SandeeD 363 Posted February 18, 2014 I tried the Grape Frost today and the taste cannot be described...it's just that bad to me, but I choked it down. I bought a six pack of the little bottles and I'm going to drink them because I will not waste my money. 1 Aunt GG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CurvyCakes 269 Posted February 18, 2014 Noor omg yes I thought it was just me but I thought the grape tasted and smelled like a nasty burp when gunk comes up with it. The apple melon was tolerable but still wasn't good to me. I didn't like the coconut either. All 3 I tried had a horrible after taste. 40 grams of Protein for one bottle is great but apple melon so far is the only one I can FORCE myself to drink. I plan to try the nectar pink grapefruit and lemonade this week as they have received raving reviews. 2 Aunt GG and SandeeD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdmitchell 7 Posted February 18, 2014 I have tried all the flavones and cannot tolerate the taste or smell! Made me sick even when I tried to dilute them.... Good luck 1 Aunt GG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aunt GG 43 Posted February 18, 2014 Thanks everyone! I am just looking for a different flavor. I am already sick of the shakes. I think they are all pretty yucky. But I am gagging them down since I know it is only temporary. SF Jello is my new best friend at the moment. And I will try adding the syrups and flavorings. Great suggestions! Many Thanks to all of you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roo101769 742 Posted February 18, 2014 I absolutely hate to admit this but...My BFF bought me a bunch of these for my birthday which was a few days before my surgery. He bought one of every flavor he could find, I think there were 8 or ten overall. I drank half a punch and some of an orange and threw the rest out. I did hold on to them for months thinking I would drink them eventually, but I just couldn't do it. For the record my friend had his surgery in December and he can't stand the Isopure either! Everyone has different tastes... 1 Aunt GG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
belunos 93 Posted February 18, 2014 I never realized how palatable the thick shakes were until I had to deal with Isopure and Nectars. God awful the whole lot of clear Proteins, but there's a special place in hell for isopure! 2 Aunt GG and SandeeD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lazyi 1 Posted February 18, 2014 I tried them early after my Gastric Sleeve surgery and I did not like them. I still drink Premier Potein shakes. They are delicious. I saw an advertisement on this site "Insure Nutrition". They specialize in getting your health insurance to cover your nutritional supplements. Has anyone tried them and are they legit? 1 BigGirlPanties reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shockley2589 4 Posted February 18, 2014 I tried the Isopure unflavored Protein podwer and that too is aweful! When they say unflavored I think they mean it is not vanilla but to me it has a flavor and a smell. I tried it every way possible and just couldn't stand it. I now make my own using a vanilla protein podwer (can't remember the brand) which is 30g per scoop. I like to mix it with a cup of low sugar almond milk and a Lil ice. 1 Aunt GG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unbesleeveable 110 Posted February 18, 2014 Although I do not think that they have the best aftertaste, I have tried them with 10oz of water(cutting the taste) and adding 2 squirts of liquid crystal light...I like them MUCH better now. (I've been trying them pre op so that I know what I am in for next week) 1 Aunt GG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BestYet2Come 97 Posted February 19, 2014 (edited) The Clear Liquids ones are AWEFUL. I had a very hard time getting them down. I probably have 12 bottles (grape flavor) left, which I would be happy to give away to anyone in the CT/NYC area. The least bad was the coconut one, but it also has a horrible after taste (no matter what you mix them with!).; surprisingly, the flavorless Isopure Protein Powder is good. On a side note, Isopure is a very reputable company and its Protein products are supposedly very pure. Edited February 19, 2014 by BestYet2Come Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ziggypbang 272 Posted February 19, 2014 I only tried the grape, but BLECCCHHHH! I definitely prefer Syntrax Nectar flavors, especially the pink grapefruit and iced tea flavors. I also mix flavors a bit, and add a bit of crystal light at times, like lemon and coconut. They are my go-to Protein Shakes for daytime. For Breakfast I live the Atkins RTF Cafe Caramel! I hear Syntax's Cappuccino is great, but I would have to blend it with milk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaime_Boston 44 Posted February 19, 2014 I keep recommending my shake to everyone! Numedica Slim Fit 26g Protein Naturalhealinghouse.com I brought this to my dr and he gave me a thumbs up for usage. Love this stuff. The Dutch Choc doesn't taste terrible either! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
