ElusiveQuality 22 Posted July 15, 2008 ISO-PURE drinks are good if you find the right flavor. You need to drink one or two to get used to the finish, but after a while it became just like a Gatorade to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fenton 3 Posted July 15, 2008 Hmm. I was going to recommend the Isopure - I get the premade drinks, the low carb version. Clear, and - to me at least - not too revolting. The advantage is that they give you 40 g of Protein in 20 oz clear Fluid. Most clear fluids are clear because they have no protein... You might try the Green Tea isopure? I think that's the best-tasting, and it's the newest. Although if you didn't like the others... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ElusiveQuality 22 Posted July 15, 2008 Well, since you're already banded I'll happily buy you a coke as long as I get to watch you pound it down.:embaressed_smile: Anyhow, I've been sampling the liquid Proteins for about a week now prior to surgery and the nasty after-taste doesn't affect me anymore. I don't really notice it as much as before. I used to have to fire a shot down and then hit a chaser of black coffee. Now, I just dilute the milkshake drinks a little and can handle the Isopure with no problem. I bought a case of the Mango-Peach isopure and plan to be hitting them hard after the surgery. Like Fenton said, 20oz Fluid and 40g Protein. Good combo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
