Could someone tell me what the countdown and hood milks are and where you get them? Never heard of them. Thanks

Though I have never had them, the carb countdown and hood milks are lower carb, lower calorie versions of milk. I have seen them at the regular grocery store in the dairy case.

Hi Lotsabirds, the Hood brand Calorie Countdown milk comes in 2% in a blue carton and fat free a green carton and chocolate a brown carton. It is sweetened with splenda. I buy it at Walmart or windixie and I have also seen it at publix here in Florida. It is fabulous! only like 90cal 5 g fat, 3 carbs, 3 sugars, 8 protien, for the 2 % white and it tastes just like regular white milk!! I use it in my protien shakes for anything! I love the chocolate, I blend in some instant coffee grounds and ice and whip it up, yum! TRY IT!! :ohmy:

Congratulations on resisting the chocolate and even more for fitting in 2x pants! It's things like passing up the chocolate that got you into those pants. :ohmy:

      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.
