Hello to all,

I am drinking Bolthouse Farms Protein Drinks. These are the only ones I can keep down most at 19 grams of Protein a bottle to 30 a bottle. The bottles are 15.2 fl.oz. Please let me know if anyone has used these and what you think of them. If you know of any others that are nice tasting please let me know. I do not like sweet tasting drinks as in over sweet.

Thank you all.

Mary

Hi Mary: I am using Muscle Milk Light (Chocolate). I mix it with 1/2 cup of ice and it is not too bad tasting and not too sweet. Have also tried Carnation Inst. BF just for a change and that tastes better to me. Its 15 G of Protein when mixed with fat free milk and very low fat content.

Tomorrow our day bf surgery......we can't have any of these drinks correct???? Only Clear Liquids. Let me know what you have been told.

Good Luck on this journey we are sharing together.......I hope it goes well for both of us with no complications. I will look for you at Syosset Hopital if I am feeling up to it. Don't really know what to expect. May God watch over us both in trying to change our lives for the better.

Hi Chris,

I'm not sure so I'm going to stick to clear's like Water coffee Soup Jello and look over my paper work on what to eat. I have been told nothing after 11pm not even water. Think I will get up early and then go to sleep around 10pm.

Did they tell you to make sure that you wash your belly button out funny but true. I too will out for you. As I am on a CPAP machine they will keep me over night. Most of the Dr's G's patient's were told that they would stay over night. Not all of us were on a CPAP machine.

May god watch over you as well my friend.

Thanks Mary: Yes they told me about the Belly button. I am using alcohol & a Q-tip. I guess its close to where they are going? I have to stay overnight as well even though I do not have a CPAP machine. I think all his patients stay over. I guess its a good thing so we can be monitored. Make it come quick now. Tomorrow should be a tough one to get thru. Good Luck again ! We need all we can get at this point.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
