I haven't gotten a shaker yet and I am still experimenting with different Protein powders but so far, 2 were vile, 1 was good but banana flavored so not one I woud drink daily, 2 were ok but won't order full sizes of them. Been making in the blender with unsweetened almond milk and ice and the consistency is either 50% froth or in the case of chike it's the texture of cake batter and is gooey! So unless I find a really good powder that mixes nice, I will have to go to RTD Protein drinks.

I jus bought the muscle milk RTD and the EAS one too at target today so hopefully one of these is right for me. Thanks again

I like the taste of EAS too. I dont really "enjoy" drinking any Protein Shakes period (i drank them for way too long even before vsg), but when I really need to have one i usually grab the Premier Protein RTD from costco. It has the most Protein, so I feel like I am getting the most bang for my buck!

I have found that if I stick the shake in the fridge for thirty minutes, the froth/foam goes away and it's a lot easier to drink.

For RTD, I really like Muscle Milk Light Peach Mango but thought their chocolate flavor was horrific. Everyone has such different tastes! I also like the Atkins Advantage shakes but wouldn't drink them too often as they are kinda low on Protein in exchange for calories. I have ordered some of the Premier shakes but they won't come in for another few days. I'm looking forward to trying them.

Someone was posting about another company....About Time

They have awesome shakes and are lactose free and gluten free. The have the shake and go bottles. You add your choice of liquid to them shake it up and drink. They actually taste great. But you have to order them I don't know of where you can buy them. They do have sample packs to try.

Ok, I tried the Premier shakes and I cannot stomach them. Oy. The taste and the aftertaste made me want to gag. Still looking for a Protein Drink I can stomach. Crossing that one off the list.

I do the muscle milk RTD and Isopure RTD. As a matter of fact I had my first alcohol drink with 1oz vodka and 10 oz Isopure as the chaser....my tolerance for alcohol is awful....but I got 20 gms of Protein in while sipping!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
