Premier Protein Cookies 'n Cream isn't bad. I've heard the strawberry 'n Cream is good too, but that it's hard to find. Advantedge has a Cold Brew coffee shake that I like. It's lower in Protein (17 grams), but also only 100 calories. They make a chocolate Marshmallow that I want to try (30 grams of protein), but I haven't seen it in stores.

I like Premier Protein peaches and creme, some people thing,it tastes fakey but to me it tastes just like peach soda pop, I also like Muscle Milk Blueberry Greek yogurt flavor, lower I proein, a little high carb count but I like blueberry, caramel,premier Protein, strawberry Muscle Milk and Svelte,french vanilla, it is soy based don't taste it though, cool and smooth. What I don't like is Wal-Mart Equate, yes it is supposed to be equivalent to PP but to me has that fakey evaporated milk undertaste. Others I really haven't tried that much.

I just tried the Premier Strawberries & Cream - NASTY! :( I am discouraged already and this is only liquid diet day one! I am starving...diabetic to boot!

I like the "Advant Edge" (by EAS) carb control shakes - especially the cold brewed coffee. 100 calories and only 3 carbs and 2.5 fat. Otherwise the only other shakes I like (that I've tried) are the Premier Protein (and yes, the Cookies and cream is really tasty). Had a muscle milk the other day. Never again.

I finally got my surgery date for August 21. I'm down 20 lbs and so ready for this journey. Going to preop meeting on July 31st. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I am drinking Bariatric Advantage Meal Replacement shakes they are good.

I NEED 30grams of Protein per drink and premier is the only one I've found. I order from Amazon but they are taking long with my order. I've complained so hopefully it will help.

I'm using Isopure Zero Carb Proteins for my morning proteins, 25g per scoop. The flavors are good and they have a fantastic unflavored version.

I used Gold Standard Casein proteins for my nightly Protein, Casein is a "Slow protein" so it's good for night time consumption.

Anyone stating that they need X amount of protein per shake... I'm curious why you think that. We've all got targets, I've never heard of anyone with a hard set requirement to consume exactly a set number of grams of protein per shake...

I like the Isopure Protein. Cookies and Cream is a favorite. Plus it's zero carbs :)

I like Premier Protein 'cookies n' cream' and 'caramel' and 'bananas & cream'. I also like the Advant Edge chocolate (chocolate fudge or something?) and the coffee one (tastes just like those little bottles of starbuck's frappuccinos.)

Aside from the PP bananas/cream, I haven't like most "fruity" flavors I've come across in Protein Shakes so I'd advise most to stay away. Muscle Milk is gross.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
