I think there is a food board that has lots of posts on this subject.

I don't do Protein drinks right now - totally burned out on them! Now I do Protein Bars for that boost.

Anyway, my opinion that the best Protein powder is Syntrax nectar. You can order a flavor sample pack for around $13 from the manufacturer - call their customer service. I think you can also order it on netrition.com

As far as premixed, I always drank the Premier Protein sold at costco. 180 calories, low carb and 30grams of protein!

The premier shakes from costco are good but only the chocolate IMHO =) However, if you have a smoothie King around you can get the strawberry or vanilla Gladiator Protein Powder and it is amazing. Plus it has 45 grams of Protein, 1 carb and 180 calories!! In the beginning of post op this was my protein savior. It is so hard to get in your protein during those 2 weeks after surgery..
