Yes, I've tried the Total Lean bottled shakes (4pk) in the strawberry & Cream flavor and really liked them. Only problem was that I bought a ton, and my taste buds changed after surgery. They were still good, just wish I had bought some different flavors to mix-it up a little.

My nutritionist approved this shake as well.

I really liked these, better than any other shake I tried and I tried A LOT! I drank them pre-op and post-op. Luckily I didnt buy too many but they were the only ones that didnt make me gag. Unfortunately I have lots of Premiere shakes sitting in my fridge. I thought I would be drinking them for a lot longer than I needed. Oh well, they are there for on-the-go meals. But yes, I dug the Lean Protein ones. vanilla was is favorite.

Would you guys say the Protein Powder is as good (healthy wise) as the ready to drink kind?

GNC will take them back with receipt.

Any product they sell that you don't like.

These are my favorite as well, I have to drink 2 a day to hit 90-100 grams of Protein a day. They have quite a few calories, but if the other things you are eating are lean you should be able to get 700 calories a day. My nutritionist approved them as well. :-). I am 5 weeks out.

The GNC Lean shakes were all I could tolerate right after my surgery as well. I still get them from time to time as a change. I am really hooked on Bariatric Advantages chocolate powder...27 grams of Protein per shake. Bariatric Advantage powder is a little expensive to me but its the only protein drink/shake that I truly like. This was the protein product that my surgeon recommended.

I decided to hold on to them, but thanks. Plus I have no idea where my receipt is. :(

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
