I really like the fuzzy navel by Syntrax and the Any whey

I like Unjury flavorless to add to things like Crystal Light, puddings, and yogurt.

I have also used Arbonne and like it but I'm not sure of their protein make-up so there

might be better ones available.

The easiest shake for me after I was banded or had fills was 1 cup of water or soy milk,

plus 1 scoop chocolate Whey protein powder blended with a frozen banana.

Yes, I hated BA shakes too.. SO GLAD I didn't order a lot of them! There are many messages about shakes, many people try samples from the Vita Lady. (Look in the regular VSG section of this forum)

I don't tolerate Splenda or sucralose that well (it creates a sickinly sweet taste in my mouth that will last 1-2 hours or so after or drinking.) Qivana’s METABOLIQ is made with Steveia and tastes the best! 251.609.5408 is a local distrubuter or you can find someone in your area who does Qivana. I vote these for best taste, although the calorie/protien ratio (I think it is like 200 cal/15 grams of protien) is not as good as the following VHT shakes:

But I did find I like these shakes BEST FOR ON THE GO..

VHT Extreme smoothie vanilla Cream, chocolate or strawberry. Cheapest place to get them http://www.vitacost.com/productResults.aspx?ss=1&previousText=vita&Ntk=products&Ntt=extreme%20smoothie

Your doctor may also let you use greek yogurt blended or cottage cheese.. I like Fage at Publix.. it has 120 calories & 20 grams of protien for a cup! Also some doctors will let you get protien Soups.

thanks everyone for the ideas....i will try them...
