Well, Water would be the only thing any better and you don't get any caloric value or Protein from Water. You are doing just fine as far as it not being fattening. You have to have calories and these are GOOD calories. If you have 3 shakes a day you are getting the bulk of your Protein from the shakes with only minimal calories. Good luck and hang in there! I had a shake this morning for Breakfast.

The EAS AdvantEdge drinks are the best I have found so far. The already mixed only have 17g Protein but sometimes it's worth it for the convenience.

I agree about using the EAS brand. I use the powder so I can mix it with whatever I want. Doesn't mix well with vodka LOL. The worst I ever tried was "Body Fortress" whey powder from Walmart. Cheap, and you get what you pay for.

Muscle milk lite premixed is a great meal for me,has loads of Vitamins, 20 grams of Protein and low carbs and calories.I have one for Breakfast and lunch as I do not have time to sit down for an hour for a meal,then I have a normal dinner and use a mix protein at home for after dinner snack the GNC whey protein 2 scoops has 40 grams of protein for a daily total of 80 grams of protein plus whats in my meal.This way I know I am getting in my Calcium, protein and vitamins .

Well I have been on lap-band for 2 and half years. My doctor was fired one month after my surgery, so I am starting all over again with a new doc who has put me on liquids for a week to shrink my stomach back down. So far I like boost high Protein in the chocolate flavor. Not sure how good that one is for me though.

I have the EAS Advant Edge chocolate drink have been drinking it for a week but it still has a slightly chalky taste. Using two ice cubes and a cup of 1% milk. I found Hersey's sugar free Syrup in the store and did a squirt (chocolate but they have strawberry also) into the blender and it sure boosted the flavor and it tastes more like a real milk shake.

I bought powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury drinks online. They were very reasonable haven't tried them yet. Heard they were the best though. Got all 4 flavors and didn't by the no flavor but my try that with other drinks.< /p>

Have appointment (final) with my surgeon tomorrow and want my weight down even more so today all shakes...and tomorrow AM also.

Surgery for 7th and I am sooooo nervous and excited at the same time.

Got to hit the store for a few more things I need post op this week.

Take care all

I like the Protein bullets with Crystal Light...you can get it with 27g or 42g Protein. I usually get peach or fruit punch, if you mix it with the fruit punch Crystal Light, you can't even tell that they are in there!

I also like Jarrow formula Carribean chocolate. 2 scoops with 1 C skim milk...very filling!

I have tried the bullets and they are fine I need to get the fruit punch flavor I think and throw it in the crystal lite fruit punch that Water is good I bet it would be like you said can't tell the difference or that it is in there...a little on the expensive side though ( the bullets) but if it helps then I say go for it....

I have found THE BEST pre-made Protein Drink made. It is called Bolthouse Farms Perfect Protein Mocha Cappuccino. It tastes like something from Starbucks! I tried the Naked brand and thought I was going to throw it up! I found these at Wal-Mart in the section with the refrigerated juices, and there are 3 flavors to choose from. You can check out their website and check the store locator to see if they have them in your area. www.bolthouse.com

After 5 months of going through numerous Protein products. I finally found muscle milk light powder. I mix one scoop with my sugar free carnation instant breakfast. I've tried the Cookies n cream so far and it's great.

      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.
