What flavors of protein shakes do you recommend



Recommended Posts

Protein is hard because what you might like now, may change after your surgery. The best thing you can do is go onto a site and order some samples so you can try the different flavor until you find some that you love.

That being said, I have some absolute favorites that i would recommend trying:

1. This is my favorite! Premier Protein ready made shakes. The have 30 grams of Protein and 1 gram of sugar. They come in chocolate, strawberries and cream and vanilla. For me, chocolate is my favorite because it is not overly sweet. You can buy these in bulk at Sam's and costco and the do go on sale.

2. Syntrax grab and go Nectars - these can be made with milk or Water are are absolutely delicious. I am drinking a fuzzy naval flavor mixed with Water. It is delicious. There are 23 grams of protein in these but could be boosted if you make them with fair life milk. I also love the vanilla Bean Torte which I do make with milk and it tastes like a delicious milkshake. Lastly I also love the caribbean cooler which tastes like one of those fru fru drinks you get on vacation.

Honestly these are the Proteins that I prefer. I have trouble with a lot of the whey protein mixes but for some reason Syntrax seems lighter and more delicious.

Go onto Amazon and order a sample pack so you can try the different flavors.

      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.
