I prefer the Premier Nutrition shakes. They can be purchased at costco or Sam's. 30g of Protein in each. Congrats and good luck on your surgery!

This is gonna be fun.

I'll give you a few.

Unjury- I like their chocolate splendor, & their chicken Soup flavor. The chicken is great when your tired of all the sweet stuff

*uses pure whey protien isolate

Nectar® by Syntrax- these have a few fruitier flavors. I like the fuzzy navel & cherry flavors best

*uses pure whey protien isolate

Chike meal replacement- this taste better than the other two but has more calories since it is more than just a protien supplement.

*uses whey Protein isolate & whey Protein concentrate

Premier Nutrition- this one is all about convince & taste. It uses multuple lower quality dairy based Proteins.

I use ready to drink in a can Pure Protein with 35gm of protein. On days I feel like making my own; then I use Jay Robb brand or Whey Gourmet (Peanut butter chocolate).

Question: does the nectar by Syntrax taste like crystal light and is it still a watery consistency or does it gel or thicken the Water?

It has the thinnest consistency I've seen in a protien mix, very close to Water. (definately thinner than skim milk)

No, I don't think it taste like crystal light. It seems to have a fruitier flavor than crystal light

To me crystal light has a somewhat harsh taste from the aspartame.

Being a whey protien drink, it does have a bit if a "milky" undertone.

Which is why I'm so picky about them. I just think certain flavors work better with this than others.

Another flavor you might try is the caribbean cooler this one gets good reviews. The only reason I don't like is because it has a distinct sweetened coconut taste to it (like pniã colada) that I just don't like.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
