Do you not like your Protein shakes?

I've been using Jay Robb whey Protein powder with Stevia and I really like it.

It smooth and not gritty at all. It has 25 grams of Protein in each serving and if you use skim milk that will add another 8 grams of protein.

I add to it Torani sugar free syrups made with Splenda. They come in many, many flavors.

You can buy Jay Robb at Whole Foods, directly from the company or Amazon.< /p>

You can buy Torani sugar free syrups from the company directly or if you have World Market in your area they carry them too.

Good luck in finding something you like.

You can also use unflavored Protein Powder in many different foods like Greek Yogurt, sugar free pudding, even mashed potatoes. Be creative. It mixes better with cold foods. I used Unjury and it worked well for me. I would also encourage you to try several types of shakes, you might hit on one that works.

At 5 weeks out I was getting more Protein from food with Protein added then with just shakes. I got an unflavored whey protein powder and added it to most things I ate. I added it to hot tea and Soups. I added chocolate protein to my cream of wheat. I got a lot of protein from greek yogurt, cottage cheese and refried Beans at 5 weeks out also. I also enjoy Muscle Milk Light (chocolate) as a source of protein. I'll have one at night if I calculate my numbers and I'm deficient in calories or protein.

I also use Muscle Milk light but if you don't like mike I suggest Syntrax Nectar, there have several flavors but I love the fuzzy navel fruit flavored. I blend it with ice and make a smoothie.

I too hate shakes. Have you tried getting cottage cheese? When I was stage one my diet was mostly Chiobani 100 yogurt, cottage cheese, creamed Soup and milk. I could not choke down the whey products.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
