review of meal replacement protein shakes pt I

Oct 15, 2012

Today I ran a mock up of full liquids, tomorrow is softs then wed is full liquids again.

So the morning started with 12 oz of V8 then a vanilla flavored shake and a cup of coffee on the way to the office..
The V8 as always was fantastic, one of my favorite flavors, umami/savory. just a hint otherwise nice and thick and COLD!

at 10:00 am I had the orange creme shake

at 11:30 I had  a glass of Slim Bios Life Unicity orange flavored fiber
at 12:00 noon I had 1 chicken broth meal replacement protein drink.
at 12:30 I had 6 oz of zero greek yougurt with 1 oz of sugar free torani orange flavored syrup

at 2:30 I had the Iced Latte flavored MR protein drink and a prepared cup of strawberry jello

at 6:00 I had the chocolate MR shake

at 8:30 I had anothe chicken broth flavored Mr and a cup of orange jello

at 9:30 I'm going to have 2 TBLSP of metamucil.


All of todays MR shakes/drinks are Bariatric Advantage. I used a shaker cup for all the drinks except the chicken brooth. all shakes mixed nicely. at lunch time I mixed the chicken brooth in hot water and I was scared, it isn't pretty. eventually it disolved. my top three in order of preference is:
1 Iced Latte- very good flavors and by far the thickest most substantial.
2- chocolate-decent flavor, nice and thick
3- vanilla nice flavor with no weird after taste
4- orange creme, orange is my favorite flavor of most things, this wasn't very orange but the creme flavor was decent.
5 chicken brooth, really, that isn't what I would have guessed. not very impressive.

1st day is over. it really wasn't hard I never really got hungry and most of the time wjhen i did think about appetite, I was probably over full so I'll make some adjustments before wewdnesday.

tomorrow is softs and I have a menu planned out for it too.

OK, jacuzzi time and off to bed.
