I use gold standard 100% whey in French vanilla. Its tasty and there isn't a nasty after taste.

There are lots of posts about this. You can get a bunch of information by searching for "protein shakes" or something similar. The search box is on the right near the top.

Isopure Liquid Protein (40 grams per 20 oz bottle)

New Whey Protein Shots (42 grams per 4 oz vial) best watered down IMO

Shakes:

Body fortress (Walmart) chocolate/vanilla / strawberry

Syntrex nectar (on line) Cookies and cream/ fuzzy navel/ many flavors

Unjury Protein (on line) most popular is the unflavored powder that you can add to Anything!

Ie: turn butternut squash Soup into a protein packed meal. They also carry protein hot cocoa and chicken broth.< /p>

My very favorite Protein Shake is to take 1 cup of fat free double protein milk (by Lucerne/ Safeway grocery store)

Add I scoop of vanilla Protein Powder

5 ice cubes

And anything I'm in the mood for:

pumpkin pie: I always freeze things into ice cube trays so I take 1 cube at a time

1 cube of pumpkin purée

1 tsp SF maple Syrup

Sprinkle cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger

banana NUT:

Omit Ice cubes add 1/2 banana (I freeze in slices)

And a few walnuts

Dash of vanilla or banana extract

Reece's Peanut Butter CUP

1 scoop chocolate protein powder

2 tbsp smooth peanut butter (all natural) I grind my own nut butters

PIÑA COLADA SMOOTHIE:

1 scoop vanilla Pwdr

1/2 cup frozen pineapple

Substitute 1/2 of the milk for coconut milk

Add an umbrella parasol... Go sit out in the sunshine... Soak up the Vitamin D... Enjoy your mini island retreat.

APPLE PIE A LA MODE

1/2 cup stewed apples in cinnamon nutmeg or applesauce add nutmeg (frozen)

The list is endless...

Whatever you're in the mood for you can turn into a protein shake.< /p>

And if it's something savory... Go with unjurys unflavored protein to create that savory dish. You can order a sample pack for $21 from them.

Bon appetite!

I use Protein Shots, I get mine at Walmart. I use fruit punch in a fruit punch crystal lite and it is good. You can use other flavors in different crystal lite just have to try them. I add 32 oz Water instead of 20 like the crystal lite says. Good luck.

I have also put shots in Isopure to make them more drinkable.

Remember to check the type of Protein. Collegen protein is usual in the shots and out body doesn't use that as well as whey protein. Also our body can only process 30 grams at a time so 82 is just going to waste

      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.
