Great tasting protein shakes? Need input for which are the best brands.



Recommended Posts

Like some others already said Premier Protien- chocolate. Only I put a teaspoon of Decaf instant coffee crystals in it. Way cheaper then Starbucks and still feels decadent.

Also can try New whey. Comes in a tube. Lots of flavors. Blue raspberry and watermelon taste the best to me 3.8 oz and 42 grams of Protein.

I don't like Premier or any of the RTD shakes. For powders, I use Chike, unjury, Syntrax Matrix, Syntrax nectar Sweets, Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard, and Jay Robb. Chike is definitely my favorite, although I use a half serving most of the time because otherwise it is high calorie and high carb.

What people like is really an individual thing. I think it's a good idea to get a fair number of samples to figure out what works for you. Here are some places for samples/variety packs:

I also like the Healthwise Cappuccino and hot chocolate for hot drinks:

I love mine, and I am picky as can be. My doctor wanted me drinking the ones from his office but they were nasty. I was lucky because I actually see the ones I drink and knew they were great having tested them before. They are called Vemma BODE shakes and were designed by Chris Powell and his wife Heidi of The "Extreme Makeover weight loss edition" exclusively for our company...There is a vanilla and chocolate and they are delicious. I also add banana extract or mint extract or sometimes sugar free pudding to them:)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
