I saw Premier Protein today at costco and I am wondering if they are any good. I was looking for the thread that talked about them but I can't find it. I think I'm going to try the chocolate. The clerk said I can bring them back if I don't like them.

What say you?

I find them too sweet, but a lot of people here love them and use them.

I still drink one every day and I am 18 months post op. 30 grams of Protein for only 160 calories and 5 carbs. I drink one every day on my way to work. I think the chocolate tastes like chocolate milk. I found the vanilla to have an artificia taste, never trid the strawberry. I put it in the freezer for about 20 minutes first. Great way to start the day.

You've got nothing to lose if they will take them back.

Okay, Thanks! I like chocolate milk. That's the one I was gonna get. I'll pick it up tomorrow. I have never liked vanilla Protein powders and strawberry flavored anything except strawberries is a turn off for me. lol

I warm it up for my morning drink. If I can get that whole thing in, I'm halfway done for the day. I take another one to work and drink that one over ice. 60 grams of Protein, yay! Once those two are in I don't have to stress, I can pick on a piece of chicken or some other kind of meat, but don't feel forced to eat it. I absolutely cannot believe I just typed that! Who would have ever thought that eating a piece of chicken would be difficult!!!!

I drink one almost every day. Sometimes 2 a day. The chocolate is good. Vanilla is ok but not as good as the chocolate. I also drink Protein Water too.

I drink one everyday for lunch usually. Before surgery I used them on my pre op diet but had to cut them with 4oz of milk they were to sweet for me. After surgery I still cut them with skim milk for awhile because of the thickness, but after a couple weeks I was good to go drinking them on their own.

costco has them $5 off a case limit two. My hubby bought two and I bought two, great savings!!!!

Yes there is Protein Water. It is hard to find though. The Vitamin Shop has them. Recently, the Giant grocery store near my house started carrying them. I have seen them in different flavors.

@@Essence46 Protein Water? ?

      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.
