Padraigm613 5 Posted February 9, 2015 I am trying to find some smooth, non-gritty Protein drinks. I have tried many powders and they are horrible. I used to drink Muscle Milk but it is now too sweet and thick. I have my surgery is in less than two weeks, so I need to find something quick. I just bought some Gatorade Protein Drinks but they are high in sugars. Suggestions? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skc72 138 Posted February 9, 2015 I'm also pre-op and using premium Protein. It's pretty smooth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grateful_Love 114 Posted February 10, 2015 I don't mind Unjury chocolate splendor but I hate their other flavors. It's Protein but not Meal Replacement. With the unjury I use a little instant coffee (decaf) and that takes away the too sweet taste. I'm pre op right now. Everyone says our tastes change so good luck to you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ready2B 263 Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) I can't handle the sweet Protein drinks so I really like Unjury's chicken Soup. I also like BariWise hot cocoa because it is never gritty and not overly sweet. Maybe it is just mixing it with hot Water instead that helps - who knows. I also like that both of those are really low in calories too - only 100 for the chicken Soup & 80 for the hot cocoa. Because they are mixed with Water, no extra calories from adding milk. They are both 15 grams of Protein, which isn't as high as some, but since I actually like them I am more likely to drink them every day.

meyouus 415 Posted February 14, 2015 I am not at this stage yet, but plan to purchase unjury samples soon. I was wondering, are they mixed with milk pre or post op? Then I was wondering, if it is gritty, as some say, maybe you could heat a little milk/water, (1/4 cup?) , mix the Protein mix in (to reduce truthiness) and then add the rest of the cold liquid to make a cold Protein shake. If this can't apply, just pretend I was never here! ????. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
