You can get a pretty decent sample pack from Bariatric Eating - Protein, Vitamins, Gastric Bypass & Lap Band Info, Post-op recipes, and Help that has a bunch of different brands in it.

Yikes. Kinda pricey to me just to sample them. Have you tried any of them and which do you recommend?

Well, they've got two different packages. One of them has a book, the other doesn't.

I liked the nectar Fuzzy Navel, Matrix chocolate, IDS Multi-Pro Vanilla-Cinnamon (almost too sweet for me, though), and whey Gourmet Peanut Butter chocolate (best by far, IMO). You can get all those except the IDS at Netrition.com - The Internet's Premier Nutrition Superstore! (the nectar and Matrix are under the Syntrax brand, and the whey Gourmet is under the PVL brand).

I love cinnamon spice. Every morning I have my fav Protein shake:

approx 8.5 oz. vanilla micellar milk (1/2 the carton) = 20 g pro

1 scoop vanilla unjury powder = 20 g pro

1/2 scoop low-carb chai tea (from bariatriceating.com)

4-5 ice cubes

blend well

enjoy!

I also like the whey Gourmet chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Powder mixed w/ 1/2 carton of chocolate micellar milk.

I also mix a scoop of vanilla Unjury powder w/ 1 vanilla 60 cal sugar free Jello pudding, a T or so of canned pumpkin, a splenda (to taste), & some cinnamon... tastes (to me) like pumpkin pie filling. yum!

Just play around w/the flavors you enjoy! Best wishes!

Have you tried the Whey Gourmet Artic Frappe whatever? I am a Starbucks feind so this might work if it tastes good.

I've been wanting to, but I haven't wanted to buy a whole canister of it unless I've tried it, and I can't find samples of it anywhere. I have tried their milk chocolate flavor, though, and it tastes like cardboard. The orange creamsicle flavor is nearly as bad.

Well shoot me a PM if you ever do and let me know. Come January when I get my band it is going to be VERY hard to not pull through that drive through Starbucks!

Starbucks doesn't have to be bad! They've got a lot of stuff that you can get non-fat and sugar-free, although I usually just get a vanilla latte with 2% milk and regular Syrup. As long as you work it into your daily calories, you'll be fine! And the lattes actually have a decent amount of Protein, too.

I'll have to try one of those. I love fraps. Not much of a "hot" coffe drinker. I like mine cold. Do they have the fraps in non fat and sugar free?

I looked them up on their website, and they've got what they call Frapuccino Lights, which have fewer calories (no whipped cream, for one) than the regular. A grande mocha FL has 140 calories, compared to 380 for the regular mocha frap. In the summer, I also like getting their iced coffee with vanilla Syrup and a little cream or milk in it. It's not bad on calories.

You can also get their lattes iced, too, if you don't like hot ones.

      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.

      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!!
