I use unflavoured whey Protein Powder (it's cheap and has like zero carbs). I can add it to smoothies and sweet and savoury dishes. When I make a smoothie, I'll add cocao powder, honey, fruit or other things to flavour it. You can throw in Peanut Butter or coffee or whatever. I can also stir it into chili or Soups and not taste it.

I have to admit that I use a cheap generic supermarket brand but there are lots of options.

Hi sammi! I use the premier shakes! I love the caramel and the bananas and cream! Also just tried the strawberries and creme and it was just as good! I do not like the the vanilla one, and can't have the chocolate one! But you should give those a go! Its 30g of Protein and 1g sugar 5g carbs and low fat!
I'll be on my liquid diet soon! So I have gotten prepared! Good luck!

Yes!!! If I want to try a flavor I go to walmart because they have the 4 packs, but since I know that I like the strawberries and bananas and caramel, I go to sams club! They have a bigger 12-ish pack! (:

It's a good Idea to sample the products before you buy. What tastes good to me may not taste good to you.

Many shake recipes online. Vanilla flavored Protein Powder to make your own combinations.

coffee Mocha - Add Decaf instant coffee and Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup.

fruit creamsicle - add crystal light fruit flavors. Even a bit of the coconut flavor for summer.

Peanut Butter cup - PB3 powdered peanut butter and sugar free chocolate syrup

pumpkin spice - pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice.

@mercmerc-Hi! Did I see on your profile you are from Columbus? Small 🌏, I am from Mount Vernon and planning my surgery at OSU-Wexner Medical Center within the month/six weeks. Where are you going to have yours? I also lived in Columbus for about 10 years, so still can find my way around,if I had to. At any rate welcome and hang around okay?😝
