My list contains 100% Isolate Protein Powder. Brands are Unjury, Celebrate, nectar, body fortress, inspire,isopure and dymatize. I am a little defeated right now cause I did loose the 5 pounds requested but have to start on the 31st with only Water and 3 Meal Replacement shakes a day… I might die y’all. I could have done liquid easy cause I love Soup but only 3 shakes???

Can you have some bullion in your Water? Only water and three shakes a day seems really harsh! What about tea? I would ask your dietitian if you could add some different Clear Liquids. How long is your pre-op diet?

Ouch, I hope not!

Ten years ago, the accepted opinion was the whey Protein was superior for supporting weight loss and preventing muscle catabolism. More recent research supports that a combination of both whey and casein is superior. I specifically picked the 2 brands I did (Premier Protein and Fairlife), because they were both milk protein instead of just whey.

I don't know if this will work, but I'm going to try and post some links to research that supports this view:

I love when people post research!

Have you looked at Orgain Clean Protein Shakes (not the powder)? It doesn't specify what kind of protein, just grass-fed milk protein concentrate, do you think that mean it has casein too?

Yes, any milk protein will have both. The problem is they generally don't give the percentage of each. There is research out there that different percentages of casein vs. whey can have different effects, but at this point, we're probably only talking about differences to elite athletes.

Below a post, there's a quote button. press that and it will do what you're looking for. Also, if you only want to copy a part of their response, you can edit the part in the quote box.

I don’t have a quote button… I have to touch the post and hold until one comes up. Which is why it took me so dang long to catch on🤣

Ah, you must be using a mobile device. I assumed incorrectly you were on a PC. Glad you figured it out!

I’m on Day 7 of preop liquid diet. I have 7 more to go before surgery. Surgery is Sept 1st. It’s been challenging that’s for sure. But I’m praying and pushing thru.
