Hot Dog! I Found It!

Today is my 6th day on my preop diet and I have been trying all of these different shakes. Well I think I found the one for me. It's called Lean Body, its 260 cal, 9 fat, 9 carb, 5 fiber, 0 sugars and 40 PROTEIN! all in one serving! Woohoo! It was so good, I loved it. It was 3.49 at the Vitamin Shoppe. So :D!!!!!!!

    That's great. The best protein shake is one you can drink day after day. If it makes you gag the nutritional value doesn't matter.

    I just ordered Pure Protein shakes which have 35 grams of protein and 160 calories. I was told to keep the shakes under 200, but every Dr. Is different!

I love "Oh Yeah" shakes too! (Ready to drink). Also found at Vitamin Shoppe. You can get little bottles or large and can try just one at a time or buy a case.

Hmmm... Those calories seem kind of high. I was told by my nut not to get anything over 200 calories. I'm sure it's fine pre-op, but post op those calories can really add up.

Is it $3.49 per shake and each shake is one meal? I think the calories sound a little high too, but you are sure getting a great amount of protein!! If it tastes good and you can get it down, then that's half the battle! I will be starting my pre-op diet in 3 days and I am always interested in hearing about things that people love and that work! Best wishes to you!!!

Where did u get it from

I just got the stuff call lean 1 from from smoothie king but I don't know if it good or not it's has 230 cal. For 8to 10 oz and the sugar is 11g. For a 8 to 10 oz can I get some feedback if that's good or not

So, it is a liquid not a powder, right?

I have thought about the calories and after surgery getting one in a day should not be bad, it will be over half my Protein needed in a days time so I'm good with that. I just hope I lkie is after surgery as much as I like it know.

I am not sure about this one because I was told to stay away from the Smoothy King. What I will say is that the Lean Body was recommended to me by my Nut actually everyone I hsave tried so far was on my can have list so. Good luck in your search for what is right for YOU!

It's a power it's good it was costly tho it was 42.00

@ b4youreyes - also keep in mind that the body can only absorb approx. 27 grams of Protein at a time. so you could probably drink it in two parts.

also i found having a Protein shake during pre-op (meal replacement) is best to have more nutrient values, i.e. Vitamin a, Vitamin D. it keeps you full longer and you're getting the nutrients of the missed meal. the protein shake with extremely high protein are geared me for extreme workouts...muscle repairing.
