Shakes

I'm having a hard time drinking the Protein Shakes. I know Protein is the most important nutrient I need during this process. What flavor of shake mix did you all in what drink to get it down?

Hi,

I hear you loud and clear on that one. My hospital has a sort of bariatric grocery for us, and they sell the nectar brand. Of that, for the milk-based ones, I liked the chocolate truffle and strawberry mousse. For the water-based ones, I liked the fuzzy navel. As a point of reference, I HATE sweets, so even these get to me, but I can choke them down, which is saying something. :-)

What shakes have you tried? What is it tat you don't like about them?

Here are a few that I like.

unjury -- I really like their chocolate Splendor & chicken Soup favors (they offer a sample pack so you can try all their flavors)

Syntrax Nectar® -- these are thinner & fruitier flavors (they also offer a sample pack)

Premier Protein -- these are convenient and are available at Sam's Club & costco

Cytosport whey RTD -- these taste really good, and pack a wopping 32g of Protein in only 130 calories.

I second the Premier Protein brand ... tastes like chocolate milk to me.

And I like "Oh Yeah" Protein Shakes in banana, strawberry, Cookies and cream.

I dont tolerate the traditional Protein Shakes either so from the beginning I have used the Isopure no carb ready to drink bottles. They have 40gms of Protein and are clear. They come in quite a few favors and aren't very sweet at all which is a big plus for me. They are a little pricey but it's totally worth it and GNC has a buy one get one sale often so I stock up on them!

My favorite morning shake is the pure protien, silk coconut, ice, spoon of Peanut Butter smooth or chunky, blend it and go.

I use the EAS low carb vanilla. I am addicted to Starbucks. So if you love coffee like I do. I will empty one of the containers into the blender, open a packet of instant coffee, throw some ice cubes in there... blend and wa la you have a vanilla frapiccino. If you like your coffee hot just nuke it in the microwave and you will have a vanilla latte! I bought some sugar free carmel and pumpkin spice. So I am going to have a pumpkin spice latte in the morning or a carmel latte. All without the calories and the fat.

I like the EAS low carb, and I also have a Cookies n cream powder at work, I am not sure what the brand is. I do know that I dont like the Jay Rob. I have heard a lot about unjury, I heard it is good.
