It's hard to recommend because what one person loves another person hates. You haven't said what it is you've been trying that you don't like. I prefer the pre-made drinks over the powders. The Atkins and the EAS are my favourites and can be bought at Walmart.

Try Syntrax Nectar Sweets, you can get them at vitamin shoppe for somewhere between $30 to $40, my favorite is double stuffed cookie and chocolate truffle, you can also buy samples there to.

ok thanks... samples sounds good,try it before buy the big container ;)

How far along are you? I eat a lot of deli meats to help me meet my daily Protein goals... I drink 1 premiere Protein shake a day. Once I am a few weeks out I dont think I will be drinking these shakes anymore. I figure once I can incorporate chicken breast and fish fillets to my diet I should have no issues meeting my daily protein goals.

good luck

well im 6 mos post op i was 255 im very short just 5 feets now im at 170.8 almost 85 pounds lost but i stall for 3 weeks,i think no im sure i wasnt making good choices,and i really wanna loose 45 more and the scale its moving too slow, so i need to go back to main rules:protein and Water,the most harder for me :(

Try adding a tablespoon of sf-ff Jello pudding or Gelatin powder to it. The cheesecake and white chocolate favors in Costco's whey Protein powder is what I use. The orange Jello in vanilla shake makes it taste like a 50/50 ice cream bar. strawberry Jello with a couple frozen strawberries in the vanilla shake is great.

It will add ~10-15 cal per shake, but worth it if it makes it palatable.

Good luck.

I am a noob at this stuff but have done my research. Get back to basics and drop your carbs to under 20g per day. For me I love seafood and meat so staying on my current diet of 6-800cal, 80+protein and less than 20g carbs per day is easy.

Think deli meats, pork center loins, lean beef, fish fillets and other sea foods. You would be surprised how fast your Protein adds up if you only eat these types of food.

Isopure protein smoothies...are yummie...they sell them at vitamin and health stores and each bottle has 32g of protein

You might also try the Torani Sugar Free syrups. I add different flavors into my Vanilla isopure shakes and they are delicious.
