I bought the Isopure clear Protein drinks and drink on them all day. I Water them down. For a meal I like the Matrix kind. I mix with almond milk. Taste like a malt but not as thick. Yummy.

My favorite is EAS Advant Edge carb control chocolate fudge flavor it comes already mixed; I can not tolerate the mess you have to mix up yourself.

I drank the premier Protein Shakes from SAMs club they taste good are low in carbs and 30 grams of Protein per shake . They come in boxes of 16 I think and they are inexpensive. There is a coupon at SAMs club this week thru July 21st for 4 dollars off and I think they are around 14.99 a case. Also at GNC their brand of Protein powder Cookies n cream and banana taste good also and they have a special sometimes. Buy one get one. Buy the shaker container with the little metal ball to mix it good. Now after your procedure milk like products like the premiere may be hard to get down. But give it some time you will be able to drink them again.

I had pressure in my chest, too after surgery a week though. I was told its the hematoma caused in surgery that was between my pancreas and stomach. Also I read on other threads that's its gas. Either case tell ur doc. Hang in there , it does get better.

The premier is good. Not a big fan of the chocolate, it's a little watery in taste, to me.

I agree but..the key is the high amount of Protein with the low amount of carbs which for me was a key factor in getting my weight down.

Can u recommend a high Protein Shake that isn't milk based? I could tolerate the premiere for about a week before my lactose problem kicked in.

Muscle Milk.... Lactose/milk free and good

      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.
