I'm sure it tastes great, but... it's got 44gms of sugar in a 12 oz serving along with 48gms of carbs. My doctor says "no no no" to Protein Drinks with more than 3gms of sugar and 3gms of carbs. This is the kind of Protein Drink meant for hard core athletes who would burn off the sugar and carbs in a normal workout, not so much for us trying to lose pounds, we've got to stay away from these.

my NUT said this is acceptable in the first few weeks when we are not having any other food intake. This would be a once a day type thing of course.

Wow... must be nice!! I want to have your NUT! My NUT says no food of any kind, only liquids and Protein drinks that fall into the "less than 3gms" rule for two weeks, then pureed foods and protein drinks the third and fourth week and those pureed foods must be high protein foods; pureed meat, Beans, eggs. I have noticed on here that every Dr./NUT has a different recommendation. A girl at work had the same surgery and her Dr/NUT only recommended 50 to 70gms of protein a day ,while mine says 90 to 100 gms. We were about the same weight and height so I'm trying to figure out why the big difference in our numbers.

Whatever your NUT recommends just go with it. I wish you the best of luck in this crazy journey we're on!

My regime is a lot like carolina girl's with a limit on carbs of 15 grams per drink. Goal is 70 Protein per day. One thing I am aware of is higher carbs will trigger more hunger; so be careful of the high carb drinks.< /p>

My doctor says keep it under 10 grams sugar. There is NO WAY that I would drink something with 40 grams of sugar! Be careful girl, we can get dumping syndrome too. That large amount of sugar in a semi-starvation state can cause some serious issues...be careful!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
