I found a site that sells samples of a lot of powders. Can't remember the name, but do a Google search.

Syntrax Matrix are my favorites, I've tried others and I can stand them but they aren't great and I am sooo sick of them. Now I am just making my own with unflavored Protein powder, yogurt, etc. they are so much better then anything I have purchased

I too am looking for good/recommended Protein shakes. I have unjury at home, ready to try. But, they are Protein only, and I'd really like one that has added vitamins/minerals.

I previously used EAS AdvantEdge shakes - 17gm Protein, 100 Cal, which I loved, but they recently changed their recipe. Now, they have little chunks in them and it makes me gag.

I also like the Atkins shakes 15gm Protein, 160 Cal.

Open to suggestions!

I'm open to either. I was thinking the powder though

I like Syntrax whey Isolate Protein powders. They have a few different flavors, that I like and good quality Protein. I use them in shakes, with cottage cheese and make my own sugar free hot cocoa, with it and organic cocoa powder.

I also buy unflavored whey isolate for shakes which I change up the flavors with fruit or spices. (Love pumpkin Pie and Apple Pie spices)

Important to look at nutrition labels well. Some whey Proteins have added sugars or fillers that are not needed and add carbs that are not needed.

I believe the Syntrax and others I use have 3 grams carbs per serving, and zero to only 1 gram sugar. They also give about 25 grams protein per serving and mix well.

My nutritionist said no energy drinks so I am not sure.

      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.
