What have you tried? There are so many out there. I love the premier Protein ready to drink.

i've tried the a couple of the Protein Shots mixed with juice and such but the flavor is to strong for me and upsets my stomach, tried few different kinds of whey Protein and that upsets my stomach too. put that in shakes, smoothies and almond milk. Ill look into the Premier Protein too.

Here is two for you to try. I believe you can get samples on the website. One is Bariatric Advantage Meal Replacement shake the second is Syntrax nectar the fuzzy navel is good but they have a lot of them that are not milk based, The website is BariatricAdvantage.com. Good luck

GNC has a good one that i liked over the others. Comes in choc, vanilla, fruit punch, and Cookies and creme. My doc said i could put a teaspoon of Peanut Butter in mine but i never tried it. Mixed w Water it really isnt bad. Mixed w milk when i could, not bad at all. Keep looking, you will find one you like.

If you're just looking to increase Protein, there are several "shots" at places like GNC, etc. Some are pretty high in grams of Protein ( up to at least 45 grams ) to take at once. They are so small, less than 4 ounces, I couldn't imagine anyone not being able to tolerate a couple sips of them.... just hold your nose. :)

New Whey liquid PROTEIN™ is the most convenient, best tasting way to give your body the protein it needs. With 42g of complete protein in just 3.8 oz., New Whey is ideal for post workout muscle recovery or as a healthy dietary supplement.

I use Unjury Protein Powder from the weight loss center! I also mix in Peanut Butter powder ... From Giant Foods/Martins! The Protein powder is chocolate! Tastes like a Reece's peanut butter cup! Yummy!

      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!!
