My surgery was Jan 24th and I'm going on the 3rd week of my all liquid starting Tues. I am to drink 3 Protein drinks/day recommended by my dr for 3 weeks. They total about 70 g/day.

I think I'm allergic to it. Can someone recommend a good tasting high Protein Drink? And where to find it.

Hi...my surgery was on the 23rd!! The best tasting high Protein drink I have found is the Liquid Premier shakes. They offer 30 g protein in an 11 oz. carton and come in chocolate and vanilla. I actually like the taste of them, although I wish I could find the strawberry flavor!! The Premier website sells them, but is out of strawberry currently. costco has them in chocolate & vanilla for about $24.00 for 18 cartons. Hope this helps.....best of luck to you!!

I, too, drink Premier Protien (chocolate). I like the taste AND it's convenient because it's ready to drink. I pour mine over ice because I like it super cold. The truth is, however, that everyone's taste is different. It took me a while to find one I liked. The problem with buying a case of them at costco is if you don't like them, you're stuck with an entire case. So, maybe buy a 4 pack online and see if you like them.

I drink the Pure Protein rtd cans. They have 35 grams per 12 ounces. I use the vanilla ones in my morning coffee. I use a half a can per cup of coffee so I sip on them for an hour or so. I don't like the taste of any I have found but when I mix these with my coffee its like I have a great tasting mocha-ish drink! :)

I too use the pure Protein brand of pre-made drinks in a can. Walmart has the Choc and Vanilla kind..or you can order different flavors online

I haven't had my surgery yet, but I heard about the Premier Protein shakes and actually purchased a case at Sam's club. haven't tried it but it has HIGH Protein like 30 grams or something. I will try one tomorrow just for the heck of it. :-) still wondering if they can be purchased individually someplace

Premier Protein shakes are really good!!! Love the chocolate and vanilla! If you want to order the strawberry, go to Costco.com and order them online. I haven't had any issues getting in all my Protein for the day at all.

Try contacting the company. I live in a very small town...actually a village. I was more than happy with paying $2.29 each until lo and behold my grocer started carrying them at $1.79 each. I try to leave one or two behind because there are a couple of others that buy them too. Best Protein drink EVER! Shamrock farms is the name on the bottle. Hope they catch one.

For my pre opt I used the GNC Lean 25 , come in vanilla choc, or strawberries and cream. The strawberries and cream was my fav. Cannot drink them no more became sick of the taste , but started off good. I do the Vitasport Protein 7 now vanilla flavor, it is 34 grams of Protein in one scoup and you can mix with many things. I get the Vitasport from Nutri shop. Good Luck. :-)

I love Rockin' Refuel! My son had gastric sleeve in April of this year and he was telling me to try them. The only store that carries it in WNY is Tops supermarket. They are always out of them. Today, I asked the dairy manager if I could order 2 cases and he said YES!!! They will be in on Thursday!

Great stuff!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
