My favorite is chocolate peanut butter flavor, I get it from Walmart. It's like 16 bucks for 2 pounds. It has 26g protein per serving. There are a lot of different places and favors to get it from though. I found a few places that had small size ones I could try first before I bought the big one to make sure I liked it.

What about naseu does it upset ur stomach in the beginning? I have been in it for 2 Weeks I am not a bigger drinker a major down fall if mine but am getting ready for surgery and really trying? Any suggestions?

I use Syntrax nectar powder. A big tub of it is a little pricey, but it goes a long way. So far it's the best tasing I've found, and there are a lot of different flavors. I get mine in bulk from The Vitamin Shoppe, but first I tried a sampler pack to see what I liked. I got it from here:

I like to blend in things like frozen fruit, PB2....right now my fave is a spoonful of cocoa powder with a spoonful of intant coffee powder...it tastes like a cafe mocha! Also like cocoa powder with a few drops of mint extract. Believe it or not, using a couple spoonfuls of either sugarfree Jello powder, or pudding powder to flavor the shakes is great too. Hope this helps!

Thank. You those sound great does the vitamin shop have the samplers or just the bulk I can go to Orlando to.one about.a hour way.

You can also order samples of Matrix (mint cookie, cookies and cream, etc) from MyBariatricPantry.com. If you have any food allergies then you may want to be careful about which ones you buy, as most powders are processed on the same equipments as some of the top food allergens. :)

If you get sick of the chalkiness of the powders, or just want an affordable grab-n-go protein shake, Slim Fast just started making high protein/low carb shakes. They are the same size as the regular SF shakes, but they have 20g of protein and 2 net carbs. I have found a chocolate kind and a vanilla at Walmart. It is $5 and some change for 4. They taste really good.

Darn those Slim-Fast people for putting iodine in their product! :(

I really like the slim fast protein drinks. I'll be purchasing those suckers for my post op for sure.

I love premier shakes ! 30 gms of protein 1 gm of sugar 160 cal and there delicious!!!

I like slim fast too but the protein is not that high vs premier that has 30 gm protein

I personally like powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury the best. Little pricier . I got mine at the hospital pharmacy but you can buy it online in many places. I use the vanilla and add sf Jello pudding mix. The pistachio is my favorite!

I've tried nectar in the double stuffed cookie and chocolate truffle flavors and they are really good, too.

What are the best tasting, highest quality clear protein powders for post op?
