question....
hi holly,
i just drink mine straight from the vile. it's quick and easy. i usually drink about half of it in the morning, and then the other half in the evening. oh, and i like mine better at room temperature because it isn't as thick. i sort of do it like a shot, and then i "chase" it with my water.
i am going to see my surgeon and my nutritionist today (my 3 month, just a little late), and i will double check with them and let you know. i did take the vial with me to the support group meeting with the nutritionist on tuesday night, and he agreed that it was a great quick way to get in protein.
have a great groundhog's day!

I just glup 1/2 down at a time. Takes about 2 glups so its pretty quick. You can chase it with something if you want but I don't bother usually. I have read where lots of people mix them in water and stuff and not sure its worth it I mean its over in a couple gulps and isn't that the point of these lolol. I also try not to drink after them for about 30 mins ( 15 at least ) so I don't wash them through my system so fast. I put them in the frig when I first got them and by the time I went to drink them they were so thick they barely came out lol so now I just leave them at room temp.
Good luck! Enjoy!

Hi Karen,
www.dpsnutrition.com They have it in grape, orange and fruit punch. The grape isn't too bad....you drink it so fast that you really don't get a chance to taste it!! It costs $32 for a case (that includes shipping). I just ordered the fruit punch, don't know what it tastes like yet. I don't like orange so I know I wouldn't even consider trying it!
Good luck and let me know what you think!

Thank you Holly for the information. I am going to order some and I'll let you know what I think of it. Do you ever use protein bars? The ones I use have 30 gm of protein and only 1 carb but they do have 290 calories. I usually eat 1/2 for lunch and the other half as a snack. I have a 35 gm protein drink for breakfast. It's called Pure Protein and my favorite is chocolate swirl. Have a great day Karen - I just have to get my profile up and running! I just love this board.
