I did and your taste changes what you like now will gross you out later and you don't 10 packs of stuff you can't even look at :/ I have containers of protein (Cookies and cream, chocolate fudge, and French vanilla) at $30 a pop and I HATE THEM lol. Save the money and buy what you like.

SO TRUE... i got stuck with some I now hate!! But have found the Costco ones to be ok.... I will drink an Atkins when I am at work and need one cause it's the only one our cafe' stocks. (coffee one is wonderful!)

I liked the chocolate and mocha flavored ones pre-op. I'm now 11 days post and would rather not drink either. It's not that they taste bad. I just like dairy products very cold. Now that I have to sip it takes me much longer to drink anything so my shake warms up pretty quickly and I don't care for it over ice. I am petrified of protein powders. I had protein chicken broth and a grape flavored protein drink in the hospital. I didn't like the subtle taste of sulfer nor the smell. It protein powder reminds me of when I got sick in the hospital 2 days after surgery. I'm sure it's all in my head. I guess I just prefer to eat my protein.

I was wondering about these. My doc said they didn't have enough Protein but honestly I can't stand others I have tried; body fortress, pure protein, nectar....

The taste and texture grosses me out.

I figure some type of protein is better than none.

Yes that's how I feel. I have tried the Atkins in an effort to get some protein in. I'm on soft foods now and I bought some of the Atkins bars yesterday- haven't tried them yet. I'm just trying to figure out what works for me.
