Mary,
For protein shakes have you tried Unjury. This protein drink has 20 grams of protein, 3g carb per scoop. I personally love the vanilla. I use that with milk. Unjury has 3 flavors: Vanilla, Chocolate and Unflavored. I think their website is www.unjury.com. One of our post op support groups members buys it in bulk and sells it to whomever for a lower price. I am 1 1/2 weeks post op and doing very well. Hope this information helps you.
Take Care
Melissa

Hey Anne,
I got my date too...June 27th. I just had to write cuz I haven't seen any other nurses from Michigan on this site. I used to stop at Pinconning for cheese and beef jerky every year on my way up to our cottage in the U.P. Ahhh, memories.

I have been roaming through this Obesity.com site for a while and just found this site-its great. Today I found out my surgery will be Aug 4th. Am excited, but nervous. Have about 15 pounds to loose yet-and now will have a new surgeon, as Dr. Lane at BTC in Ypsi is leaving. New surgeon Dr., Poplawski-looks like an okay guy from what I read. I'll try to catch this site more often==look forward to learning lots from you all!

gee i feel bad for you.... when i had my surgury nine years ago they just said you are a diet failure and you are approved. i didnt have to diet before surury. however it was a culture shock to not be able to eat after surg i went banannas missing food. prob a good thing to try now. hang in there trust me it is worth it
