pre-op induction drink? Do you mean the Protein shakes? I like the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury protein, and truth be told, I'm really drinking a lot of carnation instant Breakfast.

The other big huge thing of whey protein I bought from Wal- Mart (I think it's six star or something, black and red) I really don't like.

It's all a taste to you thing- the thing I liked about Unjury is they have a sample packet that is pretty inexpensive, and it has 2 chocolate, 2 vanilla, 2 strawberry, 2 chicken broth and 2 unflavored- to try. And I think they're one of the only places that have unflavored, so you can add it to something.

Hope this helps and it's what you meant, LOL. I'm on the pre-op diet right now- surgery on Thursday- already lost 8 lbs!

Yes that is what I meant thank you very much for your reply

I like the protein shakes from costco, they have 30g of protein per shake and cost about $25 for 18 shakes

I went to health store and bought several single serve protein mica to try it was costly that way but I didn't end up buying a large tub of something I hated. I like NOW it has high protein I have chocolate and no flavor that I add small amt to scrabble eggs soup ect.

The premier premade shakes at Costco/ Sams is 30 gm protein no carbs taste good easy to use carry with you doesn't need refrigeration until open 18.00 at Sam for a case.

Right on! Premier Protein...tastes great and 30 grams is a lot for only 160calories...I have been banded 2.5 years, and I drink one every morning!

Hey Murfbe,

I am going to try the unjury 'unflavored' powder that you can add to pretty much any of the foods to help get in that Protein. As everyone has stated, it really is going to be according to what YOU like. I am doing the Bariatric Advantage banana flavored Meal Replacement shakes. I like to add some fruit to this and to me it taste great! However, I am getting really tired of the shakes and need something more 'clear'.

I am just testing everything before surgery so I know what to buy before hand and I want to be prepared and ready.

Here is the link to try UNJURY, I beleive you can buy the single packets to sample..

I like the Chocolate "Unjury" shake. I tried a couple different ones from GNC and thought they were way over priced and couldn't tolerate them much to be honest.
