Lisa, I use the Unjury Chocolate.  It has 20g of protein per scoop....after surgery I would use 2 scoops of Unjury to 8 oz of milk and that made 48 g of protein, then I also used a Profect Vial (they are advertised on this site and sold at Health Nutz)...for less than 3 oz you get 25 g of protein.  There is a new one at Helath Nutz in the same vial, can't remember the name, but it has 40 g of protein for 3 oz.  That was the only way I could get in my 60+ ounes of protein right after surgery.  That gave me 75g of protein and it took me all day to get it in with my 64 oz of water for the 1st 2 weeks after surgery.  Unjury order phone number:  800-517-5111. I will say that right after surgery, nothing really tasted good to me, so it was just sipping protein drinks or water or unsweetened decaf tea all day.  It is well worth it and you will feel great soon enough, I am so glad I had the surgery and have so much energy now!!

I really like the EAS shakes - especially the low carb ones with 17 grams of protein.  They are tasty - but I don't know how much one can consume post-op in a sitting.  Maybe this is one reason why I never seem to hear anyone talking about EAS shakes?
