I haven't been told yet which Protein shake I am supposed to use but pre of I have been using Body Fortress Advanced whey with 60 grams of Protein and the chocolate on is the one I use , it tastes pretty good and it has good protein but I buy it at Walmart for about 20.00 not sure if you can use it but it's worth asking about.

I have always preferred making my own to using the premade ones. My favorite Protein powders are Unjury (Chocolate splendor, or chicken Soup made with warm Water instead of milk for a savory change), Syntrax Nectar (cappuccino or chocolate truffle but they have tons of flavors), Chike Iced coffee (or really any of their flavors), Syntrax Matrix -- any flavor, and Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard, any flavor but especially their double chocolate flavor.

I usually mix mine with unsweetened vanilla almond or cashew milk, and add a couple of teaspoons of instant coffee.

That's exactly what I do. I can't taste the Syntrax nectar Unflavored, but it doesn't have as much Protein as other brands. I can't taste it at all. I've also added it to hummus and to ricotta. I love that I can't tell that it's in there.

Anyone have suggestions for other brands of unflavored/tasteless Protein powder?

I put the Premier Protein caramel shake in Decaf coffee or sugar free hot chocolate and that helps. I know you don't like the premier, and I'm not a fan of it either, but this way you can't taste it. And I also put a scoop of unflavored Protein in it to get even more protein in. Be careful though because some people become lactose intolerant after surgery

Isopure alpine punch provides 20 ounces of liquid and 40 grams of Protein. I really like this since it is not a shake and helps me also get my fluids in.

I know there's a lot of controversy around GENEPRO, but my surgeon's office recommends it. And I love it.
