Ok I know im supposed to consume 60 to 70 grams of protein per day and after surgery thats gonna be tough sooo is it better to drink shakes that have 40 grams of protein per 20 ozs OR drink those little shots thatare like 40 + grams per 3.5 ozs?

I could barely stand those protein shots even though they sounded like a great idea. I've had them 2 or 3 times, and I don't think I'll do that again. I think some of them might have questionable protein sources too, so be careful reading your labels.

In our options class we were told the protein shots were the wrong type of protein.

I cannot stomach those protein shot. BLEH!

Those Protein shots are collegan protein which is made from boiled cow hides.

It's best to get your protein from a high quality whey protein isolate.

Ok, thanks for ur opinions! Sooo what do you guys think is best protein drink since you have all been there done that! And does it have to be clear for the first 10 days?

boiled cow hides!!!!! OMG - are you for real?

Yep, I am afraid so!

The nectar protein drinks are good, you mix them with water and it almost tastes like kool-aid

The Premier Protein shakes (RTD) are the best in my opinion. They are 30g protein each. i could not stand any of the powdered ones.

Ive heard the nectar ones are good too, are they clear?

yes a lot of the fruit flavors are clear from Nectar. I like them too.

I like GNC lean Protein Meal Replacement chocolate drink n powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken soup! The GNC is 25 grams n the unjury is 21

A word of caution - Even though the Nectar line is fruit flavored, it has a milky appearance when it's mixed with water. It also tends to foam so it can be a bit off putting. I think it's probably best diluted with more water than is indicated on the package and doctored with something to boost the fruit flavor. I think I'm going to try the grapefruit one over crushed ice.
