Right!!!

The rest of that stuff online is 2 high. I go 2 my local target or Walmart and compare the ingredients. I refuse 2 get broke off this Protein. Whole foods have sample packs of Protein for 79cent. I bought me a rubbermaid 2 QT bottle. I pour my Water in one to keep up with the amount. I put my Liquid Protein in the other. It helps me. I know when both bottles are gone, I know reach my protein and Water goals. I pour 4 waters in the little cups they give u in the hospital and 4 Proteins. That is the only way I can keep up with everything. I have 2 take the liquid out of the original bottles and measure them. It works for me.

I use the Isopure zero, 160 cals, 40g whey Protein, no carbs or sugars. Made with Splenda. I'm allergic to aspartame so I've had a big struggle finding sugar free stuff not made with that or stevia (feels like it leaves a layer of fat on my tongue). I get mine at Vitamin Shoppe and they sell individuals do you try the diff flavors before buying a whole case. Of course the case is cheaper but better to figure out what you like first.

I will be 4 weeks out tomorrow and I'm still on full liquids and I struggle still. I really hope that something changes' date=' I only have to get through until the 9th I hope before I move to purees. It seems like eternity.

I think I'm going to see if I can find some powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury samples. I have the unflavored that I have been adding to things. I went back to Isopure to help add more Protein to my day and the Icy Orange was rough. I bought some more Orange MIO hoping it will help.

Good Luck I'm still struggling. I drank Pure Protein 100% whey Frosty chocolate from Target for 7 months pre-approval for Breakfast and lunch and I loved them. Not sure what happened after surgery, but my taste buds changed and it's grueling to get my shakes in now.[/quote']

I have to agree the Isopure icy orange is the nastiest flavour. It has some weird undertaste.

I mostly drank Muscle Milk but also really liked some that I bought at Trader Joe's. It had 35 grams of Protein & tasted like chocolate milk to me. It comes in a can but I can't remember the name.

There is something in ispure that gets stuck in the back of my throat. Its more than an aftertaste. Its like the Protein sticks there. Totally disgusting.

I used almond milk mixed with butterscotch fat free and sugar free, mixed with vanilla whey Protein Shake, lol it's so good. Gives me all the Protein I need -and I taste I can stand. Almond milk has extra protein and the pudding is about 25 extra calories. I add two scoops of the protein power so all together it's about 60 grams of protein

      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.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      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!!
