i just wondered if you have to have shakes as i hear so many people hate them but need the Protein so they put up with them. i know i do not like normal milkshakes so i can imagine i will hate them. once upon a time you could buy empty fat (flakes) that you add to gain weight, then mix with your own food so that there was no unpleasant taste. i just hoped there is something of that basis and if there was what is it called. i live in england so i hope there is someone out there from the u.k that know of anything also the best Vitamins and minerals someone said that metatone is ace and is in liquid form. i know i have not even had the surgery yet but i do want to know all about it before i go ahead. daft i know but i am one of those people that has to know it all before i take that leap.....

Yes, Google "protein powder" and you will find many products both flavored and unflavored, I just Googled "protein powder UK" and found without much searching that Amazon UK has it. So you should be able to find something. Good Luck!

Even unflavored Protein Powder however is not neccessarity flavorless. I would talk to your doctor about the nut. level they want. For example if they want you to do very low carb you may have to add the Protein powder to a broth rather than a pureed Tomato Soup.< /p>

One question I have is it the flavor or the texture that you don't like about milkshakes? In the Northeast of the US we have two terms: milkshake and frappe. A frappe is thicker and is made with ice cream. For Protein Shakes I would make "milk cubes" out of fat free milk. I would use a blender adding 2 milk cubes for 1/3 cup of the milk and a couple ice cubes. Gives the shake a frosty texture. Also some nice add ins for small calories are suger/fat free pudding powder (that's American pudding. I know British pudding refers to dessert in general. Not sure what you would call it. We keep it in the baking isle. The instant kind you make with just cold milk). Also suger free Syrup which is used to flavor coffee (Davinchi brand here in the US).

many thanks for answering, American pudding i think is called a mousse here and i do like mousse. i like the ice-cream type milkshakes but not any watery or thick shake, strange i know but i know i should try a few before hand and see if i could stomach it. i shall look for a Protein mousse. many thanks
