Actually, I think it is even more. It is 8 servings of the evaporated milk which is 200 calories. The values probably change by brand (but I used the same as Tiff) because I only get 27 g of Protein. If I calculate it on myfitnesspal.com is:

1 envelope of SF Carnation Instant Breakfast (Chocolate): 60 calories

1 Cup FF Evaporated Milk (that's 8 servings): 25*8= 200 calories

1/4 cup FF powdered milk: 60 calories

Total:

Calories: 320

Carbs: 45

Fat: 1

Sugar: 40 <-- bad carbs

Protein: 27

I already said this in a different thread, this is a high calorie, high carb item - and considering this, the protein count is actually quite low.

I am sure it tastes awesome, but it's barely better than 2 cups of fat free chocolate milk.

As someone in the other topic stated, each surgeon has their own nutritional guidelines, but I just don't think that this is something that should come as highly recommended because of it's nutritional profile...just sayin'

The carb and calorie alone would keep me from this unless the protein and Fiber count was in the 60-80 gram range.

This sounds like a very delicious thing to have as a very very rare treat once weight loss has been well under way. Sounds almost equivalent to eating a pint of low fat ice cream.
