Hi everyone!

My surgery is scheduled for August 5th.

I want to try some different Protein shakes/drinks so I know what I like and have them ready. What are some of your favorites?

I'm August 9th and I'm also trying to find good shakes. I would love to try the premier shakes since they have so much Protein but can't find them around here. We don't have a costco anywhere in the state and I looked at Amazon and couldn't believe the cost!! Maybe Sam's club? Idk but I'll look into these others. I have heard great things about unjury though.

Ask your nutritionist if she can give you a sample of Unjury. My hospital gift shop carries it, but I've always bought online.

Thank you to everyone for your suggestions!

Not sure why, but tonight I started getting sooooo nervous. I guess that's normal...

Trying to be proactive and make sure I have everything I need, especially since the next few weeks will fly by.

Thanks again!

Last minute jitters are normal. Once you're at the hospital, they will keep you too busy to think about being nervous.

Anyone try naturade total soy Protein? I've been drinking it and it taste pretty good. Does it have enough protein for me or should I try something different?

Check out bariatricfoodie.com great protein shake recipes. Peanut brittle is my favorite!

I get the insopure unflavored powder and make my own, they're SO much better then the premade ones. My favorite 2 are strawberries, peaches, and crystal lite lemonade with the powder (tastes like frozen lemonade) or the powder mixed with milk, lite Hershey's syrup and ice cubes (tastes like Wendy's frosty)

Have you used the ISO Pure in broth? I want to buy some and freeze 1 oz batches of homemade broth with the protein added so it is ready for after my surgery.

I have Isopure broth. I not know about the freezing.

Gnc has protein shakes on sale buy one get one half. I bought 2 cases today.

Nice I will check it out. I get a brand from Walmart that is pretty good. Body Fortress Advanced Whey Protein, I use it with bariatricfoodie.com's protein shake recipes.

I love slim fasts meal replacement shake mix I mix milk and a couple cubes of ice and it tastes like a real milkshake

GNC Lean Shake in premixed chocolate is the only one I liked because it's not dairy free. The skim milk goes a long way with taste.

I can't use milk so I use water, a little SF pudding, and SF coffee house syrups it is so flavorful and creamy. Totally bariatric Foodie...

Do you have the bariatric foodie cookbook? Is it worthwhile?

I just picked up some of the isopure zero carb in the glass bottles at GNC- they're cheaper elsewhere! we have a supplement warehouse- i dont know if you do.. but check around.. they're not delicious.. but they're really low cal (1.5) low carb <5 and have about 40g of protein.. they taste sort of like a propel or powerade… just a little less tastey… hope this helps! also tried muscle milk light- it was good, the chocolate was basically like a yoohoo (but better- i dont even like yoohoo HAHA!)

I can't drink milk so I got this protein shake that has no milk in it called lean shakes at gnc Omg so yummy strawberry is soo good I got me a case for 30 bucks but its worth it!
