Can you recommend a good protein shake powder please?



Recommended Posts

Hi,

Was wondering if you could suggest some brands of tasty Protein powder for me and I'll try to find them on sale here in England.

Getting filled again after 18 months of going it alone. Maintained till this Jan then fell off the wagon and gained 2 stone. Time to try again and try harder this time.

Thanks for your help,

Yvonne

I love nectar (Syntrax). It comes in many fruit flavors, mixes with Water and is not as "heavy" as the ones that mix with milk.

Good Luck:thumbup:

I drink the Unjury (mostly chocolate) every day. It's been the best tasting I have found. I use to drink the Atkins shakes way back when but I can't even gag them down anymore. Pretty much just tastes like chocolate milk. Good start to the day.

I only use it first thing in the morning. I bought the Muscle Milk powder at costco in vanilla and I put a scoop in my coffee in the morning. I really like it. It is 130 calories and 26 grams of Protein. I might get chocolate next time. I can not eat in the morning, so this works well. Sometimes, I also can't drink the whole cup of coffee. Just stops going down. I eat the rest of my protein in real food. Hugs......

This isn't a powder, and not sure if it's available in the U.K., but at my support meeting this week, some "veterans" said Sam's has a ready-made Protein Shake called Premier that has 30 gm of Protein and 1 gm of sugar (they didn't mention calories). You can get it at premiernutrition.com (I just googled). Actually it might come in a powder too, not sure.

I use Unjury; the unflavored can be added to pudding, Jell-O, etc., and changes the texture a bit but not the flavor. The chocolate and vanilla shakes are much better than the whey protein I had bought before surgery.

if you are looking for an unflavored Protein that you can mix- beneprotein is good. I also use whole nectar (wholenectar.com) The calories are a little more that what my doc wanted but I cut the serving size in half and mix it with 10oz of milk and sf carniation instant Breakfast. I actually like this mixture better than the other Protein Shakes out there.

The Inspire Protein powders from bariatriceating.com are outstanding. I am not sure whether they ship overseas, but if they do, they're well worth the shipping fee.

I use Chike...it comes in 5 flavors - chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, banana and orange cream. You can mix it with Water or fat free milk. With Water, its only 180 calories and 28 grams of Protein. Its delicous. I have one everyday for breakfast, and sometimes in the evening for a snack.< /p>

You can order it online at Chike Nutrition - Best Tasting Meal Replacement shake. Guaranteed. Pour, shake, Drink & Go!. Right now they are offering samples of all the flavors with your order.

I like Muscle Milk lite and the Premier from Costso. The premier is premixed and so convenient to take to work etc.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
