New here doing Protein Shakes this week surgery is scheduled for July 18th. I am starving! Anyone else doing the Bariatric Advantage shakes.

@pumpkinlocks Yes im on the Protein Shakes right now, for three weeks (cries)! I actually like the Bariatric Advantage but I am allowed to make mine with unsweetened Almond Milk, then I freeze it for 30 mins so its like "ice cream" LOL! I have the banana, chocolate, and vanilla. Sometimes I mix it up and do banana and choc together, choco and vanilla, etc. The Vanilla is a little plain so I threw in some cinnamon and vanilla extract.

I got my call to be there at 9:10 so we will be in surgery around the same time.

My surgery is scheduled for Tuesday. I’m nervous and excited at the same time. My goal is to lose 100lbs

I’m grossed out drinking the premier protein-ugh. I’m having a really hard time on the pre-surgery liquid diet. You said you think the Protein Shakes Body Fortress tastes better?

thanks!! Megan

Less sweet and no nasty fake sugar after taste but it is still a Protein Shake so it's not like it's from Dairy Queen. If you like almond milk I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk. I've made it with skim milk and with Water. All 3 are good but the almond milk was the best. Good luck!!!

Tomorrow is 4 weeks until the liquid diet and 6 weeks until surgery. I'm counting down every day!

Today I was bad and ate a few things I shouldn't have but since I won't be able to eat them after surgery I just had to have it now. I know that's a terrible way to think. Back to healthy eating tomorrow!
