Bariatric Advantage...

So I looked through every page on this forum to see if anyone had talked about Bariatric Advantage Protien shakes. My Doctor gave me a list of shakes they recommend and this is one of them, But there isn't anywhere I can find that you can buy samples and they are to expensive to just buy without knowing what they are like. Has anyone tried them or been able to find samples.

If you log into their site, they have individual packets of meal replacements and bottles. Those are the closest things to samples that I found to buy. I got one of each flavor to try. The bottles are nice beacuse you can just put the water in and shake. You drink right out of the container, very conveinent.

Personally, I think they are very protein tasting, but I can't stand most protein drinks at all. That is just my opinion. Everyone is different.

Good luck to you!

They are expensive and you have to mix them them yourself. I like Premier Protien shakes from costco, the chocolate flavor. They are ready made and taste like choc milk to me.

I like the Bariatric Advantage strawberry and banana, how ever I would never have bought it at full price, I got luck and was able to by some from another person who had invested in all 3 bags and did not like them.

Maxx from GNC or the Vitamin shop are close in nutrients to Bariatric advantange. Go to gnc , they have lots of samples for sale, HOWEVER watch the carbs in them. Many of the protien drinks have large amounts of carbs we do not want!

I liked them fine pre-surgery, but post surgery, it took sooooo long to drink and they just seemed to get thicker and thicker upon sitting. It got so I was gagging whenever i tried to drink one. I use syntrax twisted cherry mixed with lemonaide.

My Dr sells the RTD singles of BA. I tried strawberry - it was ok, and tried vanilla - BARF omg omg omg I couldnt make it taste decent! I added SF Syrup and even Splenda but really had to just drink it and not focus on the taste!!

I bought samples of Syntrax nectar and they are ok. Neat flavors.

Good luck :)

I have tried several other brands and I don't like them at all. However, I love the Bariatric Advantage Strawberry shakes. I did try the chocolate but I was not as happy with the chocolate as the strawberry. However, I don't know after surgery it may be another story. If it is too thick you can thin them down by not using as much liquid. I use the Magic Bullet with them.
