I to have tried these New Whey Protein Shots. They are sooo gross. I tried the blue raspberry and the grape and both made me sick to my stomach. As far as I am concerned they are a waste of money. The smell horrible! But if you can stomach the taste and smell they are high in Protein.< /p>

I bought the New whey Liquid Protein shots from GNC, and I don't think they're that bad. On a day when I'm low on my Protein intake, I just chug down half of a tube for 21 grams of easy protein. The grape just tastes like strong kool-aid to me.

I really can't stand any of the powdery kinds of Protein drinks since they have a weird taste in my opinion.

You're just going to have to experiment to see what works for you. Buy one of each flavor and try them until you find one you can handle.

The clerk at GNC told me they have a taste guarantee on all their store brand Protein Drinks. If you don't like the taste you can exchange it for something else. I was thinking of using GNC so I can take advantage of taste guarantee. Maybe I should start a thread to see if anyone has taken advantage of this.

      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.
