sleeve_sister 110 Posted January 28, 2013 I didn't like the shakes before surgery and I definatly don't after. However, I really need to get more Protein into my diet. Anyone know of shakes that are tasty? I'm super picky...please help! Isn't there a site that I can buy samples? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joatsaint 2,814 Posted January 28, 2013 I bought the EAS low carb dutch chocolate shakes (4 for $5 at Wal-mart), they taste like chocolate milk, but were too watery for me, so I bought a bag of powdered chocolate Meal Replacement and put one scoop of the mix in the shake. Made it taste like a thick chocolate milkshake. You might try something similar. Be sure and get one of the shaker bottles with the spring in it. Best $7 I have ever spent. 1 sleeve_sister reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stef 264 Posted January 29, 2013 Try the Premier Protein shakes. Available at costco, SAMS Club, Walmart and sometimes even on Amazon. I have been living on their chocolate shakes post-op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loseinit 24 Posted January 29, 2013 I use the Premier Protein from Sams too. I do know if you call different companies they'll send you some samples to try. I like the Syntrax Nectar kind too. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MSCoastRPh 11 Posted January 29, 2013 Two suggestions -Chike has a website that you can order a variety pack of their flavors from-expensive but they taste very good! Also, my Protein of choice is amplified whey protein chocolate from GNC. 3 scoops gives you 60 gms of protein for only 290 cal. I can do 20gms in 4 oz of Water and it's only 96 cal! Taste very good also! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jar312 22 Posted January 29, 2013 I can never just do a plain shake. But I do like the click mocha one, I got it on Amazon. My other 2favorites... I take 1 scoop vanilla Protein Shake put about 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries and a cup of Water and blend.. Or I will do a school of chocolate w ice cubes, a cup of water and a spoon full of peanut butter... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Prairiegirl 5 Posted January 29, 2013 I have had lots of luck with Unjury. I like the unflavored with milk and instant coffee, and the chocolate is really good too. They offer a sample pack on their website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

doreen70 268 Posted January 30, 2013 I don't like any of them. Dietician said to get over it and start drinking. They all have a weird smell, and that grossed me out. She had me try with a straw. Helps a little. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
