I love the amaretto hot chocolate.< /p>

Also the mushroom Soup.

I didn't like the powder juice Protein. I bought Popsicle molds and made them into Popsicles.

Have you tried the Syntrex Nectars? They are 100% whey Protein isolate, no carbs, no sugars, just ~22 Protein per serving. Some of them you mix with skim milk (although I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk) and some with Water. They also have an unflavored protein product that I am currently mixing into almost everything (having real trouble drinking more than a couple of ounces of anything) and I can't taste it, even in plain Water.< /p>

Go to www.si03.com and put your cursor over the monthly special. It'll tell you how to order their sampler pack (15 single-serving flavors for $17with shipping) so you can test out flavors and see what you like. Although you can order the sampler pack only once, you can order the 2 pound containers more cheaply from places like luckyvitamin.com

I cannot tolerate the ready-to-drink shakes. They taste like cooked protein and feel slimy; that's why I was looking at powdered WPI.

I also have major issues with Protein shakes etc.

If you like coffee at all try this, it is the only thing I have found that is not just tolerable but kinda good.

1 Caramel Premeire protien shake

1 single pack nescafe hazelnut instant coffee

Some crushed ice

Almost like it came straight from your favorite coffee shop.

Sounds delicious! I'm going to try this. Thanks for sharing.

You can use the vanilla or the chocolate Premeire too but the Caramel the best if you can find it.

If you don't get enough Protein you will lose muscle and begin to lose your hair. Lean muscle helps burn calories and the body doesn't retain Protein do we need to eat it everyday. My trainer said that I should be taking in more than the suggested 90 grams but that is impossible without shakes and bars etc. I'm 3 months out from surgery. We will get used to this.

Had the same issues. I'm 8 weeks out and gagged on every shake I tried. I'm back to Premier chocolate ones because they are tolerable but I have to force it down. BUT that's 30g of Protein in one shot! I also use the Syntex nectar in flavored Water (I love the Raspberry Lemonade Great Value flavor) so that adds another 10g of Protein. Another thing that has saved me is eating a lot of Greek Yogurt. Each one is about 11-12g of protein. I learned the hard way though that not getting your protein in will cause your weight loss to STALL.

      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.
