I HATE supplemental protein, I think it tastes disgusting. I know no protein is going to be tasteless but I am looking for close to it. Anyone have a protein supplement that they swear by that you can barely taste?

Depends on what you have already tried. I have a Protein drink every morning for Breakfast. I use chocolate Muscle Milk. I mix the powder with half Water, half soy milk (I'm lactose intolerant). I love it! Every now and again I make a shake with my Muscle Milk using soy milk and sf pudding. Initially I used the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury brand that I had to order through the mail. It's good too and they have one that's flavorless, but I didn't try that one. Unjury is a good brand but more expensive than Muscle Milk that I buy at costco.

Good luck in your search. It is just awful when you have to eat something regularly that taste bad.

I am wondering the same thing! During post-op I am def not getting my Protein in.

Ugh!

i use isopure unflavored and you can put it in anything you want to.food,drinks whatever. and i like it alot.you should give it a try. i ordered all of mine on the internet,i dont know if they have it in stores. GOOD LUCK to ya

I very much like (really--I like them!) the Inspire Proteins from Bariatric Eating. The Dutch chocolate flavor is really good if mixed with almond milk.

Their PURE unflavored Protein is also very good.

I got the ready-made EAS shakes that have 25g of protein and 210 cal. in them, and they are so gross. I've been looking for something I can put in plain water (b/c I don't like flavored water like the Special K protein water things) that will mix up good and doesn't have a taste or isn't gritty. Anyone know of a good one?

I love the body fortress whey protein muscle milk. It tastes great like choc milk. I mix 1 scoop with 4-6 oz skim milk , crushed ice and just shake it in the cup they sell. Its cheap at walmart 12dollars for 2lbs. Its only 130cal and if you use skim milk its 200 calories,gotta add those calories. It can be mixed with water as well. It has 26 grams of protein per scoop.You can add stuff to make it a shake i just have it plain. i dont find a gritty feel or after taste like the other types. Good Luck

Hi there. Just curious, when you are using the isopure are you using the scoop provided? I have the same and I have not been able to stomach it, but I just can't throw the $55 I paid for it down the drain.

What are you mixing it in to get your Protein, and, how many grams of protein are you getting? Thanks in advance.

I am using Isopure protein powders, which you can buy online or at GNC stores. The unflavored is great because it can be mixed into absolutely everything! I also have the vanilla and chocolate flavors. I have enjoyed Isopure powders the most because each scoop has 25g protein, 0 carbs, and hardly any calories.

You can also buy IsoPure at Vitamin Shoppe stores. The Jillian Michaels brand(Walmart $10) is okay - if you add a packet of Nutrasweet - it cuts that cloying stevia taste.

Thanks for the input. Maybe I will contact the companies to see if they have any samples.

Bariatric Eating does sell a protein sampler--it's a great way to try a handful of different proteins to see what you like.

I used the unflavored Isopure in soups, sprinkled on chili, etc. BUT I also use non-fat dry milk powder - the same protein overall, and easier to drink/take in almost anything, sauces, added to skim milk, anything. 1T =5g and it's cheaper than the other whey.

I have been using the unflavored GNC brand and it works for me in hot food or soups.

i just got my orders of protein in the mail today. i ordered the sample packets from bariatric eating that betsy mentioned and i also ordered some sample packets from unjury that someone else on this site had mentioned. so far, i've tried the chicken soup one from unjury. it was really good. :frown: you mix it with 8oz warm water and it tastes like chicken broth. it even has the little green things in it. kinda salty but i added a little pepper and it was fine. it mixes well, too. it has 21g of protein in it. i am about to try the inspire dutch chocolate from bariatric eating and i'll let you know how that tastes.

ok... right now i'm drinking the Bariatric Eating inspire dutch chocolate Protein shake. drinking as i type. here's my review of it....

it definitely doesn't taste "like chocolate cake batter" as they advertise that it does... but it's not bad. it tastes much much better than the slew of other Protein shakes i've tried (including the horrific bariatric advantage). it mixed well (no clumps really) and the best part about it (well, what i think is the best part about it) is that it's only 4oz. 4oz! that's half of what most other protein shakes are!!!! and in that four ounces you get 30 grams of protein, with only 126 calories and 2 carbs. for that, i can definitely down 4oz of a semi decent tasting protein shake!

i will definitely be ordering more of this and i'll post again later once i taste the others i got.

still to taste:

unjury chocolate

unjury unflavored
