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.

      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.
