I had my RNY gastric bypass on Monday, 8/8/16. I'm home and on the 2 week liquid diet now. Any thoughts of good liquid Protein Drinks? I used a container of Kroger carb master cinnamon roll yogurt, milk, and vanilla Protein powder and blended it together. Made 2 servings. Just looking for other people's suggestions. Thanks.

If you're looking for Protein drinks other than "powder based", you might take a look at About Time Prohydrate. It's a Water based Protein Drink that has 20g of Protein per bottle, and is a nice break from the powder-based drinks. Also, Isopure is another option and I think their bottles are 44g of protein (but are larger bottles).

Also, you could try adding some unflavored protein to Soup broths. That was a big help for me immediately post-op.

Best of luck!

I used RTD chocolate..

I have added sugar free syrups

My favorite has been Raspberry

I also have added PB2 for a chocolate Peanut Butter shake

"The world according to egg face" blog has tons of shake recipes and she's amazing.

      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.
