Fit2btied 122 Posted September 22, 2013 I liked Premier before surgery but now it makes me nauseous. Mixing it with Decaf coffee helps' date=' but it still gives me diarrhea.[/quote'] Eeekk that's not good. They should have a seminar once a month where you can try sample sizes of all the different brands. I guess the issue is that people seem to have different taste buds after surgery.

SkinnyScrapper 57 Posted September 22, 2013 While in my weight loss journey I tried almost every Protein powder out there. They were nothing but disgusting. The thickness' date=' the after taste, and just plain nastiness doesnt sit we'll with me.

Beadgirl19 0 Posted September 22, 2013 I am one week past my surgery date, and I have one week left of Clear Liquids. I didn't mind the Isopure premixed clear drinks before the surgery, but now I can't stand the taste. I have also tried Jay Robb flavorless Protein Powder. I liked it before surgery, but like the Isopure, I now find it not tasting very well. I have yet to try egg Protein powder. I have been drinking beef broth, vegetable broth and chicken broth. I can't wait until week three when I can have full liquids. I really like the EAS milk chocolate premixed shakes and the Isopure dutch chocolate powder mix. I still have one week to go.

chosen1 15 Posted September 22, 2013 I got sick of all the vanilla/chock/strawberry milk/whey based powders & shakes; finally tried Syntrax Nectar, sold at The Vitamin Shop, there are 12 flavors, my favs are lemon tea & strawberry.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wifeofdes 33 Posted September 22, 2013 I personally prefer Bariatric Advantage Orange Cream. Great taste, no after taste. I use skim milk instead of Water.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chelsi 107 Posted September 22, 2013 i hated the Bariatric Advantage that my doctor recommended. i found Premier Protein ready to drink shakes to be fantastic. especially now after surgery they're so easy. i also use pure Protein chocolate which is great. it doesn't have that overly sweet/fake protein taste i felt the bariatric advantage had. and recently i found body fortress chocolate Peanut Butter which is AMAZING. i actually was craving some crunch today so i made a shake with Water and froze it for about two hours. it was almost like a slushy consistency and it was amazing. i also love the Isopure, it's refreshing when the Protein Shakes feel too thick going down. good luck!

Peggy 53 69 Posted September 22, 2013 Everything I liked before urgery, including the chewable vitamins, I couldn't stand after surgery. Thank goodness for the unflavored Unjury. I could mix it into what I could tolerate...and yogurt.... Saved me during the first 2 weeks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobheist 85 Posted September 22, 2013 I really like the Isopure powder (not the pre-made fruity flavored ones in the glass bottles) - I use one scoop of the carb free creamy vanilla and blend it with ice, Decaf coffee and a bit of sugar-free pudding mix or Torani Syrup.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fit2btied 122 Posted September 22, 2013 So it's safe to say I need to wait until after surgery to give these a try? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NtvTxn 1,262 Posted September 23, 2013 I took three or four back to GNC and my husband ended up using one or two others. All of them grossed me out!!! I gave up and got the Protein bullets from GNC. I'd gotten a sample in my goodie bag when I was discharged from Forest Park.....let me assure you, it wasn't good either, but it was 3.5 ounces!!! Easy compared to a shake that seemed to keep "growing" as I had to keep adding ice to make it drinkable and the three days after discharge that I did finish one.....it literally took HOURS!!!!! The little bullet, I'd hold my nose and take a few sips in the morning, again at noon and finish it up in the evening. 43 grams of Protein, all I had to do was rinse my mouth out after my sips. Just like taking medicine when I was a kid. LOL I never lost my hair (I also took Biotin) and my labs were always good. Good luck!!!!! Protein is important, I was determined to find something I could get down! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
