Premade Protein Shakes or Protein waters are great in the early days. For foods, I ate a lot of refried Beans, hummus, thick Soups, etc. and would just add unflavored Protein Powder (Isopure) to everything. Once you progress to solid foods, it gets easier to get more protein in without supplementing.

I have been taking the Unjury chicken broth Protein Powder. You mix it up in warm (not hot) Water and drink it. It has 21 grams of Protein in 8 ounces. 90 calories so it is really not bad to get the protein in. I got so sick of sweet Protein Shakes that I needed a change. If you need the full 30 grams of protein like a premeir Protein Shake, use a scoop and a half in 12 ounces...still much easier to get down than a protein shake and the calories are the same.

I need to get my hands on the non flavored protein because taking it down has been my biggest challenge the taste is to much for me .

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
