By the way, for those of you who aren't a fan of vanilla, try adding a little instant coffee (decaf or whatever you're allowed). It's amazing!!!!

What tip about what coupons? I could use coupons! Please?

Ok so if you go to Google type in premier Protein shake coupons 2016. And it may take you a min to find the right link I believe is something like redplum. Com. Any way they have 2 coupons one for $4 off a 4 pack (walmart) and one for $3 off a 4 pack (competitor) either way Walmart will take them both, one pack per coupon and you can print out each coupon twice per electronic device. And I think you can do that once a week? Not 100% sure how often u can reprint. They expire the end of july so still good for a couple more weeks, I went a stocked up. I got 12 packs for $50 instead of $100. They are almost $ 8 here a pack.

Does the premier Protein mess with anybody's G.I. tract? I was drinking them and they gave me diarrhea.

No sorry, I've been living with diarrhea every day for the last 6 yrs due to having my gallbladder removed, so if it did I never noticed.

@@iwanttobethin I never had diarrhea but about a week after surgery I had horrible bloating and a bellyache after drinking a Premier. I drank them on my pre-op liquid phase with no problem. I asked my nutritionist and she said if you graded Protein on an A-F scale Premier is a 'D' and she wasn't surprised to which I wondered why it was suggested in our manual? Anyway, I haven't tried one since and have had trouble with bloating/nausea with most RTD Protein Shakes. =/

Do you take bile salts? It may help because without the gallbladder, you are not processing fat in your diet. The fat could be causing the diarrhea. Maybe research it and try it? Just a thought.

I love these shakes! chocolate is great, banana OK, strawberry tastes like what Play doh smells like and haven't tried vanilla because I'm not fond of the flavor to begin with.

These shakes are great, so far chocolate & banana my favorite. I just got vanilla to try because I read someone used the orange Mio flavor drops in it and it tasted like a Creamsicle!

I'll have to look into that just figured it was something I was just gonna have to live with. My mom had hers taken out the year before me and she doesn't have any of the issues I do so I just figured there wasn't much I could do for it. Especially since I've mentioned it to my Dr's and they haven't said or done anything. But thank you very much I'll look into that!!!

@@finding_onederland She never elaborated why and I didn't think to ask because they bothered me so much I didn't plan on drinking anymore. I'm not sure if it's the quality of whey Protein isolate they use, but you would think whey Protein isolate is whey protein isolate unless it's the source? Even then I'm not sure how she knows that.

      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.
