i just finished a delicious premier Protein chocolate drink. last night, i added some torani's sugar free salted caramel Syrup to my shake and it was fantastic. i haven't tried any other brands because i liked Premier Protein so much. i haven't even tried the flavors other than chocolate, though i might now that i know i can get a 4 pack at walgreens.

I got a lot of samples from vita lady. Worth the investment . My surgery next week so I'm glad I have choices for later on. I don't like the syntax koolaid type flavored much, but I bet they come in handy afterwards. I love the Premier RTD like everyone else, but who knows if I will after surgery.

I used the Body by Vi Protein Shakes and used 1% milk and sugar free Jello puddings. I would add ice about three quarters of the way of the individual blender shaker, put about 2 tablespoons of the pudding and the 2 scoops of the Protein mix (which is flavored vanilla and tastes good by itself). Blend until it is the consistency of a shake. It is REALLY good and you have the opiton to have so many flavors that it doesn't get boring. I still have those every once in awhile. It is hard to drink all of it, so I save the rest for an afternoon or evening snack.< /p>

Give it a try, it is really good and most of all filling, while also helping with your sweet tooth. You feel kind of like you're cheating - having a malt or shake that really isn't one but tasts like one!

I hope you enjoy!

Didn't like Premier Protein at all. Far too sweet!

I like Prosource no carb liquid Protein

CVS whey Protein powder

CVS whey Protein sunfiber (great for preventing constipation)

Isopure naked. (Unflavored and mixes well with hot or cold beverages. Very helpful when you hit that "I can't take another sweet drink" wall.)

Syntrax fuzzy navel. The only thing I can eat for the first few hours every AM. It tastes great!

Quest Protein powder in Vanilla & strawberry

Premier Protein in Strawberries & Creme

Cellucor Whey Protein in Red Velvet Cake Batter

Isopure banana Creme

Isopure Vanilla creme

Isopure Alpine punch (RTD, not the powder)

Isopure unflavored

These are Proteins I've tried so far and all have great flavor and consistency. I tried Cellucor Cor-Fetti Cake Batter and found it a bit too sweet.

Pure Protein makes pretty good shakes. They are premixed so very convenient. They have 170 cals 35g of protein and 4g carbs. Come in a bunch of flavors- chocolate, Cookies and cream, vanilla, banana, strawberry. I've tried them all and really like the chocolate and cookies n cream.

I think they're also coming out w a smaller container that has 23g protein. They typically come by the case but If you get it from Vitamin Shoppe they will let you buy just one to try (or a few).

I love the Unjury vanilla. I didn't find it gritty whatsoever. I thought the fruity flavore of the Syntrax tasted like Gelatin /jello... Power Crunch makes an amazing vanilla. I'm on the search for a coffee flavored Protein but I've had no luck.. They all taste bad. My surgery is this Friday and the trick is going to be finding something that doesn't thicken or turn to sludge while sitting. We can't chug it so I don't want it too thick.

I like the muscle milk strawberries and cream 170 cal 20g Protein. 11 oz 4 for $6.98 at Walmart. Didn't think I would like them but they are good not after taste for me.

New favorite, in a little Water blenderize 1/4 c of cherries, then add to premier vanilla stirring only with a spoon. AMAZING and keeps the froth to a minimum

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
