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! :)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
