I really like the premiere vanilla hakes from SAMs club sometimes I add some caramel or coconut flavoring to change it up !

How are you mixing them? My husband bought me a little blender that is made just for shakes and smoothies. Somehow they taste better when they are blended really well and the texture is better.

If you are allowed I would try putting in sugar free syrups too or even fruit.

Also the nurse told me most Protein products taste better when they are very cold or frozen. You could try that and see if you like it.

If you have a support group in person you might see if you can sell the rest of it to someone too.

I'm struggling too. I got chocolate truffle and kiwi strawberry of Syntrax nectar. Soooo gross. And I tried adding the unflavored to broth. Forget it. Even the smell grosses me out.

I'm hoping once it's not the only thing I'm "eating" I can still use them to supplement as needed because .... Yeah I have a ton. I bought them online and 2 pounds was the smallest size. Grrr. I can tolerate them but it's definitely making it harder right now to drink 60g worth of that crap.

I use Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard whey. So far I've tried Extreme Milk chocolate and Rocky Road. I mix them with light vanilla soy milk and I really like them. My kids drink them, too. I buy it from Amazon.< /p>

I have a Protein shake to start most every day. Primarily I use unjury chocolate Splendor, skim milk and ice. To change it up I add banana, PB2, or Torani sugar free Salted Carmel Syrup. I also use Chike coffee Protein Powder. Chike mixed with chocolate Splendor makes a great Mocha Flavor.

I rarely have a premodern shake but when I do it is Premier Chocolate or Vanilla

Oooh! Have you tried the Syntrax Nectar shakes? No carbs and 23 gms Protein per serving. You can get the sample pack at http://www.mybariatricpantry.com/SYNTRAX_NECTAR_PROTEIN_POWDER_SAMPLES_p/nectar-sample.htm. Seriously, thank god I found these, because I hated all the other vanilla/chocolate/strawberry "milky" type shakes. These are more fruit juice. I love the grape and lemon tea (yes! Iced tea protein shakes!)

I cannot tolerate any whey Protein Shake. I have found a shake called rockin refuel. 12 oz 30g Protein 12 carbs. I have this everyday for Breakfast it is a milk based but lactose free shake. I buy it at the Giant and it is in the dairy aisle.

I like rockin refuel as well.

Maybe this is just a rant, but I hate my Protein shakes. I spent all of this money on the shakes at the hospital told me I had to get. They are absolutely disgusting. Make me wanna vomit. Spend $$$$$ and it's wasted. No trial packs available. Just BAM here's this disgusting "latte" stuff

Ok I feel better.

I've looked into powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes and have heard good reviews. Any ideas there?

I was so excited to finally be able to start my Protein Shakes after ten days of clear liquid and they SUCK.cry me a river I know.

I ordered samples from http://www.nashuanutrition.com/store/protein-powders/protein-powder-samples-1-serving.html

They are $1.95 each.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
