Let's talk protein shakes ?!

[mzsantiago88 145]

I'm finding that Protein Shakes are friggen gross to say the least. what are some good tasting Protein shakes I know I was told I need 60G a day in Protein Shake tips anyone ?

They are gross, the only one i can handle is the chocolate Premiere Protein in has 30 grams of protein. After drinking it for a week it taste like chocolate milk. I’m currently 3.5 months post op and still drink it every morning. You can do this!

I agree they aren't great. I too recommend Premiere Protein. Although my favorite is Caramel. If you are allowed, you can mix them in coffee (or decaf). It's kinda like a latte. I also found Unjury makes a high protein chicken Soup that I really enjoy.

I hated most shakes I tried... but I found out that I am intolerant to aspartame and sucralose. bipro is stevia based, and I've been on the liqud diet 2 days and drinking them a few times a week before that and I still think they are delicious. It doesn't taste "fake" and overly sweet like the other ones do imo. I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk and a few ice cubes to curb the powdery taste and I'm good to go.

I'm amused after being here barely a fortnight to find that someone starts this topic (or one with a very similar name or theme) every other day.

Hey, mzsantiago88 , I suggest you use the search tool at the top of the page. This topic is done to death.

My favorite shakes are the Premier. I am drinking the banana cream right now and it's really good. Make they are cold and they will go down smooth! Also try to freeze them in popsicle trays, everything's easier to eat in popsicle form lol

We are all here to help each other, not to be critical. You'll find a lot of the topics are repetitive, but it's a place for people to discuss their upcoming surgeries and concerns. If you don't want to read about Protein Shakes again, don't click on the thread. Simple as that.

I have been here awhile and just now a week out post-op. This subject is done a lot but I for one have learned something new each time. The struggle is real to get these babies down and to have them more palatable. The powdered is too thick right now and lays in my new stomach like lead. The premades are just too sweet at times. This is a subject that I zoom to when I see a new one posted. Plus the newbies are still learning the site/app. Keep the suggestions coming folks!

Don't worry if the topic has been done before, most have!!😊

I like Inspire shakes from Bariatric Eating. Lots of flavors and relatively easy to mix. I also add spinach and fruit to those shakes, although not a lot at all.

I used to enjoy Premier Protein shakes but they have been sitting in my pantry for a couple of months now. I really only use Inspire.

I used to love Premier, but since the sleeve they go right through me. I mean literally.
I enjoy Quest now.

I don't know what I would do without the Unjury chicken Soup. It's savory, not sweet and goes down very easy. You have to make sure the Water is the correct temperature, but other than that, it's a simple and refreshing change to all the sweet, dessert-y type shakes and drinks out there. My nutritionist recommended it to me and now I highly recommend it to you.

I thought about buying that but I wasn't sure if it would be disgusting or not. Does it taste just like a broth?

Very close to a broth. It's not perfectly clear so it's slightly thicker. It's a bit on the salty side, but you can add a little extra Water to dilute it to taste.
