I've never tried the powders, just the premade shakes.

I think the New Directions brand chocolate is the best. They sell it at my surgeon's office. The other flavors arent as good, but I really like the chocolate.

the chocolate Protein powder from target is pretty good. the brand is market pantry. The vanilla tastes like crap though.

I was asking the same question myself today. I am so sick of the Protein powder I have been using, it was so hard to hide the taste of it. So this morning I stopped by one of our local nutrition stores and they actually will mix up samples to try. I found one I really like that is s'mores flavor and tastes good just mixed with Water.

The products are a little more expensive than what I bought at the grocery store health market, but it's a lot cheaper than buying something, hating it and then throwing it away like I had been doing.

Hopefully you can find a place that does samples because everyone's taste buds are different. Good luck!

Personally, I like the Slim Fast high Protein vanilla shake, but I am weird.

I think the best tasting Protein powder is a brand called "Carb Solutions." Years ago it used to be sold at Walmart and places like that, but now the only place that I know of that sells it is Drugstore.com. It is a blend of Protein sources consisting of Soy Protein Isolate, Calcium Caseinate, Sodium Caseinate, whey Protein Isolate, and Dried Egg White.

I only drink ready-to-drink shakes now, but up until about two years ago I used the powders. I would take this and blend it with some whey powder, which was cheaper. It would give a good flavor to the mix.

You can see the vanilla at:

And the chocolate is at:

I personally like Body Fortress Cookies & cream, Body Fortress Choc.& PB and six Star Choc. I compared them to Unjury. They do have SLIGHTLY higher fat & carbs, but lower sugars and higher protein!!!! Plus they are much easier to find (grocery store, Walmart etc) and MUCH cheaper! I am still pre op so the true test will be next week, when I am post op. See how they taste to me then...

I LOVE the Muscletech from Sams Club. It comes in chocolate or Vanilla. It can be made with skim milk, Water, hot, or cold. I have added it to cream of wheat, pudding for extra Protein. Also I have added half a pack of crystal light to the vanilla to change it up too. Lots and lots of versatility. The cost is VERY reasonable too.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
