Sojourner 2,446 Posted June 23, 2013 Everyone has different tastes and preferences. It is not uncommon to have to try several different Protein shake options before discovering one which you can actually like and not just tolerate. That said, GNC has a very liberal return policy for their products. So to me, purchasing from them is really no risk. I use their Wheybolic extreme powder, but only 1.5 scoops per shake, as I am not using it for body building. The 1.5 scoop is 30 g of Protein. To vary the taste and add some protein I sometimes add some PB2, though that is likely not a good idea pre op without getting permission from your medical team. Best wishes for a successful journey... 1 CHEZNOEL reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stept04 465 Posted June 23, 2013 I use Bariactric Advantage Meal Replacement shakes(vanilla) and nectar (fuzzy navel) they are both really good with no after taste and not to sweet I can't stand stuff that's to sweet. I get them both online at BariactricAdvantage.com ~~~Stephanie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joy332 25 Posted June 23, 2013 Tastes definitely vary. I bought Ensure high Protein Shakes after someone said they liked them and I had to throw them all out--to me they had a metallic aftertaste. Yuck. I like the premixed Premier Protein shakes (30 grams protein) and the Jay Robb Protein powders, but I like it sweet so you may not like what I like... Good luck with the pre-op diet!

downysoft 51 Posted June 23, 2013 I have been drinking the EAS advantage plus chocolate and it is pretty good. I have no problem with the taste. It is the prepared drink. Comes in a four pack Christy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
