What is the best protein drink?

By justplaintired

· 486 views

I'm hoping to find the best tasting protein drink that has the most protein. I want something that will fill me up and not make me gag. I've only tried unjury vanilla and that was pretty good. I'm also thinking about buying that whey stuff to add to things to get that protein in and hopefully keep the hungries away.

 

I start one week pre-op diet and I'm almost anxious to begin. I say almost because I have heard that pretty much everyone on the forums is starving on the pre op diet. I guess I'm just so anxious to start losing weight!

 

No more excuses, no more last hurrahs, exercise must begin...

 

HERE'S TO A NEW ME IN 2011! Cheers!

    I started yesterday with the "Premier Nutrition High Protein Shake". It's got 30 grams of protein, which is a little higher than Slim Fast Optima, plus it doesn't taste quite so syrupy sweet. I've been drinking the chocolate, and they're not bad. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't hungry though . . . I got them at Costco, where a box of 18 of them was about $20.

    Good Luck!! :rolleyes:

    I also drink the Premier Protein Shake. It tastes fine. It has 160 calories and 30 grams of protein. I haven't found another shake with higher protein. I also have the Unjury vanilla and I like that with some sugar free pudding thrown in for flavor. I have used the banana, chocolate, and cheesecake flavors.

    Premier comes in a red box at Costco. There is Chocolate and vanilla. I will be drinking one every morning for the rest of my life. Between the band restricting how much I eat and the fact that I am a vegetarian, I have to start the day with as much protein as possible. Also I cant eat solid food in the mornings until the band loosens up later in the day! I think its 27$ for the case of 18 juice-type boxes her in Ca.
