Found out this afternoon, I will have my surgery Tuesday morning:thumbup:!!!!

What is the best tasting shake for post op diet?

I've been reading posts on this site for many months now, thanks to all that share information.

Doesn't your surgeon tell you which to drink? If not, you are LUCKY

We are supposed to have EAS Carb Advant EDGE or isopure from GNC, and one other one that is at a store on the other side of town so I don't remember it.

IMHO they all taste kind of icky. When I'm HUNGRY I want food, not sweet icky stuff. I haven't tried the isopure tho....it's just for post op.

OH I forgot! Good luck on your surgery! My date is 8/29!

There are several options out there and it comes down to which one you think tastes best. What one likes, another won't like. My advise is whichever one you pick make sure it's high in protein because you won't be getting a lot of calories in the beginning but you want to make sure you are getting in your protein requirements.

I really liked atkins advantage, variety and taste.:thumbup:

I liked Atkins Advantage too. I gagged on the EAS. From pre-surgery experience Slim Fast is pretty good but my surgeon does not allow Slim Fast (too much sugar).

I really like the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury. Very flavorful. The unflavored is great to add to your food also, so far I have not been able to taste it when added to Soups, Jello or pudding.

The New whey Protein bullets also seem to be popular. They have 42 gms of protein per bullet, so you can split it over the day. Add it to your Crystal Light, it is good and not chalky.

Experiment with them, I liked and tolerated the unjury shakes until after surgery then well I became "allergic" to them, the doctor said it's not uncommon, so he changed me from whey Protein, to soy and now I am fine, I have unflavored unsweetened Protein powder from GNC at 25 grams of protein per scoop, I put that in my soups and it's pretty good.

I also have EAS Advantage chocolate, and add ice and skim milk and a shot of Hersey's sugar free Chocolate syrup and it's very good. Wish Wal-Mart had more flavors.

Try different ones before surgery.

Good luck

l hated the unjury..the smell made me vomit never mind the taste...l love ISOPURE

you can buy the eas at any walgreen pharmacy, just ask them to order them for you, an also at stop&shop in the nutrion section, the are gonna be expensive at gnc two for twenty dollars for a four pack. but stop&shop has them for five dollars eack so i get four packs for twentythree dollars, but the lasttime i bought them at walgreens they were seven dollars for four.just thought i let you know.good luck on your journey.sil

also i add some skim milk to the drink it,s makes a world of difference, because when i first bought them htey were chalky an paste tasting.i said to myself i spent money for this nasty stuff, add sim milk an bam, i,m use to it now drink one everytime i get on my bike to workout,before or after.
