I like the Chocolate Caramel whey protein shake mix. I also go the Cookies & Cream, but I don't care for that as much. I'll drink it when I need to just to use it up, though. I got some of the little protein puddings... vanilla and banana. Haven't tried regular chocolate and the guy at the store preferred them the least so I didn't try them yet.

I also got some Any Whey.... the flavorless powdered protein that can be added to foods. Everyone seems to have different tastes and your tastes can change after surgery, so I wouldn't invest too much in any one thing.

For a while, I found all the sweetness of chocolate, vanilla, etc. and even all the fruity flavors to be overwhelming. I felt like I was defeating my purpose because everything I was eating was sweet and sugary and flavored as such! Hard to think "Lose weight" when I was consuming all puddings and shake-like concoctions! That's what I was trying to get away from!

I was a big FF chicken broth fan. Sometimes I'd kick in a splash of shoyu for added flavor. SF Jell-o is also my friend. Hubby makes our own frozen treats using SF Jell-o, SF Kool Aid, and Splenda that are literally guilt free and count toward fluid intake.... and cheaper to make than the SF name brand.

Hmmm... what was the question?

Woohoo, Nahealani!!!!!!! You're on your way!!!!!! Isn't it exciting?! Keep us posted!!!!
