Best Protein Powder

[Pnut&Bull 12]

Hey Everyone,

So I will be done with all my pre-op requirements on the 4th and hopefully my sleep study will come back negative so I can go see the surgeon.

Anyways, since I am so close I have been trying out Protein powders and have found one that tastes great, even if just tasting the powder, easily mixes with a spoon, comes in many different flavors and has 23 grams of protein, 0 carbs, 0 sugars, 0 cholesterol, 0 fats, 15 mg sodium and 40 mg potassium. I mix mine with Almond Milk :-)

The Protein Powder is Syntrax Nectar. I was able to make my own sample pack, 11 flavors either same or different, for $14.95 on www.bjsbariatric.com

They also have a container that keeps your shakes cold that has a storage part for more powder.

I like this kind of info. I'm only one week post op and I need ideas.

I love the Syntrax flavors. The only problem I've found with them is they do not mix terribly well with an ice and milk combo in the blender (I tried it with a few of the flavors to try and make a more frappucino-like drink.

My favorite flavor is the strawberry mousse

I'm frustrated to find that in trying out the various Protein powders, I'm not tolerating artificial sweeteners very well. In addition to that, I don't do well with gluten.

So, I was excited to find a recommendation here for Raw Protein, which is gluten-free and sweetened with Stevia. I'm going to pick some up at our local health food store and give it a try. I also sent for a few sample packs of About Time, http://tryabouttime.com/shop/trial-pack/

Best of luck to us all!

My surgeon actually requires we use Bariatric Advantage and of course they sell it out of the office. Not sure if they have a website but I know it's on Amazon.< /p>

I am a huge fan of the nectar powders! My current fave is the Cappuccino flavor- has just a hint of a coffee taste. I also like the chocolate truffle and double stuffed cookie. I mix my shakes in the blender with ice and 8 oz. of milk. Another brand I like is Celebrate ENS+Protein. I like the vanilla cake batter. I still like the nectar ones more, but Celebrate is nice because you get in all your Vitamins too.

I have trouble getting the Nectar to mix in the blender with ice. They do perfectly well with the Blender Bottle and almond milk, but there's so much air when I pop them in the blender, I can't drink them :/ The double-stuffed cookie is great though I just got some of the other Syntrax line, Matrix...and OMG the mint cookie is good. Tastes like a blended thin mint.
