Best Low Carb Protein Shakes??



Recommended Posts

Happy Tuesday Everyone -

I start my liquid diet this Thursday, August 11th. Does anyone know the best tasting shakes out there? I need Low Carbs and Low Sugar as I am a diabetic. I do not want to spend alot of money on shakes that are aweful!

Thanks so much for your help!

I use EAS Carb Advantage and I know Muscle Milk Light also has low carbs but I'm not a huge fan of that one. Good Luck!

The "Oh Yeah" Cookies and cream is my favorite. I'm also diabetic, and had no problems at all :)

Good luck!

Hi Dawn,

I use powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Original chocolate - 20 grams of Protein, no carbs, no sugars - taste just like chocolate milk (unjury.com). I also use nectar (I purchase through Amazon.com) - Fuzzy Navel. My doctor makes me mix my Protein powder with just Water but I'm three weeks post op and have used Almond Unsweetened Milk with my Unjury powder - yummy! For something quick, I don't know if you have a Trader Joe's out where you are but I found canned Pure Protein, high protein, no carbs - the cans come in Chocolate or vanilla and come in two versions of protein 21 g or 34 g. Best of luck.

I like Premiere shakes from costco. 30 grams Protein I think. I usually get chocolate, but vanilla I like too. Muscle Milk I didn't like. I also use Protein Powder from my Dr that mixes with anything. I add it to regular milk sometimes. I have a shake in between meals sometimes for a snack or for a quick meal. With kiids and busy, I don't always have time to sit and chew for a long time. I keep those shakes around all the time to make sure I get adequate protein esp on busy days. Thanks.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
