Agreed Premier shakes are pretty good and no mixing as they are ready to go. Syntrax you can get at GNC or The Vitamin Shoppe. Premier is at costco, Sam's and Walmart. Which ones have you tried?

I'm with the girls above Premier was my #1 all through pre-op until now really AND Syntrax! I order mine from vitacost.com. strawberry mousse is my newest obsession. Taste like strawberry nesquick!

I also had problem with Protein until I tried the premier chocolate flavor and now I'm happy I can get my protein in everyday

Syntrax isn't bad. I also did a lot of protein-filled broths (like pho) and made protein gella-o for myself to get by during phase 1

You've gotten good suggestions. In Store Vitamin Shoppe ad GNC are great places to go. Whole Foods and most drugs stores also carry Protein shakes and powders. I am the rare person who hated the taste of premiere Protein. I like Isopure. I can drink their green tea, black tea with lemon and coconut waters. I also liked CVS brand Protein powder. Try to get a variety and try to find one that can be mixed with Soups and teas.

I also ate and still eat loads of FAGE 0% greek yogurt. Early on I used to make a Soup by pureeing Beans, straining it and thinning it with vegetable broth. Add in a ½ scoop of unflavored Protein Powder and it makes for a great high protein, nutritious Soup.< /p>

After so many Protein shakes, I am sick of them. I am three weeks post-op. I now put Protein powder in hot tea. I then pour it over iceto make ice tea since I am not a hot drink person. Best wishes for a quick recovery!

I drink Premier Protein shakes in chocolate & strawberry. They MUST be cold. I also get Syntrax nectar but I mix mine in Silk unsweetened vanilla. I tried Water & couldn't stand it. You can buy individual servings at The Vitamin Shoppe. This way you can try various flavors without having to buy a huge container of the powder. I tried the Isopur drink & couldn't stand it. Tried to give it to my adult kids & they wouldn't drink it either. Ended up throwing out 4 bottles.< /p>

Good luck with your surgery.

Another vote for Syntrax nectar. The fruity ones are, to me, "da bomb".

I have not tried their vanilla/chocolate/strawberry shake flavors yet.

Much lighter than the traditional shakes. They make good Popsicles too.

I'm loving the chicken Soup flavored Protein powder by Unjury. It's yummy. Their vanilla flavor is good also.

      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.
