People laugh when i saif the vitamin taste, ever notice the tatse of a disolving vitamin? thats the taste i cannot hack..I never knew GNC took things back...so if i bought some Isopure powder and its nasty they take it back??? Hmm may have to look into that one, i hate throwing money in the trash, the EAS price didnt bother me it was 4.50 for 4 of them so the waste wont hurt but when something is 40-50.00 then i have a problem with it...

jdmerck posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ok i am new HIIIII so i go to set my appt up for the surgery (Dec 15) and i start my 2wk liquid diet on Dec 1 she said the protein drinks they recommend is EAS, Atkins and some other Carb Advantage i think, my question to yall is is there anyting better that is not a "Milky" product that taste good...i hate MILK and anything (cept milkshakes) make me wanna hurl, i tried slim fast once and the taste of vitamins make me sick to my stomach for days...i need something good in order for me to make it threw this, i can handle the 3 servings of dairy like cottage cheese and or yogurt and the unlimited broth, jello and SF pop..but the protein drinks have me worried HELP please -

Thanks for the info, i can handle yogurt and the cottage cheese i will be able to have i just worry about the actual protein shakes..LOL i can drink a Arby's Milkshake but i think thats why i am where i am... I will swing by GNC today and see the Isopure i see they have pre-mixed in a bottle to drink, i will see the facts and see if it matches the EAS shakes they told me to try and drink during those 2wks -

Hey there everyone, just got back from my Dr and my date has been set Dec 15th super excited and scared!!! -
Hi there my name is Dawn in from SW Florida and i met with the surgon today, Tricare approved me 5wks ago which took a day to approve me, but 5 wks to get in to see the surgon, i loved him, so sweet and caring and explained everything, i dont seems worried at all (fo now) so now i amw waiting for the office to call back for i guess the next step or blood work, a scope or my stomach i guess, he said Tricare sometimes does not make you do nutition or pysc but we will wait and see, nothing like getting this done before the holidays of eating, i guess thats why i need this... I look forward to sharing my story and hearing about eveyone here
