What is the best protien drink out there. I am about to start my pre-op diet and I am woundering what is the best tasting thing to drink?

We all have such different tastes. Why not buy a few and try them? My husband likes Muscle Milk and I like Atkins shakes. some are pre-mixed and others are powders that you mix.

You'll also find lots of recipes using the powders under the food and recipe section on the forum.

I am pre-op as well and have looked around online to find companies that offer sample packs or sell individual packages of their Protein powders. That stuff is expensive and I would hate to spend $30+ on something I end up not liking and feeling liek I have to drink it anyway because I paid so much for it. I have also seen some protein "swaps" on here from time to time, so that wouls be another way to try things out without spending a bunch of money.

My favorite is EAS . You can get it at Walmart for $5.98 for 4 . They have 17 grams of Protein in each and 110 cal. They also have EAS with 20 grams of protein and 170 cal. for $6.98 for 4 .

My doctor has a very strict pre-op diet plan. I'm drinking Lemon Tea Nector, which isn't too bad at all. The only problem is that it is difficult to mix. I am using an electric baby formula mixer that works great (purchased in the baby section of wal-mart $4).

All I'm allowed to eat is four 90 calories each Protein drinks, and two 150 calorie Protein Bars. Thats 660 calories per day!! YIKES that's it? I'm only on day three and having a rough time. I feel weak and generally crummy. In the past four days I have dropped 10lbs...

I've noticed that other doctors pre-op diets aren't nearly as restrictive as mine, but am none the less going to be my best to stick with it.

I have been drinking only the Atkins Advantage- I have a 10 strick day pre-op diet- I have 2 or 3 drinks a day. I tried a powder from GNC- didn't like it too much...My husband and I are both getting our surgery on Monday.

He has already lost 15 lbs since Friday!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
