I even tried the strawberry, its a little too sweet for me since I have cut pop and diet pop out of diet. Never thought I'd say that, but the chocolate is the best so far, and I have added ice and a little fat free milk to the strawberry which helps, Premier Protein is the best so far.

I do much better with the Protein powders than with the ready-to-drink shakes. The processing that the RTD shakes undergo kind-of cooks the protein, and I can't stand the smell or taste, unless the shake is a strong chocolate and freezing cold. With the powders, those using whey protein isolate will have the least off-flavor and off-smell. Syntrax Nectars are made fro WPI and are all protein- no carb or fat, except that which comes from whatever you are using as liquid. I prefer to mix shakes with unsweetened vanilla almond milk instead of skim milk; I can't stand the smell/flavor of the skim milk, which I can detect even when it's mixed with shake powders.

Thanks everyone for the recommendations. Im currently trying New Whey Liquid Protein. It's only 3.8 ozs so it's not overwhelming to try and get through in a day, for now. Its 42g Protein. Im trying acai berry. It's not horrible. I may be able to choke this down if I hold my nose. It's the protein smell that really gets me.





I Am glad you mentioned these. I have some ordered. I was planning on mixing it with. Crystal light frozen into ice cubes and run through the ninja lol. I really love slushes.

      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.
