What Protein Supplement Do You Use?

I am looking for protein supplements? I recently bought some Healthwise supplements from a weight loss clinic. they are good but expensive. Does anyone use the Unjury supplements advertised on the forum? Looking for suggestions.

    I really like the EAS carbadvantedge. Rich dark chocolate and blend it with ice for a cool treat. 17 grams of carbs and about 110 calories.

    Unjury is my first choice. Best taste, vanilla or chocolate. Great customer service as well.

I love the Unjury...chocolate and vanilla. My husband still prefers Muscle Milk and can get 72 grams of protein in 1 shake. Higher in calories' date=',,but has worked well for him.[/quote']

Your body can only use about 25 grams at a time. The rest is wasted.

I like LIGHT MUSCLE MILK all flavors and my new favorite EAS Low Carb Strawberrys and Cream Shake !!!

I have a hard time with chaulky milky shake like protein shakes/drinks. So, I found a 'clear' protein drink in grape and fruit punch I really enjoy called Protein Blitz. Its expensive, but if it doesn't make me sick its worth it. Now, I also have unjury and Now 'unflavored' protein powders that I mix in my foods such as soups, jello, etc...

What's wrong with drinking the Atkins shakes frequently? I really like them.

Given that they all taste chalky to me - none.

And given that I'm now wheat free, gluten free, lactose free, soy free and anything ending in "ol" free, that pretty much rules out ANY Protein shake on the market here, lol.

That's not helpful, really, lol. I do however manage to get all the protein I need with food.

Anyone have any suggestions on an unflavored brand to mix into food? I went into GNC and they only had 2 options. One was Soy which supposedly can mess with your estrogen levels so I'm not even trying that one and the other one was not a whey isolate. I also found out that Optimum Nutrition says Whey Isolate, but only has a little bit of the isolates so they are permitted to put this on their label, unfortunateli as I just put in a big order for this.

I purchased this from Amazon, (now sports, unflavored) 51waorXwpgL.jpg it mixes very well up. I also purchased powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Unflavored too!

sorry I tried to minimize the picture, LOL

Thanks Patty!

I just had a fill last week and my doctor said no more protein bars and shakes. Real food only! Does anyone know why I can't have them?

I use Wheybolic Extreme (half measure) 60 from GNC. Most of the ready made shakes are lacking in nutritional value' date=' so it is only in the rare instances for convenience that I use the Atkins shakes.

As you look for a product you like, look for the ingredient of "whey isolate protein". That's the best Protein nutrition choice for bariatric patients. [/quote']

So Atkins isn't considered a top choice?

I use muscle milk or light muscle milk. I can only drink the rtd ones though as I hate ALL protein powders. I drink one daily

i buy whey isolate at walmart (15 dollars a tub). 30 grams protein per scoop. comes in many flavors. chocolate (my fave) cookies and creme. def helped me during all my liquid diets (pre and post). i still drink one for breakfast daily w/ff milk. (add 8 grams of protein for the milk). if you freeze it, it is almost a milkshake of if u freeze longer, a slush. Tastes great and way less expensive then buying it from the drs office. (i bought one (same nutrition values and it was 30 dollars).
