Clear Liquid Protein Drinks (That Taste Good)

I've been on a clear liquid diet longer than most due to a leak and abscess. This site, some wonderful peops suggested to me Isopure protein ready to drink (RTD) bottles. I haven't found one that I like yet. However, the lady at Vitamin Shoppe was a bodybuilder and suggested this other clear liquid protein to me.... it's wonderful! It's called Cytomax Pure Protein Performance and they have three flavors: watermelon (red), tangerine (orange) and tropical (green). I haven't had the watermelon yet, but the other two are a bit tart at first.... but I really am enjoying them. I put them in a huge mug with ice and sip sip sip throughout the day. They have 40 g of protein per 20 oz bottles and nothing else is in the drink (essentially... a bit of sucralose perhaps). They are made of whey protein isolate (which is the second ingredient behind purified water). I got mine from Vitamin Shoppe but I have seen them online to order as well. Hope you enjoy!

Hows the price?

Thanx these sound good! I'm on mushy/soft phase now but I love trying new proteins to break up the monotony. Good fruity ones are hard to find.

My husband just went to get a few more of these (I'm on conf calls right now) and said they appear to have other flavors as well but that I don't know yet.... I hope you guys enjoy them! And for the price, they are 3.79 for a 20 oz bottle.

That sounds awesome! I'm gonna have to try them.

Oh my! I saw about your abscess. I haven't heard of anyone having this problem. What happen if you don't mind me asking. I was just sleeved on 4/3 & am still nervous!

I get sleeved 4/12. Im sorry wrong quote. It takes a minute to get used to the site how are u?

You guys are welcomed to ask me anything anytime... I was originally sleeved 3/5 and then d/c'd 3/7. 3/9-3/14 I went back in the hospital with pneumonia, then 3/19-3/29 I was in the hospital for a leak and abscess. I had a revision to my sleeve 3/20 as the staple slipped. My tummy necroted away from the staple and caused a leak. It happens to 1% of the population so no worries, I am the one for the year people. :)

I just got off of a clear liquid diet (yes since essentially 3/5) and I've lost about 51 lbs. in that time.

My tummy is now acting 'weird' whenever I try full liquids... so if you have input on that, hit me up please! :)

Bless your heart!! I hope things get better for you :) I am newly sleeve. Sleeved on 4/3. How did you know that you had a staple to slip? That sounds horrible!

I've been drinking the Pure Protein for a while now, and I love them. They are a little cheaper than Isopure, and a little sweeter. All I've seen are the three flavors (Watermelon, Tangerine, Tropical), if anyone knows of different ones, I'd love to hear about them.

Hey ThinningMike... the Cytomax pure Proteins are being remarketed as "whey (something I can't remember if it's whey isolate or whey protein) by cytomax". I buy them by the case and just an fyi. They aren't gone from Vitamin Shoppe (or anywhere else) but they are repackaged.

Sadly I was so happy that they weren't gone. What a robust life huh? lol
