So I begin my pure op diet next Tuesday and was wondering how good are the premier protein shakes because I bought them for my two weeks diet prior to surgery.Any advice will be appreciate it.

I loved these and stocked up on them big time even for after surgery.  I drank 4 a day pre - op with no issues,  but my new pouch hates them and they now make me sick.  I'm only a month post-op,  and the vets on the site say it's not uncommon to develop an aversion to them after surgery,  and for some people they can drink them again after a few months.  

Good luck!

Thank you so much hopefully my pouch will agree with them afterwards.

I love them. I did not drink them prior to my surgery.

I'm not a fan. They're not whey protein isolate anymore and they had a lot of quality control issues a year ago - I kept getting cases that were all clumped up and curdled inside. I stick to protein powder with unsweetened almond milk now.

Saludos Maria,

I love the vanilla and strawberry, but can't stand the chocolate.  I did get a case of chocolate curdled and that is probably why.  These are the only shakes since the rest of proteins I get from food.

I am not a chocolate lover anyways so I stick to the vanilla now powders I like the lean vanilla cream protein powder from GNC but I will try these and hopefully they will work for me thanks e everyone.

It's all very individual. Many shakes (and powders) I cannot tolerate. I would buy small until you're sure how you will react.
