Good Protein Drinks



Recommended Posts

Absolutely hate the taste of Protein Shakes. I think most of the ones I tried are smelly and I can't get them down. I start gagging. Does anyone know some clear Protein choices or something that is tasty?

The strawberry sorbet from Unjury is pretty good.

The nectar brand has some good favors too.

I prefer EAS - chocolate, this is pre-mixed. Must drink while they are quite cold. If they still seem to potent, you can add a cup of FF milk and it really just tastes like a glass of chocolate milk plus goes from 17 grams of Protein to 25! Keep trying. You'll find something.

I use EAS powders with either Skim Extra milk, or light soymilk, and doctor the crap out of them with good quality additives and SF syrups, sometimes a bit of fruit or veggie juice. That works, and I actually look forward to having them. Had what I call a PBJ one this morning, yummy.

In a pinch I use the EAS low carb drinks (AdvantEdge). I prefer strawberry of the flavors, and tolerate them best when they're super cold, just shy of being frozen. Once they warm up they're gross. Unfortunately they're usually warm before I can finish them, so I drink them over the course of several hours, re-refrigerating them as I go.

I was at Sam's Club today and just bought the Premier Protein shakes that a lot of WLS & body builders people seem to enjoy. Haven't tried them yet, but one is in the fridge for tonight. 30g of Protein in like 11 oz - that's really good. The EAS ones only have 17gm. I'm all about protein dense, because I still have capacity issues.

Oh I didn't like them when I had my band, but I'm also enjoying the nectar Proteins by Syntrax. 0 cals, 0 carbs, 26g Protein per scoop. I mix a scoop and a half with cold Water, a packet of either SF lemonade or strawberry lemonade drink mix. Over ice. The first drink or two always strikes me as weird, but after that it's a flavor that I could best describe as lemon cream.

So far their lemonde flavor is the only one I like. I've tried the fuzzy navel and literally spit it out. I used to be able to drink it OK but my 'buds are changing.

      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! 😞
