I got thrown for a loop on my pre-op. The first week, I wasn't strictly adhering to my new surgeon's diet. Not my fault! I was told I could keep my previous dietician from another surgeon and was following that diet. However, it seems I'm supposed to be drinking 5 or 6 shakes a day per the new surgeon. I wasn't prepared supply-wise. And Amazon screwed me. The whole dang world is conspiring against me, haha. So, I have no choice but to get an interim order of 100 cal. muscle milk, something my supermarket will deliver tomorrow. Muscle milk light is on my surgeon's approved list, not the 100 calorie, but I suppose it makes little difference. My question: how is muscle milk? I wanna know before I place the order so I know how much to order. I'm wondering if I should just switch from Premier since the muscle milk is so much easier to get. Thanks.

I like muscle milk , but I get the pro version 32 g if Protein. If I grab the 25 G Protein version in the gas station they have more flavors!

I like chocolate, vanilla, Cookies and cream and banana. I am not a fan of strawberry.

Do you have a GNC near you? They have lots of options on powder or ready made protein drinks!

My grocery store carries a lot of different shakes including muscle milk pro.

Good luck!!

You can order Premier from costco online and don't have to be a member. I like the vanilla. The chocolate flavors fluctuated, sometimes chocolatey, most times it was not.

this.. Thanks for the info. I was a little surprised to hear I could order from costco online without a membership. However, when I tried to order, a warning message came up that I may be assessed a non-member surcharge. I suppose that could be taken to mean that I may not be assessed, haha. Their prices are nothing special, at least on the premier, that I would pay for a membership. How do you manage to order without a membership with no surcharge?

I am a member, but my mom orders Vitamins and stuff from them online. I did not know about the 5% surcharge. When they have the Premier on sale ($3.00 or $5.00 off a case) it seems to be a better deal. Right now they are about $1.38 for each container at costco. $24.99 for 18 drinks.

I went ahead and ordered. It was only $2.50 more on a $50 order. The price per unit came out to be $1.62 with everything - tax, shipping and surcharge. That's not so cheap but I don't feel like looking all over the net to save a few dollars. But I do need a reliable source for the future. I might try ordering directly from Premier in the future depending on their price with extras added on. Amazon is totally confusing when it come to Premier. There are so many different deals that you need an amazon consultant to make the best choice! Walmart has limited Premier products. Thanks for your help.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
