They have Protein straw/ banana Gelatin that is good. Also some protein concentrate that I mix with Water and sometimes add in Gatorade to change the taste up. No powdery after taste. Syntrax is good also. Proteinex is a liquid you can drink straight from bottle but it is too sweet for me so I mix with water. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal AppWelcome to a new lifestyle Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal AppLook on the Bariatric Choice website. They have many different options. I read the reviews and made my choices from there. Haven't been sorry at all Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal AppI was at Walmart today, looked and the only Premier Protein shake on the shelf was the banana cream.

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal AppDiluted Gatorade, apple juice was good for me Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal AppBariatricChoice.com has some Protein concentrate pouches that are really good. Several varieties and they go down like flavored Water. Not a shake texture, taste, etc. there is also something called Proteinex that is on same site and is good. Try it maybe it will help. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal AppFirst 3 days post op was hard. I am 8 days out, back to work and my surgeon told me today I was near perfect in my recovery. You may second guess but this is the best thing I have done and I bet you will feel the same. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal AppBariatricChoice.com sells some really good Protein shakes + a strawberry banana Gelatin that has 15 grams of protein. I also get the concentrate drinks pouches to add to my Water at 15 grams of protein. I needed variety and I do have it. I read the reviews and picked what sounded palatable to me and I am happy so far. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal AppYou had major surgery and sleep is your bodies way of healing itself. Add to that the low calories and it will take weeks to feel really right again. I take 2 Vitamins and I take one at different times of the day. I'm going to move to Flintstone vitamins +Iron after I finish all my freebies. If that doesn't help then I'll adjust.
