Protein drinks? What's best?

I am having LAP RNY on 3/11 with Dr. Chua..I was wondering if the low carb (DR. Atkins and slimfast low carb ) drinks are a good protein drink? I know they are low in sugar and high in protein 20g. If anyone can offer food/ drink ideas especially anything that I can get ahead of time to prepare when I am home initially.. I can be emailed at [email protected] Thanks

Tracy- When I was immediately post-op, I drank a lot of Sugar Free Chocolate Carnation Instant Breakfasts. I would mix 12 fl. oz. of 1% milk with 2 packets of the mix. If my memory serves me correctly, there's like 20 grams of protein in one of those puppies. Also, I really don't concern myself a whole lot with the whole low-carb thing. The surgery that I've had, and the you're about to have will be more than sufficient to provide an adequate weight loss, provided we follow the rules. I don't eat sugar, I don't eat fatty foods, and when I'm full, I stop eating. I also drink a TON of water a day. Good luck! Josh
