They must be good then! :thumbup: Where do you get that?

I like GNC brand. What I suggest is buy a vanilla and choc and go to theworldaccordingtoeggface.com and take a look at all the different things she does with vanilla and choc.

I've found that the only shake I can stand is the powdered dark chocolate Muscle Milk. I use milk instead of water for calories, more protein and calcuim. I don't make it as thick though. I find that it tastes better closer to the consistancy of chocolate milk.

Does anyone know of any good tasting protein shakes?

i got some packets from health foods unlimeted for 1,99 each i got strawberry shortcake and cookies and cream and fudge that was cheap :thumbup:

I like the EASadvantage too- The cheapest place I have found them by far is Target- even cheaper than Walmart! I also take a 32oz bottle (I reuse gatorade bottles) then I fill it with water, a crystal light packet (or similar) and add a scoop of unflavored protein powder. I like the one from GNC 100% Whey. So much better than drinking all that sweet milky stuff all the time.

I have tried lots of protein Muscle Milk, EAS, Isopure, and GNC brand) but the one that I LOVE is Unjury. You can get sample packets to try out the different flavors they carry. Its a little pricey, but worth it. My fav is vanilla, i can mix it with anything. Just tried their new chocolate splendor...taste exactly like chocolate milk!!! no after taste either!! :thumbup:

I get them at WalMart or Target. Prices are about the same .. Just depends on which one has my flavor .

Muscle Milk LIGHT in the RTD boxes.. either vanilla or strawberry creme. The chocolate tastes fake.

EasAdvantageCarbcontrol are ok, but I have to add some s/f torani or daVinci to make them taste better.

unjury (UNJURY is Medical Quality Whey Protein Isolate. Best Tasting Whey Protein Powder. Most Trusted Whey Protein Powder Supplement. Taste the difference) is decent too.

Syntrax nectar 23g protein, 90 calories, great flavors

I have EAS Chocolate right now and it's decent. I purchased Unjury and Bariatric Advantage before at the doctor's office and those have been the best---but also the most expensive! I drink 2-3/day to make sure I get all my protein in, but I also just had surgery, too.

The Inspire and PURE protein powders from bariatriceating.com are hands-down the best. Dutch chocolate + almond milk is delicious. And the PURE (unflavored) can be added to almost anything.

I buy the pre made shakes at trader joes called pure protein. They have 35g of protein in a can. I don't know about most of you but it's hard for me to drink the protein shakes so I try to get as much protein in one shake as possible. So of you are sooooo creative with your shakes and they sound delicious, but to be honest I just want to grab and go. Maybe I will get to a point were I will spend more time making my shakes, but it took me 4 hours yesterday to get that 1 can of protein shake down *sigh* but I know it will get better

I use Protein Rite shakes from Protein Rite High Protein chocolate Drink (7 Servings/Box)

To me, they are really good. Just mix with 8 oz. cold Water and I add ice and shake it up! They don't have that Vitamin taste or smell and they have 15 grams of protein per drink. The hot chocolate ones are good too for cold weather!:thumbup:

The Syntha 6 protein shakes from GNC are THE BEST!!! LOL. The flavors are great and you don't get any aftertaste. It tastes like a milkshake. AMAZING. I have the chocolate peanut butter and it tastes like a Reeses Milkshake. I have tried the Strawberry and it tastes like Nesquick strawberry milk. I make mine with unsweetened almond milk instead of water. Depending on the flavor I might throw half a banana in just to spice it up. Sytha 6 go for it. The jug of powder is huge but don't let that scare you. if you don't like it, GNC will let you return it, even if it's been opened.
