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.)

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

      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.
