two_boysmom 20 Posted March 10, 2013 Haven't tried it yet but will be. Thanks for the advice. I've tried many Protein shakes and I hate them all so far. You are so in my thoughts. I'm 12 days out and have tried my fair share of Protein. Still searching for something that I like...urgh..lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SMO 193 Posted March 10, 2013 Bariatric Advantage tastes metallic to me, too. I thought I would not be able to have surgery if I had to drink BA. Then I tasted unjury and felt I could live with it. I think it may be the Vitamins in BA that give it that taste. Thanks all for the advice. Yes I've tried muscle milk and I like it but for some reason most of the Protein I've tried all taste like metal to me. Oh lord don't ask me why I just said metal. It just has a weird after taste that makes me nauseous. I guess I have to keep trying until I find one I like. I sure don't want to be bald. No way! I'm curious to try the unflavored in coffee. I love coffee so this might be it. Looking forward to try this. Thanks again all. I really appreciate your comments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
isajck 229 Posted March 10, 2013 I wondered if they just wanted me to buy from there.. They sell Celebrate, Bariatric Advantage and unjury brands This is your answer. Personally I stopped buying anything from my nutritionist/hospital store after a discussion/disagreement concerning Vitamins. In the end, you have to do what works for you, not what your nutritionist sells. Keep trying until you find a shake/drink that you can tolerate. Hit GNC or other such stores and see what they offer in the way of samples/individual sizes or jump online and order some sample packs. That way you can try without wasting large amounts of money. Here are a couple of links but there are more out there. http://www.mybariatricpantry.com/SYNTRAX_NECTAR_PROTEIN_POWDER_SAMPLES_p/nectar-sample.htm http://www.chikenutrition.com/chike-variety-pack.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nanalisa46 11 Posted March 10, 2013 Have you tried unflavored or vanilla Protein with the Crystal Light fruit Punch? I've found it's. a nice change from just plain favors. You can use Water or milk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
two_boysmom 20 Posted March 11, 2013 I tried the chocolate muscle milk today and it's tolerable. I think I will stick with this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleeping beauty 7 Posted March 11, 2013 Ok so I tried SYNTAX vanilla bean. It has 23g of Protein. I mixed it with skim milk which has 11 g per cup. It taste pretty good. I think my problem was in texture. The thickness in the shake. Using the powder with skim milk made it thinner and more tolerable to drink. I think I'm gonna stick to this for now. Not bad for 33 g in one cup. I can do this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
