Yup, it's tasty, but my NUT said no to it because it's more than 7g carbs. Are you okay with sucralose (Splenda is sucralose with some fillers)? If you are, see if you can get some of the Premier shakes from costco (and I hear Sam's Club carries them, too) They're tastier than most of the other ready to drink stuff, have 30g of Protein.< /p>

I do the Isopure ready to drink and they are aspartame free!

Are you only wanting to use prepared drinks? Because you have a lot more options of you buy Protein Powder. I like about time brand because they have very few ingredients and use stevia as the sweetener. Plus it's got 24 grams of protein! Mix it with milk and you're at over 30 in one meal. Good luck.

I actually currently use powder for my Breakfast shake 5 days a week (I'm not really close to my surgery yet, but I'm starting some changes to try and make things less impactful later). I do like to have some ready-to-drink hanging around, though, for those times when I'm really on the run. While I can and sometimes do use a shaker bottle to mix the powdered stuff, I really prefer to blend it with skim milk and half a banana or a little PB2 if I can.

Yea, I am allergic to the stuff too.I get bad headaches that wont go away from it. I use Body Fortress whey isolate and Six Star whey Isolate. Of course, those are Protein powders. I really am not a fan of any artificial sweeteners but I have to use one, I use Splenda. Luckily more and more companies are using Splenda instead of Aspertame. I bought some Dasani flavor drops for my Water, and Great Value brand sports drink flavoring as well. I also bought some Edy's fruit bars and Jello brand sugar- free jello for after my surgery, which is next Tuesday! Good luck I read labels all the time now.

I can only do aspartame sparingly so having it in my Protein Powder is a no-go. I stick with Jay Robb. 110 calories for 26 grams of high quality whey Protein isolate. Sweetened with stevia..Mixes easily by just stirring with a spoon. no grittiness. does not taste like feet.

      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!!
