Some GNC's will let you sample before you buy or they will let you bring it back if you hate it after you try it.  My favorite is the Isopure bottles but they are kind-of expensive.  There is also New-Whey where you can get 40 grams in 3.1 ozs. They come in what looks like a test tube.  I also have Amplify and it isn't too bad.  Dr. Snyder is very highly thought of so you are good hands.  I just got mine 12/20 and it took me while about a week to get over the hump.  They also repaired a huge hiatal hernia when they did my band so that  (and my age) may have had something to with my slow bounce back.  I just to do as well as I did in my youth when I get down.  I have read where some people were back at work in 3 days so everyone is different.  Feel free to PM me or respond to this about any specific questions you may.  Something they don't usually suggest is little digital timer to make sure you get your liquids in after surgery.  A friend who had the bypass by Dr. Snyder told me about that tip.  Have some ice packs ready that really helped with pain around the port area after.  A pillow to ride home with between you and seat belt.  Let me know if you more questions I will tell you what I know.  ' Good Luck, MileHigh

I had surgery with Dr. Chae in December.  He's great!
