vincentmjr 5 Posted January 10, 2017 My doctor has a small list of either pre-made or powdered. I like Advant edge, because they aren't thick and don't leave a bad after taste Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TXJess 98 Posted January 11, 2017 I found a site that sells samples of a lot of powders. Can't remember the name, but do a Google search. Sent from my KFTBWI using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWJill 119 Posted January 11, 2017 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 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Firebolt 3 Posted January 11, 2017 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was thinking the powder though Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App 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.
