CrissyCakes 110 Posted April 11, 2016 (edited) I want to start getting prepared for post-op and I'm wondering what drinks you guys like. I randomly came across an already mixed drink from Iconic Protein. It's 20g of Protein, has Fiber, B12 and only 130 calories...but at almost 4 dollars a bottle I'm wondering if it's worth it. Any suggestions Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App Edited April 11, 2016 by CrissyCakes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daisee68 2,493 Posted April 11, 2016 I use Premier Protein. Ready to drink shakes a d still at 10 months post-op have 1 every day. For powders I use Precision Engineered whey Protein Isolate. Both the chocolate and the vanilla are wonderful. My sister (non-WLS) tried it and loved it much more than the others she had tried.

Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted April 11, 2016 I like Premier Protein, Syntrax nectar, unjury, and GNC Lean shake 25. I also like the ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrates (great for the clear phase), Quest, and Eve Carnation Breakfast essentials (a nice budget option). Try samples before you commit to buying a large container of anything. Also, keep in mind that your tastes may change post-op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kyle.odom 57 Posted April 11, 2016 I am using premier Protein, vanilla flavor and I really like it. Today is one full week in the liquid diet and I've been using them at least twice a days for the past 7 days and haven't gotten tired of it yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katanne 215 Posted April 12, 2016 I really like Unjury chocolate Splendor - tastes just like chocolate milk when I mix it with milk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daisee68 2,493 Posted April 12, 2016 One more I just remembered as I am getting one out of my cabinet for an evening snack - if you like hot chocolate, check out the Protein hot chocolate from the BariatricPal Store. The amaretto flavor is my favorite! Only time I have actually found Protein powder that could be heated and didn't clump. 80 calories and 15g Protein.< /p> http://store.bariatricpal.com/collections/hot-protein-drinks/products/bariatricpal-hot-chocolate-protein-drink-amaretto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Justina0218 28 Posted April 12, 2016 I agree with everyone else premier Protein is 1 of the best I have tried, no after taste which was my biggest issue and 1 of the only shakes I have seen to offer 30g Protein per shake!!!!!

Daisee68 2,493 Posted April 12, 2016 Premier Protein is a very smooth texture - just slightly thicker (but not much) than full fat milk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TXhottie 13 Posted April 12, 2016 I have tried tons of Protein shakes and finally discover if I take the premier vanilla shakes and add equal amounts of skim milk, I can drink it without gagging. But that's the only one I can remotely swallow. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
