I use a Protein chocolate powder called Body Fortress, whey Protein. It has 60 grams of of protein per scoop.

Wow! 60? How’s it taste?

Walmart now has an Equate brand available it's less than 6.00 and 30 grams per drink. It's not too bad

I really like Terra’s whey bourbon vanilla- it has a lovely fresh taste to it and it’s sweetened with stevia - goes well with fruit

They have it in chocolate, vanilla and Caramel. I've only tried the chocolate but for under six bucks it's not bad. Just wanted to tell you when you do see it grab what you can because they don't seem to last long on the shelves! I also get the Premier Protien bars Peanut Butter chocolate ones. They're great 30 grams of Protein and they help my calorie intake. I'm just under 7 months out and when I'm calorie deficient I get a little weak hear and there so they're a great add.
Genepro from GNC also helps on the days I'm sick of pre-made drinks. It can be added to anything. It's flavorless and I've used it in broths and other things.

I can’t stand muscle milk. I feel the same about it as you do. I like Premier Protein clear with some crystal light in it.
the premier Protein Shakes are good, I just don’t like the chocolate based ones.



Where do you buy the Protein Clear?

I like Muscle Milk too, but yes the chocolate is just tooo much - so I mix it with vanilla or just regular milk.

I have started sampling some Protein here and there and just tried chocolate muscle milk today. I read really good things about it. I found it to be HORRIBLY thick amd sweet even over ice. Is this the normal consistency of the chocolate Protein Shakes or is it just this brand?

I loved regular muscle milk before surgery. But after, there were too many calories and carbs in the regular, so I tried the light version. OMG, it was like drinking watered down skim milk. It was disgusting. So if the regular muscle milk is overbearing for you, you actually might like the light.

      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.
