Syntrax Nectars fuzzy navel, Twisted cherry, etc and cuappuccino. Worst for me was any of teh readys made shakes, like premier, rtd30 etc.

If your interested you can see my video taste tests of many flavors and brands on my blog, the videos are spread across the posts, so you have to go back a little. but im brutally honest about the tastes etc.

i will be moving them to you tube probably this evening and ill post a link to them then as well.

Just started preop liquid diet (day3) and according to the great reviews I pulled the trigger on Premier Protein @ costco all three flavors @ $25.00 for a case of 18 eleven ounce containers. Granted nutritionally you can't beat the numbers but Ugh they just taste awful I know everyone is different but wow these are just not what I expected, i'm going try the Syntrax brand next. Any recommendation's from the vets to this dumb rookie would be highly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

      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.
