Premier Protein - chocolate. Love them. I get them at Sam's club or Costo. I use to like the vanilla but it's very sweet. Sometimes I do 1/2 and 1/2. The best part is they are 30 grams of Protein and 11 oz of Fluid :)

I am doing my pre-op diet and found some shakes that I love, I just hope and pray that I'll still like them after surgery.

Muscle Milk Pro Series 40g Protein for 14 oz and I love the chocolate Mint

Oh Yeah! 32 g protein for 14 oz, banana creme is the best!!

These aren't cheap, like almost $3 a bottle, but you can order them from Amazon.com in a case of 12.

I liked the Premier Protein, but then I got a case that had to be returned, as it got real thick and chunky... turned me off to that brand.

Just remember the cost of convenience is expensive. If you buy a shaker bottle and mix your Protein with milk or Water depending on the flavor you get the protein and a cost savings that believe me will add up in the long run and we are all in this for the long run right?

Chunky ??? I drink premiere every day never had a chunky one . U can thin it with 2% milk . I add strawberry , caramel or coconut flavoring to the vanilla ones . I love the chocolate but the vanilla is really sweet for my taste.

I'm with you. Post surgery I'm still not a big Breakfast eater, so I like to have a stash of ready made Protein Drinks ready to go to drink in the car in the morning. At now 6 weeks out, I'm growing tired of the vanilla premiere Protein i prefer. Now I take a sip to make room in the container and add a few splashes of sugar-free Torani Syrup to make different flavors. The cherry was delish! The premiere protein is 160 calories and 30 grams of protein. I liked the Isopure low-carb pre-made pre-surgery, but now I think it has a funky after taste and its only 17 grams of protein. Many people don't realize they are adding a lot of extra calories and carbs when they make their powered Protein Shakes in the blender with fruit, Milk and misc. ingredients. Before you know it, it could end up being a 500 calorie drink!

      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.
