I bought the Isopure clear Protein drinks and drink on them all day. I Water them down. For a meal I like the Matrix kind. I mix with almond milk. Taste like a malt but not as thick. Yummy.

My favorite is EAS Advant Edge carb control chocolate fudge flavor it comes already mixed; I can not tolerate the mess you have to mix up yourself.

I drank the premier Protein Shakes from SAMs club they taste good are low in carbs and 30 grams of Protein per shake . They come in boxes of 16 I think and they are inexpensive. There is a coupon at SAMs club this week thru July 21st for 4 dollars off and I think they are around 14.99 a case. Also at GNC their brand of Protein powder Cookies n cream and banana taste good also and they have a special sometimes. Buy one get one. Buy the shaker container with the little metal ball to mix it good. Now after your procedure milk like products like the premiere may be hard to get down. But give it some time you will be able to drink them again.

I had pressure in my chest, too after surgery a week though. I was told its the hematoma caused in surgery that was between my pancreas and stomach. Also I read on other threads that's its gas. Either case tell ur doc. Hang in there , it does get better.

The premier is good. Not a big fan of the chocolate, it's a little watery in taste, to me.

I agree but..the key is the high amount of Protein with the low amount of carbs which for me was a key factor in getting my weight down.

Can u recommend a high Protein Shake that isn't milk based? I could tolerate the premiere for about a week before my lactose problem kicked in.

Muscle Milk.... Lactose/milk free and good

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞
