juicyr3d 17 Posted June 23, 2012 Which Protein Drinks are not that bad? I can't seem to do it I hate this nasty Isopure powder I need to find a better one that I can bare Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iegal 460 Posted June 23, 2012 I didn't find much I liked. I used clear Isopure 40gm drinks from GNC. One a day at 4 bucks each was still less than my old fast food budget. If you want protien powder I suggest cuppacino. I look forward to drinking those...well at least they taste good. Glad you are trying to keep up your Protein up.

Musharooni 62 Posted June 23, 2012 Pre op I enjoyed the Muscle Milk Lights and EAS ready to drink. Post Op, I have enjoyed Unjury. I know netrition.com has a sample pack which is reasonable & allows you to try a variety of different brands. I was lucky & the Unjury my NUT recommended worked fine for me, but I have seen posts were others have not been very lucky with their shakes. Good luck & congratulations!!!

A New Life 4 Me 5 Posted June 23, 2012 Currently, I am using "Silk Milk (Vanilla)," in which I add the Carnation Breakfast Essentials & then I add a scoop of the whey Protein Powder (Vanilla) from GNC. It makes a great drink and a good source of Protein.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sassygirl06 962 Posted June 23, 2012 I dont really like any of the powders. I can tollerate the pre mixed stuff better, but not much. I prefer just to buy the Protein shots(hate the taste too) but I can chug them down fast and my protein is done. 27 g a shot. good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't take a second swallow the pre mixed lean shake from GNC is not the best but, I can take more than one swallow. I heard about the Protein Shots I wanted to try it but, I also seen somewhere on this forum where they didn't really have anything good to say about the protein shots so I avoided it but, I'm trying my best to find something I can tolerate I just got some protein Jello from GNC it has 21 or 23 grams of protein I'm gonna try that too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fallenangel2904 494 Posted June 24, 2012 I've heard good things about the Syntrax Nectar flavors- I've yet to try them (I'm pre op) but I'm gonna order a sample pack to see what I like but I hear they are good. I like sweet things (some people have said they are too sweet) but I think I'll like it. I've tried the optimum nutrition gold standard before and it wasn't so bad. Good luck! I've been researching Protein like crazy too to find something good! They also told me to do Isopure but from what I've heard its gross so I don't think I'll be trying it- maybe the clear ones but not the shakes.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
