I just bought a case of 15 of these at my local costco for 15.89. They are 18oz drinks with two servings per bottle, 5 calories per serving and 1 gram of sugar per serving. The flavors in my case were, blueberry, coconut, clementine, dragonfruit and pomegranate. The lady that was giving out the samples let me and my daughter try each flavor before we bought them.

Has anyone else had these?? They were so yummy, and NO icky aftertaste which for me is fantastic. I am a little over 6 months out and use Decaf tea (hot and iced) and Water to get in my liquids. It will be so nice to have some other flavors to choose from.

Let me know if anyone else has tried these and what you think. They carry them at Walgreens, Target, some grocery stores. They were the cheapest at costco because they were running a special with a $4 off instant coupon.

I use GENEPRO and mix it with Crystal Light. It can be mixed with hot or cold. It is oderless and flavorless. It has 30 grams of Protein. I keep a big cup of it at my desk......I get in my Protein and Water at the same time.

I LOVE these! I could not tolerate artificial sweeteners postop, so I was drinking skim milk, herbal Decaf teas, 100% fruit juice, and regular (not low cal) sports drinks. Then I discovered these! Yum. The only downside is they do contain caffeine which I am sensitive to. I can't drink them after about 3pm or I won't sleep. Other than that they are one of my favorite fluids

@TEXASLADY52 I also use the GENEPRO and have since day one. I use it in my 32oz of Decaf tea every morning to give me a jumpstart for the day for my Protein intake and liquid. I have no problems getting all my Protein or liquid in, but these drinks just give me a yummy alternative to just decaf tea and Water. I cannot do the crystal light or liquid enhancers, I cannot stand the aftertaste and how I feel even after 1 sip.

@Kindle I didn't see the caffeine in them, but that doesn't bother me at all. I drink the decaf tea now because my surgeon said it was better for me. I am just so excited to have other options that are not full of calories and sugar!!

I can only do the lemonade. I cannot stand a sweet drink. I stop at Sonic every morning and get a 44 oz cup of ice......this usually will last me the entire day. Like you...I have no problem keeping my Protein and Water intake up.

      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.
