Okay, I'm over Isopure, lol. I will still sip it but it's hard to get it all in in one day. It's freaking difficult to get in 60-90 grams of Protein in a day when you're only taking in liquid. Sheeesh. I'll make it though. I know I feel a LOT better when I get my Protein. What do the beginner sleevers do for protein? I'm just curious.

Summer time..My favorites right now.....

Mix Crystal light sweet tea & Chrystal light blackberry lemonade together in Water and Ice. I have even added a few fresh blackberries to my glass.

Lime juice, Water, Lots of ice, Stevia and fresh mint mixed with water..Garnish with slices of lime....Virgin Mojito

Great value tropical pineapple coconut lime.

If you want to get some Protein in with your water- Isopure makes flavored water. Sample it first to see if you like it.

Thanks I was going to ask where can i purchase but I clicked on link to GNC. I'll swing by there. Any other stores that you reccommend with Protein Snacks, e.g. Whole Foods.
That was extremely helpful! Thank you soo much!!!

Bai5 I like mango, but it comes in several flavors. Sweetened with Erithritol, and does have some caffeine.

I like to add the those single serve crystal lights packets to a 32oz bottle of Water so it's not to sweet. I usually get the Walmart great values brand since there like half the price.

Be careful with the pre made ice teas like Snapple and Arizona, even though there sugar free they have a a lot of preservatives and can stall your success, my wife learned this the hard way when she stopped drinking the weight began dropping again.

Vitamin Water zero (lemon!) when in a pinch

Unsweetened green tea at Starbucks

Sweet leaf sweeteners in my purse make all beverages better

Lemon, grapefruit, lime, or orange oil in iced Water with sweet leaf

Cucumber slices in water is amazing too!

      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.
