I'm still pre-op but decided to go ahead and try the protein. I bought the whey protein isolate powder in a chocolate decadent flavor. 60 grams for a serving. 1 gram of carbs, a half serving at a time would be 30 g. I mixed with skin milk and I was totally surprised. It didn't taste too bad at all. I hope I can still handle it after surgery.

You may want to consider getting something called PB2 which is mixed into chocolate protein shakes. I'm told it makes them taste like a Reese's Peanut Butter cup.

That sounds good. I'll have to look for that.

Thanks for the info. What is the exact brand and where did you get it? Do you know how many calories it has per serving? I am doing the already made shakes and would like one with more protein but have to watch my calories.

I also heard the peanut butter chocolate muscle milk protein powder was really good. The muscle milk brand has a lot of flavors to choose from.

I started with the pure protein brand of ready to drink shakes. 23 grams of protein and they were great at first but after about a month of them I can't even get them down. My suggestion is to change things up throughout it, so you don't get burned out like I did. Good luck to you!!!!!

I'm 3weeks sleeved I been having a hard time with protein shakes too they know me well at GNC I was on whey protein before surgery buy after I could take any flavors of it I mixed it with water, silk milk and still couldn't drink my NUT told me to try something else so I tried isopure powder and that didn't work so I been trying to consume my protein in every meal but 70g is hard when you can't eat much. So today I went back to gnc and the guy knew what to do even though I had a list he gave me an already mix isopure drink cold 40g per bottle and I was in heaven it taste so good I have brought it up yet thank god... hope this help!
