Can't seem to find a good protein drink



Recommended Posts

I cant stand Protein shakes, they're soooooo sickeningly sweet, thick and gluggy, just disgusting.

Here, the pre op diet is usually Optifast. I didnt mind Optifast, that was thin and milky and tasted OK to me _ I had the vanilla one, and you could then flavour it with coffee etc.

Post Op, I actually dont really see a need for shakes but I do like a drinkeable Breakfast.< /p>

What I do is make an egg flip. I blend a raw egg, skim milk and vanilla and sprinkle with nutmeg. Its delicious and completely natural and about 17 grams of Protein. I know raw eggs freak some people out but I've never had an issue, never had food poisoning, etc.

I think the Inspire line by Bariatric Eating is very, very good.

I'd steer clear of more than a serving of soy per day; soy Protein isolate, in particular, is linked to various health issues.

today I went into 7-eleven, saw they had RTD Muscle Milk. I picked two up. one vanilla creme and one chocolate.

the vanilla creme was delicious. tasted like a melted down vanilla milk shake. haven't opened the chocolate yet.

i could definitely see drinking this as meal supplement and being satisfied. so yummy

You might want to check out the calories and fat on the RTD Muscle Milk. I saw them this week when I was looking for something at the conveneince store and they had like 250 calories. Muscle Milk makes a lower calorie version which I though tasted fine.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
