Best Protein Shake Ever



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on Oct. 15th & I was beginning to think I would just starve until I could finally eat real food. The Protein shake requirement was killing me because everything tasted terrible.

Today I went to the health food store & asked what they recommended: About Time Protein shakes. They were $3 each, so I thought I'd try a couple. The first one I tried was Birthday Cake flavor. It tasted just like the birthday cake milkshakes I got at the convenience shop.

I'm so glad I found this brand...now I can get in my Protein without too much hassle.

They have other flavors, too, which I haven't tried yet, but I will. I also mixed it with milk (lactaid) instead of Water. I didn't add anything else.

And I don't work for them, either. I was just so excited to find something I liked that meets all the requirements. They have samples on their website:

Thanks for the info! I ordered a couple sample packs (had to get the birthday cake) for $3.99 each and they offer FREE shipping, which is nice.

I have been trying to find new Protein drinks and powders to try. I like the Isopure powders, but no ready to invest in pounds of it just yet. Ive been getting alot of sample packs. I just got my nectar sample and matrix sample today. I started on the Protein powder brand from Walmart (cant remember the name) that was $14 to $20, its was way to foamy and SO GLAD its all gone now... Thanks again!

I've used try about time' date=' they're good and not too sweet, kinda pricey though.[/quote']

Yes, that's true, but I'm saving so much money on food since I don't ready out or buy junk, I figure it's worth the price. I found it at my local health food store & it seems more reasonable than the online prices.

I enjoy the GNC Total Lean products. The ready made shakes are delicious, especially the dark chocolate. Also have vanilla & strawberry in ready made shakes. Other varieties available in powder.

These have no chalky after taste.

What other flavors should I sample? I don't want to do the normal chocolate and vanilla. Has anyone tried the mocha mint?

I recently tried the banana. It was good. I use birthday cake the most. Didn't like the strawberry. I haven't tried any of the chocolate kinds.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
