Pre-Op liquid diet STINKS!!!

I'm on day 4 of my liquid diet and  am DYING!!  My doctor has me on bariatric advantage meal replacement powder and it is horrible.  I may have to find something similar and switch.  I can handle 9 more days of this.  Any suggestions on a better tasting protein??????

I'm on day 7 and i have been sooo hungry I'm on the HMR 800 shakes and there not bad ,,, but I'm still struggling.. but i only have two more day that is what i keep telling myself .. i have lost almost 10 pounds... so just hang in  there try the slim fast i hear that is good  ...

I also am on a 2 week high protein diet.  I had to get mine from the dr. it is little packets that have 15 grams of protein each some are 1 pt. and some are 2 but I have to have a total of 10 pts. each day.  I am on day number 9 at day 7 I had lost almost 10 lbs.  had to go in for a product check they called it but I know it was to see if I was sticking to the program.  MOst of the food is not to bad there are different flavors like pudding, jello, different kinds of soup and soy snacks.  I have been to scared to even lick my fingers while I was cooking for the family.  I do not want to do any thing that can cause my surgery to be postponed or canceled.  Surgery is only 4 days away.  I have to be at the hospital at 5:30 a.m. surgery at 7:30 a.m. the hospital is 50 miles away so we will leave by 4:00 a.m. so as to allow plenty of time to get there.  We are unfamiliar with the town.
Good luck to all. 
I will pray that IKE fizzles out.  I have a brother in Hawthorne Fl  which is between Jacksonville and Gainesville.

We are getting close.  Sept 9.   If you need to be on a clear liquid the last day, try Isopure, 40 grams protein, 0 carbs.  GNC
or vitamin stores only.
We wrote to one another before, Good luck!  I am waiting to hear for sure that hurricane Ike does not have a bearing on my surgery.   Robyn

Also the EAdvantage carb control shakes from Walmart are not bad but they only have 17 grams protein.

Hang in there dear! I'm on day 12 and it does get easier.  I was on the bariatrix advantage too and switched to Champion nutrition Pure Whey protein stack.  It tastes much better, not gritty like the BA. It's much cheaper too, I got it at Vitalady.
I also made broth from scratch and life is MUCH better! I've had one little slip while I was making the broth I ate a few pieces of the chicken, felt so guilty I won't be doing that again!
I never thought I could have this much self discipline, but I do and YOU CAN DO THIS TOO! I've lost 16 pounds so far, that's so motivating!! Best of luck!

Quick don't die!  Help is on the way.  Atkins Advantage is abt 20 grams of protein and tastes pretty good.  Zoic 21 protein,  EAS advantEdge 17 grams protein 2 net carbs, and for the clear protein days try Isopure, 40 grams protein, O carbs, 20 oz bottle. Isopure is $3-4  I like grape frost, but it comes in other flavors too!  If you need more suggestions, let me know.

I can not find ISOPure where do you get it???

Isopure is available at GNC, Vitamin World or health and nutrition stores.  The drink is not bad.  It also comes in a powder.

I am on day 15 of liquid, I use variety as a game, I have been soooo blessed I use Slim fast low carb (really yummy) Atkins advantage (pretty darn good) EAS a little watery for me but I still use it UNJURY is the best (ordered from the internet) I have lost 21 LBS !!! but started at 320, still having trouble drining water but working on it. My surgery is Wednesday my dream was to get below 300 by wednesday. Shopping for food Target has the best prices and walgreens. I look at what I used to spend on lunch and spend it on healthy protein ......have not been hungry..... This is silly my favorites are SF popcycles and SF jello with vanilla protein powder in it. The UNJURY chicken sour is to die for if you are a chicken broth person. Hang in there, try all of these untill you find what you like.

God bless Bobbi
