Pre surgery I would've loved the berry and grape. Post not so much. Love the coconut one though. As for powders I like the Syntrax ones. You can buy a variety pack on Amazon. Lots of fruit flavors. Most powders aren't going to be completely clear. More suited for full liquid phase

I hated Bai, like Meatloaf, I too can do many things but I Won't Do THAT. And there sits an additional one on my fridge shelf, well I'M NOT TOUCHING IT. I like strawberry , I like lemon, but the combination smells and tastes like that red furniture oil Mama used when I was little, never ever even planned drinking that stuff. I also do like Ensure's Protein clearish waters. Less protein than shakes but still has sizable. Comes in fruit Punch and Blueberry pomegranate, about $6-7 in price for 4,I think. Do most of my shopping at Wally World so that's usually whose prices I quote.

I like Isopure infusions powder. it is 20g a scoop. there are a few flavors, but the citrus lemonade is my fave. I also drank Bone Broth following surgery. Pre-made bottled Premier Protein clear tropical punch is another fave, but I found that its was too sweet post-op so I would Water it down. I am going to find and try Syntrax and protein20 next. I have moved on to shakes now but I feel kind of blah after having an entire shake. I find that I tolerate Protein water the best right now.

I also liked the Premier Clear (20 grams of protein) prior, but found them too sweet after and had to Water them down. I also liked Swanson Sipping Bone Broths (9 grams of Protein and 45 calories) for a non-sweet option. For protein powders I use GENEPRO, it is a smaller scoop and seemed easier to blend without clumps into my Soups, broths and tea. Make sure and mix it into a cold/cool liquid and add to anything heated. I have also added it to sugar free Jello for protein jello shots.

Good luck!!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
