hi all! getting ready for sleeve on 27th and i am looking for any new ideas for the liquid phase for my Protein powders. i really like iced drinks where i blend the ice really fine like a slush. i tried it with my coffee and Protein powder and it got really frothy any ideas? thanks in advance!

I really like the ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrates, especially while on clear liquids. Each packet has 15 grams of protein. They gave them to me while I was in the hospital recovering. I used them over crushed ice, undiluted initially. You can also drink them diluted with water.

Have you tried the Syntrax nectar?? They are about the only Protein powders I can stomach. I have never tried the slushy, so not sure if they will froth, but I did do them over lots of crushed ice. One of the reasons I like them so much is because they are fruit flavors & more like "juice" ... cherry, grape, apple, grapefruit, lemonade, iced tea, etc. You might want to give them a try.

Just a warning/heads up -- just because you love really cold drinks pre-op doesn't mean you will post-op. Right after surgery you may have to try different temperatures to see what works.

I have developed a taste for Lemonade post surgery. Never liked it before, but now I love a glass of cold diet Lemonade. I like the Chick-Fil-A version and I make it at home. It's takes time but it's so delicious. I use 2-3 lemons and spends, lots of ice and put it in the magic bullet. Makes a nice slushy drink with zero calories.

Thanks y'all! I am waiting on my syntax nectar samples to come in. I ordered them last week! I hope my tastes don't change too much after surgery but if they do these ideas will at least get me through my pre-op diet! Most of the "smoothie" textures I am not a fan of cause hey are too thick. Yuck. I have already been drinking skim milk for years so I am not used to that full fat whole

Milk smoothie texture.
