Yes, mixing them is just fine. I buy the 26 gram shots and they don't make me feel too full. If they make you that full, I would drink half now and save half for later.

Jodi where do you get those??? Can you help me out. But do the ones you have (26 grams) make you feel kinda full for a while?

I wouldn't say full...just satisfied.

I found the 26's at my local Walmart. They were $1.97 each, fruit punch flavored and taste pretty good mixed with Fruit Punch flavored Crystal Light. Can't recall the name brand but the label is orange. They were in the Health and Beauty department near the Atkins shakes and stuff. I hope it is something that they stock regularly, I bought every one that they had a week or so ago and am waiting for them to restock.

Yes, you are going to feel full......it's very hard to get in all your Protein and liquid requirements the first few weeks. Don't put pressure on yourself to do it....it will happen gradually. And remember that the Protein drinks also count as liquids.

Thank you Gayle. I am just tryign to get the most protein for myself I can't do cottage cheese and foods I don't like if that mkaes sense.

The name brand is Body Fortress...here is a picture, they had them displayed just like the picture.

I guess it couldn't hurt to contact them. Like I said I bought them all and they haven't restocked since which leaves me wondering whether this is a regularly stocked item.

P.S.

Found on the Body Fortress website a "where to buy link" here is what it came up with:

I have used these too. Boy, the price you mention at Walmart is so much cheaper than GNC... I may have to look their as well. I mix them with fruit punch crystal light to keep the calories at a minimum. I usually buy the 42 gram ones and drink 1/2 in the morning and 1/2 at night. I read someplace that anything more than 20 grams of Protein in one sitting is a waste, your body can't metabolize it. I don't know if it is true or not, but I figured I would break it up anyway...

Florida girl,

I have seen comments where that is true and some that it is not, who knows...

So, are you saying that they carry these at GNC? I need to come up with a plan B in case Walmart doesn't get anymore in. Are they a lot more expensive?

I got the same one's at GNC the thing I don't like about them is they are thick and don't put them in the frgg like I did .

Have not tried to mix it just drank it straight.

Yeah, I heard that you shouldn't refrigerate them and I wouln't be able to get them down straight, not because of the flavor but because of the consitency. They are pretty good mixed with a similar flavored Crystal Light though.

      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.
