A YUMMIE Protein Shake? !!!!! I have been trying out a whole bunch and today i ran out!!! ahhhh, so off to the base I went and they only had myoplex and muscle milk. muscle milk??? hmmmm....chocoloate mint? YUM! So I grabbed a four pack and came home and poured one over ice...it's REALLY GOOD!!!!!!

Other's on my approved list:

Atkins Carmel Latte - sooooo yummie

Atkins Mocha - i add an oz of sf davinci kaluah Syrup to it and it's my starbucks fix! mmmmm yummie!

Muscle milk has a ton of different flavors so I am going to try out a few more as soon as I find where I can get them.

I've been spying this stuff, too. They even sell individual sized bottles (as well as Muscle Milk bars) at 7-11! I figured if it's that mainstreamed, it can't be *that* disgusting:wink_smile:.

Oh, and I'm pretty sure I've seen the 4pks at Target near the diet stuff, and GNC has it at their stores and on their website. At least you don't have to go making special trips to get the stuff, kwim?

Just make sure you're picking up the Muscle Milk LIGHT and not the regular stuff. There's a pretty signficant difference in the calories and fat. Figures, huh? *sigh*

ETA, well, crap. According to their website (www.musclemilk.com):

MM Light version has 160cal, 5g fat, 20g Fiber

Reg MM has 220cal, 11g fat, 21g Protein

MM CytoCarb II version has 330 cal, 16g fat, 32g Protein

Is it possible to put the Protein Shakes in the freezer and make ice cream or a slushy? :blush: I've never had one before, but I'll be sure to remember the ones recommended b/c (hopefully) I'll be drinking them soon enough!

Hey a good idea to make a milkshake with it is to put it in a blender with ice. I had a friend who did this and it was really good. Also on her preop diet she was allowed to have natural Peanut Butter. She would put chocolate Protein Powder, skim milk, ice and the peanut butter in the blender, also sometimes for an extra boost of Protein she would add some powdered low fat milk. yummy yummy

      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.
