Ok, I know there are a gazillion threads on Protein Shakes, but I don't know how to find them on my phone! :) I'm trying to locate a Protein Shake that tastes YUMMY! I like EAS soy Protein shakes in vanilla, but there are 19 carbs in a serving and too many calories. I just purchased muscle milk Protein Powder in chocolate, and it tastes NASTY!! :-( I'm going to be throwing it away! I have been looking through reviews on Amazon and syntax has great reviews, but so do sooo many others! Plus there is an endless selection of protein powders! Should I just go with the Syntrax Nectar? What tastes GREAT plus has low carbs? If it matters, I am looking for a chocolate flavor so i can alleviate the cravings lol!

Syntrax matrix mint cookie- Many people claim it is by far the best Protein Shake they have ever tried. I agree- Absolutely decadent. Syntrax matrix also has some other chocolate flavors. I mix it with unsweetened almond milk. I look forward to it every day because I enjoy it so much.

What is PB2?

PB2 is a Peanut Butter powder. Its low Cal fat. It comes plain Pb or chocolate flavor. Both delicious. I buy it from my des office. But ive seen it cheaper on baratric advantage.com

I bought oh yeah strawberry Protein shakes from Amazon. I think a 12 pack was $36. It's 14 ounces and 32g of Protein and it's 220 calories with 3g of sugar. It really tastes good especially cold. It doesn't taste chalky at all but rather like a healthy milkshake.

I also like Premier Protein shakes from costco

The Syntrax cookie mint one is good too.

Good luck!!

My 3 favorite are Syntax Matrix chocolate, Unjury vanilla, & Unjury unflavored. They meet all the nutritional requirements, mix well hot or cold, in drinks or food, & taste great, not gritty.

Question about Syntrax Matrix. I've heard mixed things about it being that it's not straight whey isolate but a mix and we are suppose to have just whey isolate. Any input on that? I've yet to try the matrix but I've heard mint cookie and Cookies and cream are delicious and I really want to buy some but I've been unsure because it's not straight isolate.

I have tried several. Muscle milk, muscle milk lite, oh yeah, body fortress (wal mart), and a couple others I can't think of right off.

I really like the Body Fortress stuff. I have no issues with it at all. I mix with milk though, not so hot with plain Water unless you mix strong. I have the chocolate and vanilla. Love the chocolate, awesome with some Peanut Butter. I am not even a big vanilla fan but I like this. I mix it with Dannon greek yogurt and it's great. I even throw in some peanuts or cashews to add some Fiber and even extra Protein and it gives it some texture. It's not that expensive and may be worth a try if you have not tried it yet.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
