I used the zero carb. Learn from my mistakes. I'll summarize in IMO:

If you can get "Double Dutch Chocolate", get it. It has the most decent flavor of all of them. DO NOT mix it with Water. The first time or two you'll be able to stand it, but soon afterward it will start to nauseate you. Mix it with your milk of choice. If you're concerned with carbs get Hood's "Carb Countdown" milk. If you're not, I would recommend 2%, it helps to mask the flavor a bit. Do invest in some sugar free flavorings, found in the coffee aisle of most grocery stores or your local coffee house. "DaVinci" makes some good ones. I can recommend the Kahlua and Hazlenut in particular. And do mix them into your Protein drink, it will help.

If you are not worried about carbs from your powder, skip the Isopure and go with one called "Six Star". The protein counts are only like 1g different, and the Six Star tastes SOOO much better. I just had a recent RNY friend try it and she's hooked. In her words, "It tastes like a milkshae compared to that other crap!"

I did this:

That's the one I do also. I have to mix it with Water though, it tastes like cold Jello on speed otherwise. Eww. But it's better than the powder stuff :(

I can't stomach Isopure. Tried and tried and I can't do it. If you don't shake it up enough you get nasty thick floaties in it. Shake it up good if you insist on drinking it!

I still have 2 bottles in the fridge from the clear liquids phase. Just seeing the bottles makes me want to gag. I would rather drink my dog's pee! I even had a DREAM that I was cleaning up a puppy accident and in the dream I thought to myself "wait it's the 'tropcial' flavored Isopure!". Seriously.

LOL

I couldn't agree more. I had a sip of the alpine punch and searched the bottle for an expiration date, because there was no way a company would intentially sell something this gross. I was convinced it must have expired and gone bad...but no, it really was just that bad. I had my DH try it, who is not fussy and will eat / drink anything, and he spit it out. This was truly one of the foulest products I have ever tried.

GAG! yes this is a word I did say when I had to drink this stuff. I did mix it with gatorade to kill the flavor. Its just loaded with protein. I still have 2 bottles in my fridge.
