I just came across these online from Walmart (has to be shipped) and in my opinion they are EXPENSIVE for what they are but if you're having a hard time getting the Protein in its an option I guess if you are unable to do the other suggestions by all the other posters. If you have a Kroger store near you they also have them there but they are in bulk (36 count) and only 1 flavor that I saw. They are called ProSouce Gelatein and there are several flavors besides these two listed below at Walmart online.

The Ratio Protein yogurt is much cheaper priced at Walmart and has several flavors, it has 25g of protein. Also at Walmart online BariWise Gelatin. Not sure of the other stats on this one but it has 15g of protein

Try pro source Protein liquid? They gave me some at the hospital to take home but I have never used it, so I don't have an opinion about it.

I have trouble hitting my protein goals without 1 shake a day, but I am working on that because I don't really like them and I am tired of them.

I am 4 weeks post op, and so far can get to about 50g of protein WITHOUT a shake but can't seem to eat enough to get past that.

I basically only eat meats and Proteins right now too.

Seafood has TONS of protein for very low calories!

Everything I eat has Protein in it from processed Protein Bars, to Protein chips, to Protein Shakes. There is a lot of food out there with extra protein in it if you're not getting enough whole foods to get it in. eggs are an excellent source.

For Water, mix in some sugar-free flavored popsicles and put some sugar-free flavored powder in your water to make it more palatable.

Fairlife nonfat milk has lower sugar and higher Protein in it. I drink a latte every day made with this and can’t recommend it enough.

Maybe fat free cottage cheese? I personally love the stuff. Second the silken tofu suggestion- good as a base for almost everything.

I recently tried the Gatorade zero with protein- it was the least disgusting protein Water I’ve found, which is admittedly faint praise but post op I took against all protein water with a vengeance.

      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.
