the surgery may have more experience finding a drink. What a nice warm welcome to this forum... thanks.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs B 4 Posted January 17, 2014 GNC makes a whey Protein Powder that has stevia in it, not bad tasting. Only comes in vanilla and chocolate but it has 25 g of Protein. And Quest bars are made with stevia. 1 purplegerber reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purplegerber 29 Posted January 17, 2014 Thanks Mrs. B. Since I wrote the original post here is what i have found as far as Stevia Protein. Jay Robb Nature's Plus Ultra Energy Shake- 25 g of progein 4 grms Fiber, 8 grms Carbs ( I love the chocolate), but add more milk then they list or else it is too sweet. I found Power crunch bar are sweetened with stevia- but they don't have the best stats. I have also tried Garden of Life Raw Protein- I had to put more stevia extract in it because it was a little bit lacking and took some effort swallowing down. VEGA One- I would skip this one though- it did something aweful to my stomach, and has been recalled in some places. Vega energy- Still haven't tried this one. Designer Whey- Just bought it havent' tried it yet. also have found Tera's Whey Protein. Just bought it havent' tried it yet Biochem Whey- Just bought it havent' tried it yet Still haven't found one I LOVE love.. but some are more palatable then others Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bandista 7,466 Posted February 4, 2014 I used Thorne Mediclear and I did the capsules, too. The product my surgeon's office recommended was just absurd -- I'd never put that crap in my body. I put the nutritionist through some extra work but it was worth it. I wanted a true liver cleanse for my pre-op, not artificial sweeteners or dairy, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scubachick 58 Posted February 4, 2014 I love chocolate shakeology by Beachbody (Insanity, P90x, T-25, et) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IncredibleShrinkingViolet 22 Posted February 4, 2014 How about getting some without any sweetener and adding your Stevia when you make the up? I was thinking about doing something like that for at least part of the liquid diet. Found some good prices on Swanson's website. They have sections for non-GMO, too.
