ProtiDiet has been a lifesaver for me post op! It is 15 gm Protein mixed in 8oz Water. I am not only suck of milk based protein' date=' my sleeve seems to be not tolerating milk well. I LOVE the grape![/quote']

FYI, ProtiDiet protien "juice"drinks use hydrolized Gelatin as their protien source. This is also known as collagen.

I find this to be unfortunate. I was hoping I might have been turned on to a new (possibly plant based) protien drink. Guess not.

The search continues.

CHIKE for sure!!! I have spent so much money on these powders and could not stomach any of them for one reason or another, taste, chalky, aftertaste, consistency. A friend let me have a taste of her CHIKE banana shake and I was hooked. It is so smooth and creamy and no aftertaste. I honestly thought she made it with bananas. 28 grams of Protein per serving. Its just like drinking a banana milkshake. You can order from CHIKE nutrition website. They have a sample pack you can order with all of their flavors in it. I haven't tried the others yet but hear they are just as awesome.

I got the Chike sampler last week, I've tried all but the vanilla(I hate vanilla) and to be honest there are some things I like about Chike. It doesn't foam up like the others do in my Blender Bottle, it's a high protien Meal Replacement with tons of Vitamins & minerals rather than just a protien shake, & they don't smell bad either.

To me the banana flavor taste like banana pudding. The chocolate isn't bad either, but not really impressive

The other flavors, well, in my opinion were just horrible. The orangecreme didn't sound to appealing to me and I was right. The strawberry(had some sot of cream or something) flavor I was tempted to pour down the sink.

Oh wait I forgot about their coffee, that wasn't bad I guess, I don't really like coffee but it didn't make me want to throw it out either.

So I can give a thumbs up to Chike for the banana & their chocolate. But that's the only two flavors I will be purchasing from hem in the future.

Ijust went on the chike site. 11 g of carbs per drink seems high?

Yeah, especially when you at another 11g for milk. Their stuff tastes too artificial to me. I think they add a bunch of stuff to it to make it taste better. But that doesn't mean it's better for you. When I got a bunch of samples from different manufacturers, I was surprised to see how much more powder was in the Chike samples. But if it helps you get your Protein in, it's worth it.

I thought it sounded like alot too. I talked to my surgeon yesterday and he said not to worry about that. The Protein is whats most important right now, and before I found Chike, I was barely getting any protein at all. I just could not stand any of it.
