So I havwnt had my surgury yet but I have tried the protein shakes I have to be on for a week...5-6 a day of and omg are they the most discusting thing I have ever tasted.... worse than my own vomit... anyone have any idea how to make it taste better or get through it without gaggin and waring to wretch it all up?

I love the Pure Protein ready-to-drink shakes. Had one for breakfast actually.

They taste so nasty to me what flavor do you have?

Frosty Chocolate. I don't like the powder, but the ready-to-drink ones taste like chocolate milk to me. I also like GNC Total Lean Vanilla Bean. Good luck!

I like muscle milk , lean shakes from GNC and pure protein.. I don't do a lot of them unless I get a fill.. but sometimes if I'm in a rush I will drink one for breakfast....

After reading several posts about the same topic (Protein Powder), I have decided it is an acquired taste. What one person loves, another does not.

For example, I could not tolerate Bariatric Advantage Protein Powder. I tried three different flavors and wasted a lot of money. The one I do like (and, again, others may not) is the UNflavored powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury. I add it to my morning O.J. or yogurt. For shakes, I use the Dole Shakers (fruit flavored) and add the UNjury protein.

Keep experimenting and hopefully you will find one that works. I, myself, am a protein snob ---> so I completely understand your frustration

My doctor told me to get EAS carb control, u can find a 24 pack at Sams for about $27. They have chocolate and vanilla and they are pretty good. Hth

My favorite protein shakes are the Syntrax Nectar powders. They're shakes are really good. You can order a sample pack at BJ's Bariatrics. You'll be pleasantly surprised! Don't forget to put the water in first, then add the powder. It mixes better that way.

I love the premier nutrition protein shakes from Costco. They have vanilla and chocolate. I've tried a lot of shakes being 4 years out and they are by far the best tasting ones.

Add fruit , fresh or frozen, helps a lot. Just count the calories. Worked for me !!!!

I really enjoy the EAS Whey Vanilla Powder shakes from BJ's. With a shaker, fat free milk and lots of ice, it tastes like the vanilla shakes from White Castle. The next great thing is that is gives you 26g of protein. A 5lbs bag costs $32.00

At almost 2 years post surgery, I still drink this protein shake on an average of 3 times a week.

I too like the Nectar... they have many flavors, I prefer the chocolate truffle.... you can get a sample pack from them fro 13.99 shipped for 12 sample pack.... it's on their website http://www.si03.com/reg_index.htm .. it's a good way to try a bunch of their flavors without a big cost

I actually took a surprising liking to BOOST High Protein Rich Chocolate. And I am extremely picky. That's all I have now.

My doctor which im sure every doctor has there preference sugested pure protien well I found it but since I live in rual missouri all they have is frosty choco... and I didnt much care for it but have gotten alittle more used to it but still asked the department manager if she could see about getting me maybe 3 of the vanilla... im not sure if I would wanna try to cookies and cream although it does sound good lol

After trying several I locked in on the Premier Protein chocolate. I get by he case at Costco. One trick I learned on here is the COLDER the shake the more palatable it is.

The ONLY one I like is the GNC Lean Shake in chocolate
