Hi All,

I'm fairly new to the boards and just started my pre-op diet today. I will be sleeved on 1/8/12-- whoo hoo!!! I cannot tolerate milk or milky substance things so I knew this whole Protein shake thing was going to be a challenge. So after much research I think I found something AWESOME! The "proteinblitz" by designer whey is brand new & 30g protein, 1carb, 120 calories, & 1g sugar. When cold it tastes like grape kool-aid.

Enjoy!! Please share if you've found something you think is "non-milky" and good also.

Thanks for the info, I am starting my journey and I am lactose intolerant. I was wondering how I was going to get the protein.

Where can I get this??

It's whey protein isolate? I'm always trying new stuff!

I just Googled where to buy, and many many many options came up.

Purified Water, Whey Protein Isolate, Phosphoric Acid, Natural Punch Flavor, Sucralose, Potassium Benzoate, FD&C Red No. 40.

Where can I get this??

I got it at the Vitamin Shoppe. Looks like they make fruit punch as well. I'm going to probably get a case from amazon.

Cool!!

Has anyone tried the Designer Whey "Protein 2 Go"? It's like a crystal light with 10g of protein. I haven't bought it yet, and was hoping for a review or two

Thanks for posting this!

I have. I have the lemonade one and the mixed berry. They're both okay. I "play with" the amount of Water to get the flavor I want.

It's an easy way to finish getting in protein that is needed.

Hope this helps.

I buy them at Vitamin shoppe, locally. You can get them online, as well.

What about the costco protein drinks? Are any of those any good? Would like to buy bulk if possible.

The premier chocolate pre made Protein Drinks are tasty. In my humble opinion. It tastes like chocolate milk but no chalky taste.

I have not tried the vanilla

Nectars by Syntrax has protein powder that has juice flavors. So far I have tried fuzzy navel and it is good. I mixed it with water and crystal light. Definitely a break from milk based protein drinks. Vitamin shoppe, amazon, bariatric pantry, and of corse the syntrax website all carry it, check it out.
