Pre-op diet

Good Afternoon everyone. I am on my pre-op diet and would like to know how one gets a protein drink down, I have bought three different kinds and they are just awful. I am trying to drink Eas chocolate drink now and am having a very hard time. I used a straw and couldn't get anything in the straw because it was so thick. I added some skim milk and a packet of equal with it. I am hoping this is okay and not cheating, but I had to do something. Anyone else having this problem???

I like Low Carb Slimfast and the Atkins shake. For more protein I add some protein whey powder in a blender with ice and that realy works for me. If you are allowed, add a banana. The protein powder ups the protein by 20 grams so that really helps.

Thanks, I didn't know they made low carb slim fast. On my sheet from the Dr. it says I can't have slim fast but nothing about low carb slim fast. I think I will try it. I hate the other stuff. Thanks again.

i have the same problem..i was never able to drink down those thick, chauky drinks with out gagging. So now i am sticking to Carnation Instantd Bfast and Kellogs shakes, they dont have as much protein but i can drink it with out gagging i just have to drink alot more of it.

A friend of mine brought me down Whey Portein (super advanced) 52g of protein. I tried it with skim milk and it tasted just fine without any thickness, or chauky taste, not a bad drink. I use one scoop/skim mild twice a day. Works out well and I can stomach it. Try it, it is good.
