I go for my surgery om 8/6 and I'm trying to find Protein Shakes that have a good taste also I need idea's on good Protein recipes. I have to start my pre-op diet in another week I need help I'm so clueless.

I would start with some samples; a lot nutrition stores will have samples. My tastes changed dramatically after surgery so I wouldn't stock up too much.

My favorite shake today is Ungery chocolate, PB2 and almond milk.

You're date will come up quickly! I loved the Atkins line of shakes (especially the dark chocolate royale and cafe caramel). Those can be found at Walmart for less than $6.00 for a case if 4. They have 15g of protein. I also loved loved loved GNC's ready to drink Go Lean shakes. If you have a gold card, they're about $10 for a case of 4, but they have 25g of protein and taste great! The only thing is my NUT told me not to use these as post op protein shakes because the body doesn't absorb the most from them. But they really helped me during my pre op process. Eating better and using those shakes yielded me a 25lb loss before surgery. Hope this helps.

My favorite is muscle milk light. I get it by the case from costco, but you can get it at Walmart. I also like the chocolate Premier Protein shakes, but they get thicker over storage time.

Thanks for your suggestions, where can I find PB2 cause that recipes sounds good.

Also I was given a list of shakes to use so I have to go by that im assuming, I ordered some samples from Bariatric Advantage but they're so expensive trying to find a shake that is less expensive and in liquid form for when I go back to work. Do any body make their shake for the day or do you make them as you go?

I was using premier ready to use Protein Shakes in vanilla

They can have a funny "minty" after taste to them tho but they ARE convenient

So now I'm using a powder I got at costco

"MTX" in Cookies and cream 25g of Protein per scoop

And I'm not kidding when I tell you it is DELICIOUS

Also you can find PB2 on Amazon

Target sells it. Peanut Butter aisle then look up to the top shelf. Should be there

I love the GNC lean 25 Protein Powder and with that I add half a banana, PB2 (love this stuff) and benefiber, ice and Water. And I LoVe this stuff. I love it to so much that I even have it for dinner instead of food. For some reason Protein Shakes do it for me and regular foods don't. Hope this works for you too!

I have heard people say they didn't like the doctors office selling the shakes but to me it turned out so much easier. They sold it to me cheaper than I could find it anyway.

You will get sick of the same tasting shake every day...get a variety..that way when one starts to turn your stomach...you can turn to a different one. I started with Bariatric Advantage vanilla so I could mix different flavors in. But the smell started to get to me...so I turned to GNC brand for a bit. Vanilla, is a good base flavor..I have changed the flavors using sugar free Jello mix...or sugar free syrups down the coffee isle.

I just bought the Muscle Milk Pro 50 powder and it's the best I've tasted far. I'll be trying other flavors soon.

I also have Dymatize chocolate and it's OK, but has a flavor that can be off putting.

I have Premier in the fridge too. It's my least favorite but it's easy when I'm on the go or in a hurry.
