Hi!

I started my weight loss journey on November 28, 2012, and my Gastric sleeve surgery is coming up on March 18th! I start my High Protein/Low Carbohydrate Pre-Surgical liquid Diet on Monday March 11, and thought I've done my research on Protein shakes, any suggestions to best ones would be GREAT! Also, any suggestion on chewable vitamins/supplements would be great too! Thank you!!!

P.S: Check out my weight loss blog at http://laideejae.blogspot.com!

i think i may have had my last protein shake for a long while...ive had it.

however, here are my 2 cents on the subject: i think the Premeir protein ready-to-drink shakes are the best. it is available at costco in vanilla and chocolate. both flavors are really good.

I cannot stand isopure-- too gritty and expensive.

For powders, i think "Body by Vi" has the best powder. it mixes easily and doesnt have that protein aftertaste. However, Body by Vi has to be bought from a distributor- you can google it. hope this helps.

Thank you so much!!!!

I drank Atkins advantage before my pre-op diet. However, when it was time for my pre-op, I could have not milk based products. My drinks had to be made with Water. I had some Syntrax nectar on hand, which helped out tremendously and was pretty good despite the fact they were mixed with water.

I have had the Nectar with almond milk as well. My NUT gave me a couple of samples of unjury, chocolate and Vanilla. They were both good and mixed easily...again both with water. So I am sure they will be even more delicious in milk.

I have also had Pure Protein....it's okay. I've had Lean Body, Designer whey, Isopure and Cytosport.

What I have come to like about the Isopure Zero Carb is that when I add a crystal light packet it tastes much better and it has to be very chilled. My favs are the Alpine Punch and Mango Peach, I think it is.

I ordered the Premiere when Amazon had the amazing sale, so I'm not sure how it tastes, but I hear great things.

Much success to you.
