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.

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!

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.

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.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
