Everyone's likes are very individual, but since you asked,

I like....

unjury unflavored and chicken broth

Garden of Life Raw Fit and Raw Protein original, chocolate and vanilla

Muscle Milk cake batter, banana and red velvet cake

Syntrax Matrix vanilla

Syntrax nectar cherry, apple, fuzzy naval and lemonade

Spirutein banana

Premium Protein chocolate, vanilla and strawberry

Did not like...

Any Isopure (only thing that ever made me gag postop)

Any Jay Robb egg (the whey varieties were OK)

Chike (too gritty). I just drink regular coffee and add premier vanilla or chocolate for Creamer instead

I also mix in PB2, Mio and Dasani Water enhancers, berries, peaches, mangos, bananas and Torani syrups for even more flavor options

Here are a couple of my favorites...I use unjury only. I always mix in the Protein powder last - it seems to reduce the froth. I use a Magic Bullet to mix my shakes.

5 ice cubes, 8 ounces Water or almond milk, 1 teaspoon Hershey's unsweetened cocoa powder - whiz together. Add 1-2 tablespoons of sugar free Torani peppermint Syrup and a scoop of Unjury chocolate Splendor, whiz again until blended. Tastes like a Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookie.

2-3 frozen strawberries, 1/4 cup blueberries, 1/3 of a banana, 8 ounces of almond milk or Water splash of sugar free Torani vanilla syrup. Whiz up in the Magic Bullet. Add one scoop of Unjury Vanilla and whiz again until blended.

5 ice cubes, 8 ounces water or almond milk. Whiz together. 1-2 teaspoon PB2 powder, 1 scoop of Vanilla Protein Powder. Whiz again.

Sometimes I will add some Greek yogurt. You can play around with different sugar free puddings - pistaccio pudding mix with Vanilla Unjury is awesome. Lemon pudding mix is good.

I usually have 4 or 5 bottles of Torani sugar free syrups at all times. You need to play around with different flavors and textures.

If you want something savory - Unjury chicken Soup is pretty good.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
