Premiere Protein is definitely my fave... you can buy it at costco or Sam's in an 18 pack for about $24, so it comes out to only a little more than a dollar per shake. They are pre-made which makes it super convenient. They come in chocolate and vanilla and I've heard rumors that costco is supposed to start carrying them in Strawberries and Cream!

My favorite brands of powders are Optimum Nutrition 100% whey Gold Standard, Syntrax Nectar, Syntrax Matrix, Unjury, and Chike. The first three you can buy at netrition.com (they do ship internationally) or nashuanutrition.com (also ships internationally, plus they sell samples - I recommend buying a couple of samples of lots of different flavors you might like - don't commit to buying a big tub of something until you have tasted it after surgery!).

Nashua Nutrition also sells the Chike and BSN Lean Dessert brands, both of which I think are great.

I also really like Unjury, particularly the chocolate Splendor and chicken Soup flavors. The chicken soup is a really nice change from all the sweet flavors. You can buy a starter pack from them:

      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.
