I like them but I have a friend who doesn't. To make it taste better she uses chocolate flavor, adds ice when she mixes and a splash of milk with the Water. Her version does taste pretty good to me.

I hated them too until I tweaked them. For vanilla, I add frozen strawberries, vanilla extract, stevia(sweetener), almond milk, ice and blend. For chocolate add 1/2 banana, vanila extract, almond milk, sweetener, ice and blend. They are a tasty Breakfast for me now. Before that, I could barely get them down. Do they count for your liquid intake? I never asked.

Are you using powder shakes? I cant stand the powder kind, I really like the ready to drink Premier Protein in chocolate, very good.

I hate them too. Luckily in the soft food phase I have been able to meet the low end of the target with help from powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken broth flavor. If I could get down the serving size of my meals, I would have no problem...

Protein drinks aren't the best thing I've ever had either, but it isn't forever. I just sucked it up and drank them.

Adding ice in the blender with them helps. I always used just Water with them. Sometimes I would drink a Muscle Milk Light or an EAS Advantage ready made shake. They are convenient.

The Syntrax Nectar Vanilla Bean Torte rocks. I used to add Mio in tangerine/orange for a creamsickle flavor or unsweentened cocoa powder to do chocolate (go light on the cocoa powder if you do this - it's really concentrated). Really good. Also, I find the Atkins Milk Chocolate ready-made shake to be pretty delish. 15 grams Protein and only 1 gram of sugar. 160 cals. Still drink one every day (almost 8 weeks out).

Yes, it does. So does the Cookies and cream. Even with Water as the mix.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
