If you're going to use powder, definitely get a shaker bottle with a metal ball. I like GNC Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60. 3 scoops = 60 grams protein; and the flavor is good. It's expensive, though. Occasionally, GNC runs Daily Deal specials on ebay.

I've tried quite a few and hated them all. But someone had posted how good Premier Protein from costco or Sams Club is. I tried it and love it! While you can still tell it's a Protein Shake its the best I've tried and even satisfies my chocolate cravings. :)

OK. You must try About Time. The birthday cake flavor is the best. It's a little pricy, but so worth it!!! Seriously!

I posted about it in the nutrition, Protein shake thread.

Their website is www.tryabouttime.com. They have free shipping & will send you samples!

I like the EAS Advantage Carb Control shakes. They come in 4 flavors and you can pick them up at Wal-Mart and most grocery stores.

i recently started using the chocolate Peanut Butter flavored powder by body fortress. i like it. mixed with 8oz skim milk, it's just under 200 calories with about 30g Protein. and i like the taste. i get it at Walmart for about $15 for 24 servings. not bad price considering the Unjury was $23 for 17.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
