I need to find a replacement for Premier Protien Shakes



Recommended Posts

Premier Nutrition went a pulled a Coca Cola formula switch and the new shakes taste HORRIBLE. I USED to like them because they were smooth and rich in chocolate taste and ready to drink.

Now I need a replacement shake, I would like something that is creamy and smooth and ready to drink. I would like to stay around the 30 grms mark if possible.

Any suggestions?

I use GNC amplified wheybolic Protein. 3 scoops are 60 grams of protein. I divde them in three shakes. They are one of the best Proteins that I have found so far..Hopefully that helps ya..

Thank you I am hopping to find a pre made one like the Premier shakes as I don't have a lot of time in the morning and no way to mix one at work.

Oh no! Thankfully I stocked up when I went to Cosco last time. I don't have many left though. : (

Please take the time to call Premier, their phone number is on the back of each can/box. If enough people complain we can get them to fix it!

I like muscle milk light RTD but it's only 20 grams not 30. It is sweeter than Premeire though. I still have my old box of Premeire. It would suck to buy a new box and have them taste awful. I will have to taste them in the store. costco is 100 miles from my house so I have to know if I like it.

My daughter had gastric bypass and she likes Oh Yeah Protein drinks. They are RTD too. You'd probably have to order them online. If you have GNC at least you could taste one though.

Try Isopure smoothie: Orange/berry, peach, or pomegrate/berry. It's 16oz and 32 grams of Protein.< /p>

I heard Isopure Is good as well and you can get the gold card from GNC and save 20% to 25%.on all purchases...in store its only $10 dollard ol line its $15,but it does save a lot.....they have isopure in 5 different flavors,,,or go to Unjury I heard theres is always good...I drink muscle milk,its pretty good a lil strong...you get it muscle milk-strong...lol...just kidding but it is really good...you should give it a try...

EAS makes quite a few different RTD shakes. They are pricey though. I have found coupons for them and they are often on sale. But they just can't compare cost-wise to Premier.

Also I know everyone is different (different surgeon's different guidelines, etc.) but my surgeon wants all WLS patients OFF shakes by 6 weeks post-op. I can almost always get my 70-ish grams of Protein from food, no shakes. I do on occassion grab a shake if I'm headed out the door and don't have time for a proper "meal", but that is something you might consider...weaning off the shakes. Just food for thought. ;)

The Bolthouse Farms ones taste --AMAZING--, but they've got a good bit of sugar (albeit organic cane sugar, but still)

I figure it's worth it in the long run though, since I'll actually DRINK these. They have 'em at Target. Try one!

GOOD NEWS! Premier Nutrition chocolate shakes have been changed (either again, or back to the original formula) they're no longer thick, they're great!

I had been drinking the vanilla but my last box was chunky and not a drinkable consistency. I had to return the box and costco no longer carries vanilla (bummer) I've never been able to try the strawberry but Premier Nutrition's website says it's out there. At least the chocolate is good again!

That's great news! What's the expiration date of your non-thick box so that I can find them at my costco? I hated those thick ones.

Sorry it took me so long!

The expiration date on my current box is 9/26/2012. And, more good news- the Vanilla shakes are back at Costco!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
