I really like whey gourmet Peanut Butter and chocolate.

You get them at netrition.com

You can buy all sorts of stuff there, and no matter how much you order, the shipping is 4.95

I usually drink a Protein drink almost every day because I am lazy and it's the easiest way for me to get my Protein in.

I drink muscle milk light... It comes in a bunch of diff. flavors. Right now I am drinking Cake Batter. YUMMY. Its about $30.00 at GNC for a tub of it. They make pre mixed stuff, and it is not as good as the powder you mix yourself. I am only 3weeks post op, so I drink it in the morning. I cant drink the full thing of two scoops so I may try to do only one scoop in morning and then one scoop later for a snack, maybe after I run... I haven't got a system down yet:(

But for two scoops its 195 calories, which is good compared to alot....It has 6 of Fat 11 Carbs and 25 Protein 1 fiber.... Just make sure if you get it, you do the light because the normal stuff has alot higher calories. I have tried Isopure before, and couldnt stomach it. It was like a watered down koolaid to me. MusleMilk is like a milk shake, very filling and I dont have to force it down.

Hope this helps :thumbup:

Muscle milk is delicious. I've never bought it in a powder though. I've had the chocolate ready made that I bought at costco and it's so yummy.

I am going to look for this at GNC when I go out of town as we don't have a GNC here. I'm going to be on liquids again after my revision surgery.

There is a big difference between the muscle milk and the light muscle milk light.

The whey gourmet Peanut Butter and choc. is 120 calories

2 grams fat 3 grams carb

I like any of the BSN Lean Dessert powders. Absolutely no aftertaste and it feels like a treat.

where do you get this? I have never heard of it.

      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.
