GNC Lean shakes. I Like the Swiss chocolate the best. vanilla not bad either. I only do ready to drink. For me powders taste grainy so I like to just chill and pop the top! 25g per bottle and only 170 cals

I drink Body Fortress, in chocolate, vanilla, or strawberry. I find it mixes well. If I mix one scoop with 1 percent milk, and some greek yogurt, I get in 44 grams Protein, and about 330 calories. For me, one shake is enough for one meal and one snack.< /p>

Syntax nectar...tons of flavors but my favorites are apple, cherry and lemonade.

Syntrax matrix vanilla...I like it much better than the premier vanilla.< /p>

Muscle Milk...again, tons of flavors but I usually get cake batter, red velvet cake, vanilla or banana cream.

Garden Of Life Raw Protein chocolate and vanilla.

I also us Torani SF syrups or PB2 to add even more flavor variety.

I also added unjury unflavored powder to broths, bisques and cream Soups for a savory break from all the sweet shakes.

Not sleeved yet, but been trying drinks too. Premier I have found to be better than a couple of others I tried. Pure and ESA I have tried, Pure is a rank below Premier and ESA, Yuck !!

I am doing unflavored powder, 1 cup skim milk, strawberries (frozen), banana, all blended together. I do not add Water or ice, the frozen strawberries does the thickening. I also use frozen mixed fruit.< /p>

Someone on here told me about NOW she found on Amazon. I looked at it and can buy a 6 pk of flavorings, I remember choc, vanilla, rasp, caramel, irish creme, mixed with almond milk

Body Fortress Vanilla Creame is really good mixed with ice Water and MIO drops or Crystal Light. Make sure to buy the whey isolate to get pure protien that your body can uptake.

Kindle, the muscle milk, is that the regular or the light?

The regular. I don't think the light comes in all those flavors. I never really bothered counting calories and fat, so I was just looking at variety when making my purchase.

I prefer Protein powders:

unjury chocolate Splendor, Vanilla or strawberry Sorbet

Syntrax Nectors Fuzzy Navel, Apple

Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard - Rocky Road

I also add PB2, Chike coffee flavored Protein, frozen banana and Torani syrups to add additional variety

      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!!
