I really like the "Premier Protein" brand that costco carries. It is pre-made, has awesome Protein and low carbs/fat.

Now that I have had my first fill, I use Bariatric Advantage in both the cho and vanilla. They are super thick so they keep my full for a loooong time.

Hope this helps!

I use Bariatric Advantage Vanilla. I mix it in the blender with ice, skim milk and banana flavoring (but you could use what ever flavoring you like). It comes out like a shake and is very good. Try it....you'll like it. Good luck.:sifone:

I use EAS whey chocolate Protein (Sam's Club) powder and mix it with milk and half a banana for Breakfast. For my mid-meals, I do the readymade EAS chocolate drinks because they're lower in calories.

The best I can say about any of these shakes is that they're 'okay' and don't make me barf. Sure, I'd rather have a cheeseburger and fries, but I just drink 'em down and tell myself to suck it up...it's the Protein that's important. :sifone:

INSPIRE Proteins from bariatriceating.com. I especially like the Dutch chocolate Cake and Peanut Butter Cookie flavors. (The chocolate is AWESOME mixed with almond milk.)

Muscle Milk Light work for me

Also, I found mixing them yourself in a blender or magic bullet turns out better than buying premade. I also freeze cubes of milk and add to the blender to give it a more "milk shake" consistency. If you need the convenience of premade the Believe shakes are very good from baratriceating.com and the carnation instant breakfast no suger added are good, but they do have a higher calorie count per grams of Protein than other ready to drink options.

My fav Protein shakes:

1 scoop chocolate Unjury

1 cup milk

2 or 3 milk cubes

1/4 frozen bannan

1 tb Peanut Butter

~ 350 cal/33 gr protein

1 scoop vanilla unjury

1/2 cup yogurt

1/2 cup diet V8 splash (or other low cal juice)'

1/4 frozen banana

3 frozen strawberries

1/4 cup frozen mangos

calories probably around 350 and protein 30ish. I haven't really calculated this one b/c I really just throw the fruit in the blender. If you don't have a good blender you may want to let the fruit thaw a bit before blending.
