I seem to be the only one that likes the chocolate Premier Protein!

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

No your not. I love the chocolate. It' s my favorite of the three flavors. I bought 2 cases of each flavor and I still have a 3/4 of a case of the strawberry. I liked the strawberry before surgery but now it just doesn't taste as good to me as it did before. I had trouble with the shakes in the 2nd case and Premier replaced the case. I was trying to get them to replace it with chocolate but they wouldn't do it. I also use The Bariatricpal hot chocolate every morning for Breakfast. I have to have at least 1 or 2 Protein drinks a day as I am having trouble with eating enough dense Protein foods to get to 60 let allow 80. I have had pain all along since week three and still do every time I eat a dense protein.

Samples of premier and other brands?

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

They have bunch of different brands. I got 10 packets to try and landed with Quest chocolate shakes. Premier Protein chocolate and vanilla from buying 4 packs at Walmart. There is a Protein Water called protein2O that's good Atkins Lift Protein Water is good. Both have 15g of protein low calorie low sugars

Chike iced coffee and Chike chocolate bliss; unjury chocolate splendor, Syntrax nectar Cappuccino, Syntrax Matrix perfect chocolate, Syntrax Matrix mint cookie.

I mix my Protein shakes with unsweetened vanilla cashew milk. If you are using powders, what you mix yours with can make a big difference.

No Protein shake is ever going to taste like chocolate milk (Unjury chocolate splendor comes closest IMO). Look for something you can choke down fairly easily rather than something you "love."

I agree with all these they have the best flash or so far some are gritty and have an after taste.

And which blenders do you recommend? Surgery is Monday so it's crunch tine

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I don't like the premier chocolate shake cold, but heated up it's like a hot chocolate and wonderful. I also drink the vanilla and strawberry premier shake. I buy it by the case at costco.

Right now strawberry is my favorite, but it wasn't when I first had my surgery three months ago. Sometimes the strawberry taste really sweet to me and the vanilla sometimes not sweet enough.

I've also tried GNC whey Protein powder brand of Cookies and cream and also their unflavored. I use the unflavored to add to other foods. The unflavored hasn't really changed the flavor of any foods. The Cookies and cream was OK, I may try to blend it up with ice but I did find that both of their Protein powders worked better if I use my stick blender vs my magic bullet. Using the magic bullet caused the powders to foam too much.

What blender do you use?

Premier vanilla rules my universe.

And try Premier chocolate again, but don't try and pretend it's chocolate milk.....it's actually a lot more like a Yoo-hoo chocolate drink? I grew up in NJ and Yoo-hoo was super popular there, I loved it as a kid.

I have had a very hard time finding shakes that I could drink. i have recently discovered this combination that tastes amazing. I mix a bottle of carnation chocolate high Protein instant Breakfast (15g of protein) with a scoop of chocolate premiere protein and some ice cubes or frozen bananas. Very good and chocolatey

I've tried all the Chike flavors and can recommend each of them with high levels of confidence that you'll probably like them.

The absolute worst powder I ever tried is unjury strawberry. I thought I was going to hurl every time I tried it. Into the trash the can went. Never again.

      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.
