Hi

Have you heard of isopure? It is a flavored clear liquid that has a lot of Protein in it. I have read many sleepers use it to get their protein in. I'm getting my sleeve Tuesday & am getting super scared.

You can also get Isopure at the Vitamin Shoppe. It's pricey -- and frankly, I found it to be the wors thing I've tried to drink in my life (until I took the liquid pantoprazole the hospital sent home with me).

But some people tolerate it, so maybe buy a couple of flavors and see?

I use Premier Protein liquid protein drinks from Costco and really like them. Sometimes I put one in the blender with frozen fruit and they are really delicious. I also ordered Genepro unflavored protein powder to add to soups, purees and puddings. They both have 39g of protein a serving. Huge amount of protein!!

Best Wishes!
