Welcome Godsgirl!

I didn't think EAS Protein shakes were bad tasting. I also have ISO FEmme Creamy vanilla Sky, lower in calories and higher in Protein. There were two EAS I found, I think the one was Ultra. I have tried a couple but never notice the high calorie count.

I also just ordered Syntrax Fuzzy Naval and chocolate Peanut Butter Creme (extremely high protein count). Then I ordered powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup flavor.

I'm not home, and I think I have another kind, but I just bought it last night so I can't remember.

Go to Amazon and type in Protein Shakes. You can get a lot of names and then begin to research.

I'm not sure where you are located, but I have gotten terrific deals at my local Grocery Outlet. I have purchased 4 containers of the ISOFemme vanilla Sky for $9.99 a 15.6 oz container. Online they are upwards of $25 to $30.

Good luck, there are so many.

And again, welcome to a great support group.

Hello! I use the Premiere Protein chocolate. Like you, I tried the strawberry and cream, and yuck! But the chocolate tastes, to me, a lot like chocolate milk. So far, it's really the only 'protein' specific items I can tolerate, and I've tried different Soups, shakes, etc.

I really like Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard, unjury, Jay Robb, Chike, Syntrax Matrix, and Syntrax nectar sweets.

Unjury also sells a sample/starter kit, just Google Unjury starter pack or something like that.

I didn't really like any of the RTD very much, I think EAS CarbAdvantege was the one I liked okay that had decent numbers. You have to be careful with the RTD stuff -- many of them have sub-optimal forms of Protein, or terrible numbers on calories or carbs.

@Godsgirl39 I use Atkins pre-made chocolate ... I take half of that and mix in a scoop of Jay Robb whey Protein powder ... I call it my double shot!

I like the Atkins because they are carb conscious ... and we all need to be after surgery!

There are SO MANY different shakes out there ... you will find the right one :)

Good Luck to you! :)

      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.
