I thought it might be a good idea to start an ongoing thread on favorite Protein powders and rtd products to help others find one they like. At least they will be picking from among what others have called "the best".

I will start.

My favorite morning whey is muscle milk light cake batter. Love the flavor. Second favorite morning whey is Matrix Cookies and creme (if i am out f my beloved cake batter). My favorite post workout shake is amplified Wheybolic 60 cookies and creme from GNC. I would be open to a better post workout shake if you have one. No real complaints about his one; I just know there is something better though. My favorite bedtime Protein Shake is Good Standard chocolate Supreme Casein. I guess I do like a good rich chocolate flavor at night. Casein at night really helps with leaning out overnight. Do not be afraid to try it. You can probably tell I like the "sweet" flavors for my shakes. Not into the fruit flavors.

Now what about you?

I love unjury Chocolate Splendor. I also like Body by Vi with sugar free butterscotch and peanut butter= butterfinger flavor.

I like the rtd Premier chocolate 30g of protein and you can find it at Sam's and Costco. Also one of my favorites is the mint cookie powder from Syntrax it has 23g of protein and yummy.

Where do you get the syntrax at, that sounds good.

Oooh! I didn't know Syntrax made a mint cookie flavor. Is this one of the nectar Sweets? I like the vanilla bean torte and the double stuffed cookie. One scoop of each in 16 oz Water is awesome!

You can buy Syntrax at vitamin shoppe or online at various sites like mybariatricpantry or amazon. Anything can be found at amazon.com.

I ordered it at www.mybariatricpantry.com they have a lot of really good stuff on that site and they sell sample packages of different flavors for you to try.

No it is Syntrax Matrix it is a powder you can order it at www.mybariatricpantry.com and it is so darn good!! My daughter will drink it on me if I don't watch her!

I like Syntrax the best - seem to be lowest calories/highest protein and lots of yummy favors. I tend to go with chocolate so that I can "spruce it up" with sugar free flavorings. Right now I am using Matrix 5.0 mint cookie for the first time. I use it in my coffee. It is very good, but being such a huge bag I am kind of in the mood for a change.

I use Premier (30g) and then if I'm low on my protein for the day I'll put the Premier rtd shake in a blender with a scoop of Unjury unflavored powder and a 1/2 banana + ice. That will get me about 55g of protein and a different flavor.

Anyone try whey protein powder from trader joes comes in chocolate and vanilla. Its also cheap. I bought it in prep for surgery... I'm trying to loose 20 lbs and thought it would help to replace a meal with it...

SMART protein powder

I really like Syntrax nectar Cherry, and Syntrax Nectar roadside lemonade in cherry, and raspberry SF Jello jigglers, respectively.

Also, G3 (Gatorade), is probably my favorite, followed by Isopure Zero Carb RTD.

My fav was unjury chicken (didn't upset my stomach in the first few days) and GNC Gold Standard in French Vanilla Creme. Pre-op, I preferred chocolate, but couldn't stand it post-op.

Can you mix up a Nectar and make SF jello with it??? Will it set up?

I make Jigglers like that (appx 1/2 the water), and it works really, really well. And the types I've had (Cherry and Roadside Lemonade) have even tasted really good!
