Hello all. I'm scheduled for June 30 and I'm on day 4 of pre-op diet. Artificial sweeteners are a migraine trigger for me and I can't stand the taste of stevia. So...I'm having a hard time finding protein powders and drinks without anything artificial. I love Orgain (completely organic), but my nutritionist was hesitant because they are 255 calories each. I've tried Unjury ( the unflavored may be my only option), Nectar, Isopure, Muscle Milk, and Celebrate. Any suggestions?

Oh and I forgot the greek yogurt that I add to my shake! Having one right now and it's delicious!

Forsythia, yes I can have lean meat, eggs and low fat dairy, all the plain, greek yogurt I can eat broth, juices, Water.

Yes ok noticed there is no standard diet for any of is sleevers I wonder if they are testing groups and area to see what is the best diet

I know you said you hate the taste of stevia, and I thought that I did also. However, I tried a brand of all natural Protein powder called About Time yesterday and it was delicious. Comes in lots of flavors, I tried the Peanut Butter mixed w skim milk and it was amazing. You can get single packets on their website of most of the flavors. Good luck!

I agree! I ordered 4 of their sample packets: Birthday Cake (blech!), strawberry (good), Vanilla (okay) and banana (really tasty). The best part was that the balance of Stevia was perfect and I didn't need to add anything else. I buy mine off of Amazon because it's much less than buying directly from SDC.

Thanks! I just ordered some of the samples, too.

My nutritionist said that it is fine to drink double milk instead of protein shakes. She said to make double milk by adding powdered milk to skim milk.
