Protein shake recommendations

I don't want to spend a ton on them, and I've never liked any of them, can't get past that powdery feel to them. Anyone know one that is similar to slim fast, I have been able to tolerate those.

  • All good suggestions, also if you are looking for prepared shakes, the Atkins ones are pretty good.

  • I like the lowcarb choc. EAS. They are premade in little silver cartons. I keep them very cold...much better that way. I hope you find the ones that work for you.

  • Costco's are ready to drink.

For me, it's not necessarily the sweet taste of slim fast, it's not having that powdery feel to it that protein drinks have. That's what I'm looking for, something that's lacking that feel.

Vitamin Shoppe has a great one. It's Body Teck mint chocolate flavor. 25 G protein and I mix with light soy milk.

I ordered the double stuff cookie made my syntrax from bariatricpantry.com

I love Pure Protein chocolate... It has 130 calories and 25 grams of protein.. and it tastes good! the best I have tried in the last year and a half!

Isopure from GNC has 50 gram protein for two scoop shake, it's not bad and low carb.

I'm on body fortress...it taste good and it's 52g of protein...and it taste like hot chocolate...u can get it at stater bros or Walgreens... When were u banded??

Amazon has Syntrax for $32.41 (2lb). It's a little less expensive than Bariatric Pantry & it qualifies for Super Saver (or Prime if you have it) shipping. You can get it even cheaper (30.79) if you do Subscribe & Save. I LOVE their cappuccino flavor. Fuzzy Naval is also good.

I use http://www.bariatricchoice.com to order my protein drinks and snacks from. This is the only place I have found that is affordable and taste great.
