I am having surgery November 5th so I am looking for shakes with a good amount of Protein, not a big fan of milk, seen the Kellogg to go Breakfast shake mixes wondering if anyone has tried them? How about adding ice and blending it? Also I bought the PB2 powder and was thinking about adding it... Are these things I can do once I get home from the hospital?

Please help...

I like them but my nut says they have too many carbs. After surgery for a 6-12 oz Protein supplement:

Protein: 20-25 grams

Total Carbs: 5 grams

Total fat: 3 grams

I did use them before surgery though.

I highly recommend the Isopure Zero Calorie shakes. They have some great flavors for mixing with Water like pineapple orange banana and mango peach. These are really worth looking into. Another one that a lot of people like without milk would be some of the fruitier nectar brand powders.< /p>

I agree on the Isopure. I bought the premade black tea with lemon and mix it half and half with regular iced tea. It tastes like the Lipton iced tea packets.

Grocery store Breakfast shakes are pure crap. You would be better off drinking plain milk.

I did not care for the flavor of any of the whey Proteins so I have no suggestions for them. I enjoyed the Spiru-tien shakes.< /p>

I found Premiere Protein Shakes offered the most Protein for the fewest calories. They are pre-made and available at Sam's Club and costco. I began using them prior to surgery. I stopped them after my one year checkup with my bariatric doctor, at their recommendation.

My surgery is scheduled for 11/10. I'm on week 2 of my 2 week diet. Just bought quite a few Atkins shakes from Wally - World (Walmart). They're on sale now 6 for the price of 4. I believe they have 1g of Carbs.

I bought mine on Vitamin shoppes website. Free shipping and a coupon brought the case down to $39.95

It is easier for me to drink than thick Protein shakes.

I drink a half of one a day, sometimes one each day. Depending on my Protein intake. Some days I'm not interested in eating much

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
