premier protein drinks from Sams
I am day 9. I am using Premier ready made shakes from Sams. I have no problem drinking them and they taste pretty good. I sip for about 2 hours until finished. They each have 30g protein so by doing 2x a day I am getting g my 60g required. I measured out 1 oz shots first 4 days then went to 2oz. I have also used sugar free pudding and chicken broth in between. No hunger. No nausea no light headed feelings. In a few days I progress to mushies. I do recommend them. I couldn't find the powder so I paid extra for premade. Good luck
thats mainly what i was gearing up for. i have alot of powder ones, but realized that when they are blended they tend to get air and i was worried about that right after surgery. so i was actually looking for something premade that i know i will get my protein in with a limited amount of liquid. I bought a box of 12 today of the chocolate and the vanilla. Congrats on your surgery and may the losing begin! Happy New Year!
Hi I am very new to this forum. I got my GSV 12/29/14. I am one week out and I am down 8#'s. I just started on full liquids yesterday. My main goal is to ensure I get in 60-80 gms of protein a day and get my 64 oz of fluids a day. The only way I've been able to get it is to drink 2 premier proteins a day. I can only drink them very cold and very slow. I will continue exploring this site and reading other blogs. I have found it to be very helpful. I know compliance is the key to my success. I don't want to do great and then back slide. I think staying connected over the long hall will be the answer. Good luck and see you on the losers bench.

I had surgery 7 weeks ago (down 42lbs) and have tried every protein option I can find. I bought a case of chocolate and a case of vanilla of this stuff from Costco. The chocolate is bearable very cold. The vanilla is not that good. I can't take drinking this stuff everyday so I would suggest you alternate this with other options.
I definitely don't recommend buying too much. It costs about $25 per box, and you may toss a bunch of it.
Good luck!
