So far, I've really liked Unjury's chicken Soup, strawberry sorbet, and unflavored. Chike Nutrition's chocolate is excellent. (Both brands you can find online.) For ready-made... my absolute favorites have been Atkins Advantage shakes. :) I'm on day 8 of my 2-week pre-op diet, and I have cast my net far and wide to try a lot of the different ones out there in such a short time!

Thanks for asking. Today was my first day of sampling Protein Shakes. I have never been a fan of these drinks but figured i should probably find something that I like. Anywho, i tried Spiru-Tein today and OMG.....couldn't do it. I threw it down the drain and opted for cottage cheese. If anyone knows of a really good vanilla, chocolate or french vanilla Protein Shake, please share.

I really enjoy a Protein shake that i came acorss here at my local health store. It's called 'JEM' it only requires 6-8oz of Water or beverage of your choice and 1 scoop of powder which equals 32 grams ( i get the rest of my Protein from meats and the food i eat considering im 10 weeks out) of protein. I drink the chocolate once per day and once i start working out its recommended to take in two.

Even though I have been told my tasts could change. I am having my sugery on Jan 26th. I have been trying some of the Protein Shakes. So far I like the Pure Protein shakes. I hav etried Chocklot, strawberry, and Vinalla and I like all of them. They have 35 grams of protein, 4 Carbs, and 1 gram of sugar. 160 to 170 calories per 11oz can. I found them at GNC and Trader Joes in Washington state. I was going to buy them on line but shipping made them more expensive than buying them local.

My favorite is "Unjury". They have Protein Powder in flavors such as chocolate, vanilla, strawberry sorbet, chicken Soup, etc. It tastes really good too! To get in Protein when you're in the clear liquid phase I recommend Isopure plus zero carb Protein Drink. They come in 12 oz. bottles, have 40mg protein, and come in flavors such as Alpine Punch, blue raspberry, green melon, etc. You can get Unjury at "unjury.com" and the isopure at GNC.com. My surgery is scheduled for Jan. 23rd. Good Luck!!

I am in love with the Isopure no carb bottled waters. They come in about 12 different fruit flavor and are ready-made. You can get them at GNC or online. They are pricey ($45 for a case

I tried the Isopure and they left a after tast only a slever could love. Dont get me wrong I have some in my fridge and I will drink them after surgery but I am still searching for something without that kind of after tast.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
