So i thought it was the actual taste of Protein powders that I cant stand and I finally discovered that it isnt. Its that nasty vomit inducing smell!!

I am pre op and have about 2 weeks until my sleeve surgery and I must find a Protein powder that doesnt stink.

The unjury chocolate splendor is actually pretty tasty.. if I plug my nose, and until I take a breath afterwards. OMG gross.

I have tried a few brands at walmart, most of the unjury flavors and the smell of all of them makes me sick. How am i going to do this after surgery if I cant stomach these at all??

Our tastes change after surgery, so maybe you'll be lucky and they will taste good to your afterwards. I personally like the Premier Protein bars and shakes that are sold at Sams or costco. There are ways to make most of the Protein Shakes taste better: using splenda/equal, adding SF syrups like Torani and DaVinci, mixing the protein with other liquids to mask that taste.

You will eventually get used to the protein taste and it won't bother you as badly, but, just like beer and soda, it's an acquired taste.

Protein Powder drinks that I actually crave! No swelling of the whey & mixes instantly! It's called "Nectar" brand & it comes in various flavors...my favorite is the Cappachino - it really is awesome! They have chocolates etc, as well as fruit flavors like Fuzzy Navel and Roadside Lemonade etc. I first bought it at "Bariatric Advantage" online but have since been ordering through Amazon. I tried 5 other brands before finding the Nectar brand and gagged at how they thickened and smelled funny...I am hooked on Nectar brand!

does the nectar brand smell like protein? Its trully not the taste. My kid almost wrestled me for the chocolate splendor w milk from unjury but that smell omg...

WHEY PROTIEN SMELLS LIKE POOP HAVE YOU TRIED THE ISOPURE IN THE BOTTLE SMELLS LIKE POO

I have started using a liquid protein called YES WHEY and i get it at bariatric advantage . com It's fruit punch flavor, i mix it with Crystal light and water and i love it! I drink it all day. I can not stand ANY of the powders.

lol the isopure thats clear smells like poo too??? and you do not look old enough to be a grandmother

I can't help much with changing the smell (unless you use a different type of protien). But you might try using a sealed water bottle with a straw. This way you're not really smelling it.

LOL MEDOW YES I AM A GRANDMOTHER TO A BEAUTIFUL 7 MONTH OLD LITTLE GIRL.

Meadowesky - I drink my protein from a "shaker" bottle that mixes it too. it has a small snap open lid for when you want a sip, so I don't really smell anything...maybe it's the lid or just the flavor I chose, but I LOVE this brand, none of theirs have gagged me & I was ready to

give up on Protein drinks when I found it!

BTW- I was sleeved by Dr Nicholson in Dallas on May 24th.

I dont know if its the smell or the taste but i am three months post op and have not been able to find a shake i can tolerate. It took my hair to fall out bad ( what can i say im hard headed) for me to say i better find one i can get down. I am happy to say i found a recipe on the eggface website for peanut butter cup shake and it was soooooo good. It didnt taste or smell like a crappy shake at all. It was like a milkshake treat on a hot day. Next on the list to try is strawberry cheesecake shake.

Hi, I'm 3 weeks post-op and I hate everything about protein shakes and I need something asap could you please give me the info for eggface ?

Sure, it is: theworldaccordingtoeggface.com

Once on the website click home an then click Links & resources and scroll down to Protein Shakes and smoothies. There are a tone of them on there. I have made a few of her recipes and they are so good and easy on my sleve. If you have any issues or questions let me know.

can you just come here and make them for me? k thanks lol

I am still in the pre-surgery observation period, and I have a while until my surgery, so I haven't tried many protein drinks. However, I did order samples of several different flavors from Nashua Nutrition. They have the Nectar ones and tons of different brands, so this might be a cost-efficient way to find a few that you can stand!

I got the GNC unflavored protein powder and mixed 1/2 a scoop with my crystal light. I used those new insulated cups that have the plastic straws that you see everywhere so you cant smell it. Its not as much protein as a shake, bc I only used 1/2 a scoop but I figure its better than nothing :/. If you mix it really well so theres no bumps (sometimes I used a whisk) its OK. I'm over 8 weeks out now so I can usually get all my protein in with food now so I dont have to use it too much anymore, thankfully
