I need a good tasting protein shake



Recommended Posts

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?

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.

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.

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 :)

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!

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...

Ive tried Chike, EAS, Gatorade, some Wal-Mart brand, and Isopure. Yuck...I just ordered some samples from Vitalady.com. I hope I can find one with those. :)

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.

I have a really hard time with the shakes too!! So I am trying to get Protein other ways. Do you like cottage cheese? I made the Peanut Butter balls, made the injury chicken broth but mixed it in potatoes, scrambled and egg (I'm in soft faze). Have you tried these things? It may help! :)

I'm 3 mths out. Don't like cottage cheese. :( after all the Soup I had after surgery I could go without seeing it ever again. I just need something to supplement my meals so I don't go for the things I shouldn't have. :)

Isopure banana cream was one of the few I could tolerate.

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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
