Jacqueline K 93 Posted June 14, 2013 I have. The vanilla is what I tried. I quickly got tired of them. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tina727 48 Posted June 14, 2013 awesome! we started to stock up on them, then I thought I would ask opinions first before we bought too many! so far we just have chocolate and strawberry. good to hear though thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustJenn 542 Posted June 14, 2013 I like them but costco premier has more Protein per container than Atkins, but I still buy these for the variety. BUT I would no stock up.... I did and your taste changes what you like now will gross you out later and you don't 10 packs of stuff you can't even look at :/ I have containers of Protein (Cookies and cream, chocolate fudge, and French vanilla) at $30 a pop and I HATE THEM lol. Save the money and buy what you like. Surgery date 7/25/12 2 shyanne and Anniesmom12 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will drink an Atkins when I am at work and need one cause it's the only one our cafe' stocks. (coffee one is wonderful!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sweetohiohoney 5 Posted June 16, 2013 I liked the chocolate and mocha flavored ones pre-op. I'm now 11 days post and would rather not drink either. It's not that they taste bad. I just like dairy products very cold. Now that I have to sip it takes me much longer to drink anything so my shake warms up pretty quickly and I don't care for it over ice. I am petrified of Protein powders. I had protein chicken broth and a grape flavored Protein Drink in the hospital. I didn't like the subtle taste of sulfer nor the smell. It Protein Powder reminds me of when I got sick in the hospital 2 days after surgery. I'm sure it's all in my head. I guess I just prefer to eat my protein.

Amanda R 56 Posted June 16, 2013 I was wondering about these. My doc said they didn't have enough Protein but honestly I can't stand others I have tried; body fortress, pure Protein, nectar.... The taste and texture grosses me out. I figure some type of protein is better than none. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm on soft foods now and I bought some of the Atkins bars yesterday- haven't tried them yet. I'm just trying to figure out what works for me.
