Try sample pack to see what you like. I can only tolerate unflavored in Vitamin Water, broth, etc.

Isopure is great and they have several flavors. But any Protein Drink that is whey isolate would work. I have vanilla whey isolate and mix a teaspoon of sugar free berry Metamucil and a couple squirts of Mio, add Water and ice and blend it to a milk shake. It's pretty yummy. :-)

There are so many options.

Please learn from my mistakes - don't go buy a whole lot of one brand before surgery. Your taste buds WILL change after surgery, and the powder you love right now will make you nauseous at the thought of it post op. find some that work now an d after surgery from a Vitamin shop that will let you try before you buy.

I always keep vanilla on standby because I can make it whatever I want. Usually blend it with a combo of plain Greek yogurt, skim milk and frozen fruit. Ends up like a milkshake consistency. And like 30g protein!

Whomever said buy sample packs is right on! Unjury and Syntrax both have sample packs, I'd have em on hand and ready for post-op. taste is a very strange thing. I personally thought Isopure was like drinking acid flavored with cat urine, but some people like it!

GNC sells sample pack of their Protein light powder. I tried all favors and settled for vanilla bean with few drops of peach Water Enhancer :)
