I hate protein shakes :-(



Recommended Posts

I agree Unjury is the best I have tried so far. I have actually tried many. Jay Robb vanilla is pretty good too.

Yes so far it's the one I will get. Liked it better than anything else. Will have to try a couple others too.

I really enjoy the Atkins cafe caramel Protein shake. I also enjoy the nectar that is the roadside lemonaide flavor. I mix a scoop with 16 oz of Water and a packet of crystal light. It tastes really good!

I was the same way about Protein shakes, but now I love my atkins once so much, I have one a day...

Good luck with everything!

Doesn't the Atkins shakes have a lot of sugar?

Have u tried doing half a scoop of Protein and half a scoop of slim fast shake mix?

Is there a lot of sugar in the slim fast?

I don't think the Adkins ones have a lot of sugar. Not sure about slim fast. I tried a sample pack from Unjury online it is really good. Either no sugar or very little and I think 21grams of protien and 100 calories per scoop.

So far I've tried the vanilla Designer whey powder (icky by itself and not very sweet. I ended up adding some sugar free vanilla Syrup and it was better). I like the vanilla EAS powder better. I didn't need to add anything to it. I use Silk light soy milk and a few ice cubes in the blender.

Strangely, I really liked the premixed Designer Whey which is why I bought the powder. Atkins premade shakes taste okay: I've tried the strawberry and caramel cafe, both so-so, and the vanilla is my favorite. They only have 2 carbs and 15g Protein.< /p>

In half a scoop there is 5 grams. But even a quarter of a scoop is noticeable to me. I add it till it tastes a little better but never more than a half.

K...I'm going to let you girls in on a little secret! I'm 10 days post-op and had 60g of Protein yesterday. Syntrax makes amazing, heavenly protein power in a double stuffed cookie flavor among others. It tastes like a really unhealthy fattening oreo milkshake!! It's amazing and has been a savior!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
