I posted the thread about the prolab powder, this is what is available at the PX. I just discovered that besides the powder, they also have ready to drink bottles of Myoplex, I think that's how it's spelled. 28g Protein, 4 carbs per serving. I got a four pack for my fridge so that I have something waiting for me when I return. Anybody try this stuff?

Not sure if you are talking about the Myoplex Carb Control or not, but if so, that is what I drink all the time. I travel a lot for business so I stick a 4 pack in my checked luggage and refrigerate them when I get there. That is better than lugging a blender or shaker bottle around with me and having to clean it good in a hotel room. I like them. I sometimes throw a pack of benefiber in with it and shake it up good. They are best really, really cold. So I will put in my thermos bottle with a few ice cubes and drink it.

Texas - I don't know either if they are Myoplex carb control, they come in four packs, are packaged in purple and silver bottles that seem like they are made of the same material that juice boxes are made of. They are about 3-4 inches tall. I'll probably put them in my freezer that doesn't really freeze anything so they'll get super cold. Glad to hear they are good! Are you able to finish one in a single sitting?

Those are the carb control ones. 25g Protein and 150 calories. I am almost 4 weeks out and I don;t seem to have the issues that others do. I can drink like before; mind you, I don't chug, but certainly not sippy, sippy. I drink one most days just to keep my protein up - I still haven't mastered getting all of my protein from food yet. Sometimes I blend up the chocolate one with a piece of frozen banana, pretty tasty.

Yep, I read the label when I got home, they are the carb controls. It's a relief to know that I have a good source of Protein available without having to special order and wait. I don't have access to a blender but I can keep them in the freezer and then use a water bottle with one of those wire shaker balls to get it really blended.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
