Hello, wanted to ask what protien shakes you guys like best. I've been drinking the GNC whey Protein 120 calories & 20g of protein. At first it tasted ok. But now its to the point I hate it. I added a piece of banana to it and it was great!!!(not sure if I'm even allowed to do so) So what flavor do you drink? Why do u like it? I hate drinks that have an after taste! Any recommendations???? And also fyi I found sugar free crush strawberry, grape, Orange, pineapple & squirt & Dr.pepper packets. Just like crystal light but better!!! 5 calories & sugar free ;-) (bought them at dollar general)

I like the Cookies n creme pure Protein Shakes and the chocolate gnc lean shake 25. I liked nectar Cookies and creme and mint cookie preop but they taste different now.

I found the sugar free packs at dollar general. Our store didn't have pineapple or dr pepper:-( I did get grape, orange and strawberry. They are very good.

I haven't tried those yet. I saw a review on YouTube from melting mama. I liked click but have to wait until I can have caffeine again.

Can't wait to get to the dollar store now! I like GNC total lean chocolate Peanut Butter. It's not as sweet as others. And oh yeah! shakes in Cookies and cream. Tastes like ice cream. They have it online and lots of gas stations.

I was wondering if the chocolate peanut butter was good. I made chocolate Protein Shakes with PB2 peanut butter in them preop. Haven't tried them post op. I will have to watch when they come on sale at GNC.

I wrote this in my clear liquid phase after surgery. Since I could add Protein back in, they don't taste as good. Now the Swiss chocolate is wonderful! They usually do a bogo.

Thanks. I like the swiss chocolate. I can always just add a little PB2. I'll have to keep checking the website for the bogo.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
