Bariatric Advantage Liquid Diet- so sick of chocolate!

[BigKnifeLittleFork 15]

I'm 7 days into my 14 day pre-op diet. My surgeons office uses Bariatric Advantage Meal Replacement shakes, and I made the mistake of getting 2 bags of chocolate Protein Powder. I was actually ok the first couple days. Now I'm so sick of these shakes that I have no clue how I'm going to finish out the next week.

I went on BA's website and bought small packets of the other flavors just to see if I could change it up. But the problem is I'm really sick of SWEET flavors. The Protein Shakes, popsicles, jello- so over all of it.

I've been make by homemade beef broth and have chicken and beef bouillon, but even those are starting to get old.

It's getting to the point where just not eating at all sounds better than trying to choke down another shake.< /p>

I did Optifast and they had a creamy chicken Soup mix. It helped break up the sweet

I did banana first burnt out on it then chocolate. Mixing together weren't as sweet. I did try a couple Soups too definitely a salty taste

I'm not on the pre-op yet, but can you add Peanut Butter or peanut powder to cut at some of the sweetness? I sure hope so cuz my surgeon uses the same shakes and I'm not into sweets much

I'm allowed Peanut Butter, which made the shake taste like heaven on Day 1. Now having 2-3 of that same shake every day for the last 7 days it has gotten old.

@ I'm on day 10 - and I got 3 different flavors of Bariatric fusion (required for my pre-op) - I want to gag at the vanilla and only end up having the chocolate. What's helped me is to add flavors to them - PB2 to both chocolate or vanilla, sugar free syrups (caramel, irish coffee, etc). The other thing you should try is blending them with ice - it seems to help. Are you able to mix them with milk - or do you have to use Water? I can have milk and I use a little more milk than suggested - so it's not so strong.

I used instant Decaf coffee powder and ice cubes in a blender.....tastes great!

ProtiDiet Soups on Amazon are good

Not much you can do.

I don't like it much, but many people here seem to. At least it's not so sweet! I also add GENEPRO to unsweetened iced tea because I can't stand the excessive sweetness of all the shakes either!

You can get unflavored Protein powder and make your own flavored shakes with unsweetened Torani or extracts

What shakes are you drinking ?? All the ones I have are so bland. I am a sweet tooth girly

I just made some chicken broth and added my secret ingredients. Might help you. A touch of poultry seasoning and celery salt . Makes it taste like chicken noodle Soup without the good stuff. Lol

I know exactly what you mean and I'm only on day 4! I'm drinking slim fast high Protein 4 times a day. I couldn't drink the last one tonight, I'm so sick of them along with broth and Jello. I'm scheduled for the 25 th so I have a ways to go. Even crystal light is to sweet. We will do it though just look for the light at the end of the tunnel.
