Frustrated with protein shakes

[lapitcha 4]

Hi guys,

I was hoping you could help me find a Protein shake I can tolerate. During my pre surgery diet I drank powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury which I really liked. The only annoying thing is that I have to order it online and wait for it to come. I decided to try the GNC branded one and both the chocolate and vanilla were gross to me. Fast forward past surgery on the 29th and I'm not getting enough Protein in. I went to GNC and got the Jay Robb powder which is described as the "best tasting protein on the market" and it was anything but! They all have this very fake smell and aftertaste that Unjury doesn't have. I'm becoming frustrated because I want to increase my intake but I don't want to always rely on waiting for something to come in the mail.

Has anyone who is familiar with Unjury found some flavors that they like?

I haven't had unsure but have had luck with the various Syntrax nectar flavors and the True Athlete Unflavored whey.

I like premiere Protein and EAS advant edge Protein Shakes. Both premade and available at grocery and big box stores.

I've been making Greek yogurt smoothies with GENEPRO and frozen fruit. 45 grams but pretty filling. I'm 7 weeks out tomorrow and takes me about 45 minutes to drink so may be too soon for you

I'm going to take your word for it and try them out. The Total Lean shake was of the ones I didn't like but maybe the pre made ones will be okay

I second or third this! The total lean comes in a regular (sweetened with sucralose I think) and a "natural" (sweetened w stevia) I find the latter much much tastier but am not sure if it comes pre-mixed. I just shake each one up individually in a Blender Bottle. There's also a vegan version but I haven't looked at the numbers on that one.

Also ditto-ing the use of GENEPRO powder! Make anything into a high Protein thing and in my experience it's not detectable.

GENEPRO was a life saver for me. Plus, Dannon makes a Greek yogurt that has 22 grams of Protein per serving. It taste great. I can't keep my kids out of it. lol.

I have several kinds of Protein powders. I found a vanilla one in a bag at costco. The strawberry shortcake is good online from Bariatric Advantage. If I were you I would order at least 3 different kinds. I have 5 but I don't get sick of one flavor then. Also reorder when you are about 3/4 gone.

I use these premise as well - I love the strawberries n cream, pumpkin spice, vanilla, chocolate, and banana cream (which I had to buy online because GNC isn't currently carrying it in liquid form.

I bought Peanut Butter GNC Wheybolic Extreme 60 Original at GNC this week and it is my primary Protein Shake now, but I make it into a smoothie. One scoop Protein, skim milk, some ice, and a splash of GNC Lean shake liquid chocolate, and 5 seconds on my Magic Bullet and I'm a HAPPY camper! So yummy, and not too sweet. I am now happy on my all-liquid diet!

Pure Protein in chocolate are the only ones I didn't have to gag down.
