Question Atkins Shakes

Hi,
I'm pre-op by about a week. I'm looking at food choices. I compared SlimFast Optima with Atkins shakes and it seems that Atkins is better. I like the taste of atkins better too. Slim Fast has 5 grams of fat....atkins has 9
slim fast has 220 mgs of sodium...atkins has 170 SF has 24 carbs...atkins has 5. SF has 10g protein...atkins has 20.

It seems to me that if you can tolerate it, atkins would be better for you.

Anyone know any different?

Different strokes for different folks mimime. I LOVE the Atkins. Not gritty, no heavy feeling, and have never dumped! Many different fokks have their fav's.. I just love the vanilla powder Atkin's shakes. You should try mixing it with Sunrise Orange Juice from Crystal Light.. tastes just like an Orange Julius!
