I get mine at Kroger and live in Tx. It's what I survived on for the first 2 wks!! Love this stuff and has 13 grams of Protein once you mix in the skim milk.

My local Walmart carries only the chocolate but Publix also have French vanilla. I use it every day. I also add 1/3 cup of dry milk which increases the Protein to 21 grams. I also vary the taste with Torani sugar free syrups like rasberry and carmel. I have them either warm or cold. Walmart has them by the oatmeal. There are also some that are premade in bottles and I am looking to use those when I travel.

I bought mine at Walmart. Love it! I really can't stand the taste of Protein Shakes, so I have been drinking this lately and also adding the powdered milk to up the Protein. Just make sure to get the sugar free. Hope you can find it!

Yes I drink this every morning as my breakfast and sip on it for about 2 hours (I add a lot of ice) I also add a scoop of Protein Powder. I'm finding it harder to find in some stores, so I will check Walmart now that I've read these posts. It's nice and filling, but I think it might be what's making me a little gassy in the morning! Anyone else experience this? I guess the Protein could be the cuprit also.

My husband bought it for me at Krogers. It is very rich so be careful. I didn't really like it to much because I would get about 1/2 through the glass and there would be a slimy film on the bottom... I don't know if it's from the lactose milk or what was causing it, but it was enough to make me stop drinking it...

Thanks, my friends! I did find some today at our Albertsons and am looking forward to having it tomorrow. (It takes very little to get me excited!)

How many carbs does it have? I am going to venture out tomorrow to check it out. MY husband LOVES the regular carnation instant breakfast so he was super excited when he saw that I had jotted a note on the pad by our computer about the SF kind! haha

I bought some yesterday at Dillon's (Kroger sister store) and had some tonight and loved it! I'm so glad I tried it because I am not a big far of Protein drinks. My 9 year old who I have a huge problem getting to eat Breakfast tasted it and wanted his own class. I'm hoping I can get him to drink it in the mornings!

I bought the mix...wondering what the bottles taste like.

Yum!!!

Amazon you can get the individual packets by the case, convenient to stock up. You can also get at drugstore.com and soap.com. Today I mixed 1 packet of choc and one packet of van, pretty good! I am Pre op so drinking 16 oz skim and 2 packets CIB, suggested by my nutritionist.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
