misschatterbox 1 Posted March 25, 2013 Thanks everybody I don't like shakes in general so im already at a disadvantage. Im hoping the unflavored or chicken Soup is decent because im eating popsicles more than anything I need Protein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonRodolfo 1,416 Posted March 25, 2013 I've tried several brands of Protein Shakes and I've come to the conclusion that they all taste yucky when they're made with Water instead of milk. However, there is one from GNC called "Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60" that I think is my favorite. To me it tastes incredible when made with water (I've let others try it and they agree). It's a little pricey but might be worth a try. They let me sample some at the GNC where I bought it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twitch4thebitch 23 Posted March 25, 2013 I also had issues drinking the protien shakes pre op they made me so sick but I got through it and it was worth it. I will be 3 weeks post op Wednesday and I am down 39 lbs , starting weight Was 328lbs my goal is also 150lbs I also have pcos which I'm hoping my symptoms will lesson or go away all together after I lose tho weight. I also had high blood pressure pre op and now it's all okay and I no longer have to take medication for it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris R 217 Posted March 25, 2013 I like the Syntax Nectars too. I get them at Nashua Nutrition (available online). They sell single serving packs so you can try different flavors to find what you like. I like the chocolate truffle or the double stuffed (Oreo) mixed with 1 cup of milk. You can mix one scoop with 8-16 oz of either milk or Water. I've also mixed it with plain yogurt (1/4 scoop of a fruit flavor to 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt), and I add the unflavored one to strawberry smoothies.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caglefan69 37 Posted March 25, 2013 I loved the glucerna vanilla. To me it tasted like vanilla cake with icing. Its 15 g Protein and 180 cals. I drank it for 12 days and never got tired of it. I also drank strawberry slimfast and chocolate glucerna Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
misschatterbox 1 Posted March 25, 2013 I talked to my nutritionist and she told me to try making the shakes in the blender with ice and also said I can have a piece of meat a day which sounds so good right now dont know how much it can change the taste by using ice and a blender but at this point I have nothing to lose.
