Protien Shakes/Powders

Hey guys,

I am posting again since no one is really answering in a different category....

I am just starting this journey of getting approved for WLS, but I have been reading that a lot of people advise to get lots of samples of protien shakes before hand to see what you like. Can anyone tell me what is a good way to go about getting samples? Can you just buy individual pakets of protien powder, or one single shake? Can any one recommend a good tasting shake? Any additional info would be great as well :)

Thanks!

    You can also order sample packs of Syntrax nectar BJs Bariatrics. You get to choose 11 different flavors for 14.99. http://www.bjsbariatrics.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=bjb&

  • I would recommend googling "protein sample packs" that should give you a variety to pick from. I personally chose syntrax nectar&sweets and I ended up loving several of them.

    For me, it has boiled down to cost and convenience. I am currently not picky so premier from costco fits thst description. I also want a guzzle and go shake. I do not want to get caught up in mixin

Thanks for all the help guys!

I really enjoy bariactric advantage birthday cake...but I just buy a few samples at the doc. It's not something I'd want every day! It's a great treat!

Just made a delish smoothie/slush ...ice, scoop if naked protein (29grams), a few slices of frozen peaches, a packet of nectresse and a tbs of bariactric advantage white grape elixir (10 grams) ....so nearly 40 grams of protein and only carbs were the 4 slices of peach. I am gonna try a few frozen berries next time!

NaushuaNutrition.com Is where I ordered samples from. They have tons of different brands to choose from.... With that said I can't stand artificial tasting sweeteners and have found BSN-synta 6 chocolate milkshake and strawberry milkshake are actually really good! They reminded me of slim fast. I also really enjoyed the unjury chicken soup to change it up from sweet to something savory. Good luck!!!

I just got my sample pack of the Unjury Protein Shakes. I am drinking the Vanilla one right now and it's not bad. I put the 1% milk in the freezer and then added the powder. I think it would be better to make the shake and then put it in the freezer. It will mix better. But I have to say after drinking the Bariatric Advantage (YuKKKKK) this one is pretty good. I hope I can tolerate it after VSL. I

will also be getting the Premier to try as well.
