GNC Lean shakes are SOOOOO Good....and very little sugars. I currently use Premier Protein only because my insurance paid for them.

Vitamins...i started out with Celebrate Multivitamin chewables. (Couldn't stomach them anymore after two weeks) so I switched to the Multivitamin Patches. Also take B-12 sublingual (Nature's Own or something like that), calcium citrate (500) by Bariatric Advantage, and started Biotin and Probiotics (Garden of Life) just a few days ago.

And if you need constant reminders like me of when to take them, etc....the ROUND app is awesome.

Okay, my doctor was talking about Celebrate Vitamins and shakes, they sell them in their office. I have heard that they do not go down too well and they taste bad. I have tasted premier shakes and they are not too bad. lol My doctor does not like the Patches, saying that you don't get all the Vitamins you need from the patch. I guess it depends on the person.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
