CaliQueenBee 0 Posted September 7, 2005 I can't stand those Protein drinks....so, I use a Protein powder in my Soups and this seems to help me. I figure it doesn't matter much whether it's a yucky chocolate Protein Drink or if it's Protein Powder in your soup!! There is one that isn't too awful I tried it's made by Hackley Health Management called HMR. They have a 100 cal shake a 120 cal and I believe 160. You mix them with Water and ice and I toss in a banana and they don't taste as nasty as the others. They're creamy and they don't make you burp up that nast y Vitamin taste. They're not as cheap as others, but I find them to be much better. I also asked the nutritionist about them and she said they were good... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Wannie19 Posted September 13, 2005 I was also banded on 8.29! A little frustrated that I lost 11 pounds in the first 6 days and only one after that, but otherwise doing well. I feel comforted to hear that others are having issues with sleeping as well. It is all I can do to get up in the morning, get to work and get home. I started soft foods this week and go for my first fill tomorrow (9.14). I don't remember the name of the Protein powder I'm using but my husband found it at GNC. It is chocolate flavored. I mix it with a little skim milk and some non-fat frozen yogurt which makes it taste like a milk shake! I couldn't do the other drinks they suggested (diabetic ensure, etc.). They all smelled like baby formula to me! Good luck to all of you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
