Protein - whats your favorite?



Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm pre-op and looking for the best tasting Protein drink/shake. I have tried Premier Protein and the aftertaste/chalkiness and sweetness are too much for me. I need one that has absolutely no flavor or one that really tastes good. Pre made or powder-doest matter. Thanks! Whats your favorite and why??

Hi Jennifer, I'm one year post op. I've tried many Protein powder shakes and the very best one's that I have found are from "Milk shake Bar" They have a lot of flavors. They can be mixed with milk or Water. My 2 favorites are vanilla Caramel and Rocky Road. They mix up beautifully and have no after taste. I get it from Amazon, I don't know where you live but they are supposed to be available at Whole Foods in the beginning of next year. Their phone # is 1-888-582-2580 and e mail is www.proteinmilkshakebar.com, give them a try, I don't think you'll be disappointed! Good Luck to you! Cinnamon

Hi there - I am over a year post op and tried a half million types and flavors of Protein before I found

GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ - chocolate

It's from GNC and the nice thing about GNC is their return policy! If you open a product, try it and don't like it, you can return it for a full refund! It's around $30 per bag, but they often times have BOGO half off and you can combine that sale with their $10.00 coupon. Good luck!

Premier Protein premadr chocolate shakes are so good you must try it! They are made with Water have 160 calories 30 grams or Protein less then 1 sugar and 5 carbs! You can find them in Walmart Sam's club Walgreen's and they aren't a bad price my favorite flavors are chocolate caramel and banana

Hi Jennifer, It's Cinnamon again. I just wanted to tell you something else I use and you might like. It's a drink called "Isopure" it's in a 20oz bottle & there is no sugar but it has 40 grams of Protein. It comes ready to drink. They have a variety of flavors but my favorite is Blue Raspberry. They are very good, no after taste. I don't get them from Amazon as they seem to charge more. I got mine from Lucky Vitamin, and I believe they are available at Health food Stores. Hope I didn't bother you, but We gotta have options ya know!!! Lol Cinnamon

      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.
