miso Soup, white grape fruit juice, crystal light popsicles. sugar free Jello in every flavor known to mankind

I was just at an Asain grocery store the other day and they have broths in every flavor: shrimp, spicy shrimp, crab, fish, beef, chicken, etc. I was so happy as I am starting my 2 weeks clear liquid tommorrow...

Glad you are doin ok and congrats on the band!!!!

Thank you for your suggestions. I am not sure why, but I had to do Clear Liquids for 2 days prior to my surgery. I keep seeing where most people had to do 2 weeks prior to surgery. Man, that has got to be tough. I will say a prayer for you.

I tried just buying broth in chicken and beef but I wouldn't stand the taste. I resorted to just using the flavoring packet in ramen noodles. no noodles, just broth. Since I love ramen, it was a good staple for me.

Marie, try adding the ramen seasoning packet to the chicken or beef broth you purchased - that way you get the flavor and the needed Protein.

I was not aware that the ramen seasoning packet or broth had much protein....how much do they contain?

I used to live on ramen noodles. Read the label. The seasoning is very high in sodium and other things not so good for you. I highly recommend unjury chicken broth flavored Protein powder - 21g or Protein. It calls for 1 scoop in 8 oz of Water, but I usually double the Water. I also add it to mashed potatoes to add more protein.

Isopure protein waters have 40g of protein in a 20oz bottle. They come in several flavors. I get them at GNC, which has a lot of other Protein drinks.

I think one package of ramen seasoning has 10g Protein.

For your ticker, you get the code when you are done creating it, and then copy and paste it into your signature.

I agree!! Unjury is at the top of my reccommendation list. I had the chicken Soup flavor for Breakfast every day post-op until I ran out.

You can only get it online at unjury.com, but they ship pretty quickly. So you won't have it today, but in a coupla days when you get it, it will be a welcomed change.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
