I'm working my way through a case of the apple-melon flavor, which is the only one I can stand.

Just went for my preoperative registration. 9 lbs down, but my surgeon is more concerned with Protein and Water intake. I like the premier shakes, strawberries and cream for sweet and I like the chocolate and vanilla too. Low sodium Campbell's chix noodle Soup is what I have for a meal. I see my surgeon on Wednesday to make sure labs are good. Lawdy, this is getting real!

I haven't tried the Apple melon yet, I will look for it next time.

I also like the chocolate Premier the best out of all the shakes. I am not a milk or chocolate milk drinker so I knew it wouldn't be a daily drink for me. But it's good to curb the chocolate craving!

Thanks everyone for the encouragement! Surgery is on Thursday!

Oh and diet snapple is good. I like the rock a fruit one. I try to get my stuff from publix or krogers, it's just easier when you work full time. Reading these posts keeps me motivated on the big prize!

@@Charlotte'sMom These are the bomb! 40g of Protein and nothing else to speak of (except the sensation that your ingesting pure corn syrup!) These went down well the day I left the hospital and I use them for liquid reboots to this very day. I encourage you to give the other flavors their fair chance...certain ones took me a while, but they all sit with me now.

I am a milk drinker. I could go on a liquid diet forever, but I know that's not realistic! How u s everyone doing on Vitamins and supplements?

Through trying different samples my NUT gave to me I have found that I like the following,

Celebrate Calcium Plus 500 chewable, taste like a sweet tart candy.< /p>

Celebrate B-12 sublingual Mint flavor.

Bariatric fusion Chewable Multi Vit in mixed berry flavor.

Bariatric Fusion Multi Vit Soft Chews, texture is like a star burst candy.

Good deal.

It's always great to find new sources of Protein that you like.

I've been very fortunate in that I've had great results with a dozen different Protein powders and pre-mixed drinks that I've tried.

There has only been one that I never, ever want to taste again and it is unjury strawberry flavor. Never again. Tossed a brand new can in the garbage. I really like their chocolate and their unflavored.....but never again on the strawberry.< /p>

@@Charlotte'sMom - I use the coconut and ice tea flavors. I use 1 a day. Split it in 3 parts and add it to my Water. I refill a 24 ounce water bottle 3 times a day & carry them everywhere. I get in my Protein and Fluid. Combined with any food I eat, I easily hit 100gms protein each day.

      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.
