Syntrax Nectars are good. Can be mixed with Water, and come in a variety of flavors like Lemonaide, Fuzzy Navel, Cappucinno, etc... 100 cals, 23 g Protein, 0 g carb per scoop.

Agreed Premier shakes are pretty good and no mixing as they are ready to go. Syntrax you can get at GNC or The Vitamin Shoppe. Premier is at costco, Sam's and Walmart. Which ones have you tried?

I also had problem with Protein until I tried the premier chocolate flavor and now I'm happy I can get my protein in everyday

Syntrax isn't bad. I also did a lot of protein-filled broths (like pho) and made protein gella-o for myself to get by during phase 1

You've gotten good suggestions. In Store Vitamin Shoppe ad GNC are great places to go. Whole Foods and most drugs stores also carry Protein shakes and powders. I am the rare person who hated the taste of premiere Protein. I like Isopure. I can drink their green tea, black tea with lemon and coconut waters. I also liked CVS brand Protein powder. Try to get a variety and try to find one that can be mixed with Soups and teas.

I also ate and still eat loads of FAGE 0% greek yogurt. Early on I used to make a Soup by pureeing Beans, straining it and thinning it with vegetable broth. Add in a ½ scoop of unflavored Protein Powder and it makes for a great high protein, nutritious Soup.< /p>

After so many Protein shakes, I am sick of them. I am three weeks post-op. I now put Protein powder in hot tea. I then pour it over iceto make ice tea since I am not a hot drink person. Best wishes for a quick recovery!

I drink Premier Protein shakes in chocolate & strawberry. They MUST be cold. I also get Syntrax nectar but I mix mine in Silk unsweetened vanilla. I tried Water & couldn't stand it. You can buy individual servings at The Vitamin Shoppe. This way you can try various flavors without having to buy a huge container of the powder. I tried the Isopur drink & couldn't stand it. Tried to give it to my adult kids & they wouldn't drink it either. Ended up throwing out 4 bottles.< /p>

Good luck with your surgery.

Another vote for Syntrax nectar. The fruity ones are, to me, "da bomb".

I have not tried their vanilla/chocolate/strawberry shake flavors yet.

Much lighter than the traditional shakes. They make good Popsicles too.

I'm loving the chicken Soup flavored Protein powder by Unjury. It's yummy. Their vanilla flavor is good also.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
