NurseTAB 65 Posted August 16, 2012 I was looking online today for Protein Drinks and shakes that I will need after surgery. Was wanting some input from everyone on what they have liked best? I found these drinks called Isopure and they look pretty good but haven't heard if they are good or not. Please anyone and everyone what have you liked>?

moffie 16 Posted August 17, 2012 Try "Oh Yeah" ready to drink! 32g Protein and 4-6 carbs. I've tried so many but these are my favorites! They have a website but Vitamin Shoppe has singles in their stores. VS website has them cheaper than the oh yeah website! Good luck! 2 T bonz and jenneliza reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBdoodle 483 Posted August 20, 2012 I started with Isopure Low Carb Protein Shake whick was good. I switched to another brand (soory forgot the name) but it was cheaper than the Isopure. The Isopure tasted better (dutch chocolate). Stay away form the Protein Shots the are totally discusting !!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LosingItForMe2011 320 Posted September 10, 2012 You'll get a lot of opinions on shakes here for sure. The best bet is to keep trying them yourself until you find a few that you really like. Tastebuds seem to change quite a bit after surgery and what you like now you may not after. Lots of online stores sell samples so you don't have to buy a big tub not knowing if you'd like it. I've traded samples of my Protein powders with other folks who had the surgery or were having it so we could all try different ones. My current favorites are Pure Protein chocolate powder and Syntrax Mint chocolate cookie (tastes like melted mint chocolate chip ice cream) I also add flavorings to my chocolate shake to change it up a bit. You can mix in a spoonful of SF pudding mix of any flavor, use natural Peanut Butter, SF Torani syrups, cappella drops, SF extracts etc. I love the capella drops You can get them online as well. HOpe you find some you like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My program requires One bottle of Isopure Zero carb Protein Drink everyday post surgery. I think most of them taste really horrible BUT, I do like the green apple and one other one. So, I'm just gonna suck it up and drink one a day until I can start eating regular protien. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey Molly, Isopure is expensive (about $3-$4 per bottle), but the good thing is you can buy one bottle at a time to see what you like without being stuck with a case of something.
