I don't, mostly because there is another ready made shake that packs 30grams of Protein, 1 gram of sugar and 160 calories. I then only use 1 per day and with the addition of my food I get to my Protein goal very easy.

In the end they cost less than Atkins brand and can be purchased in bulk packs from costco and Sam's. They come in 18 packs there.They are called Premier Protein. They have them in chocolate, strawberry creme and vanilla. The chocolate is my favorite. Because they are ready made, they don't have that nasty grit you get from powders and they actually taste great in comparison. If you want to give them a try they also carry them in 4 packs at Walmart and some Walgreens stores but of course they are not as inexpensive if you don't buy them in bulk. My surgeons office recommended them because I could not tolerate the protein powders at all.

I do think Atkins is not a bad choice based on their nutritional info, I just think you really get a good kick start with 30 grams if you have one first thing in the am.

Hopefully this makes sense, let me know if you have questions,

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
