Protein Powder is pre mixed into all of my gross disgusting processed manufactured pre op diet food.

Does all Protein powder smell and taste bad, or should I just assume this company uses a gross brand to make their products??

I need some suggestions on good tasting protein powder.

My surgery is scheduled for July 16ty, but I had lapband surgery 4 yrs ago and had to use Protein powders. I spent $160 on GNC.com and hated everything I got. My nurse said drink Isopure Fruit drinks. They taste like Jolly Ranchers. They don't. Not even close. Couldn't drink even 1.

I bought a $15 jug pf Protein powder from Walmart (can't remember the name) and it was ok. Not great but not gaggy. This time I thought Id try to sampled a few brands/flavors before I actually need them. Last week I got my 12 sampled pkt of various flavors from Syntra nectar. I've only tried one (roadside lemonade) and its darn good. I ordered some unflavored Syntra nectar so I can add it to my own drinks (juice, smoothies, pudding, etc). Haven't gotten it yet but I've heard good things about Nectar.

My advise: go to Amazon.com and browse the protein powders. Many brands will send u sample packs for pretty cheap. Try a few before u take a mortgage out and buy sguff u hate.

Good luck...

Btw, its Syntrax Nectar. My spellcheck on my phone is working overtime lately. Hopefully it actually comes out with an x at the end, not Syntra

I use Bariatric Fusion. I have grown to like them. chocolate mousse and chocolate mint with choco chip flavors are my fave.

I use Unjury and I can't smell or taste it at all (in unflovored). They can send you a sample pack. They also ship FAST.

I really love the Syntrax nectar in vanilla bean torte, chocolate truffle, and double stuffed cookie. I make a double shake and mix 2 scoops of powder to 8 oz Water and 8 oz unsweetened vanilla almond milk. The chocolate truffle with the almond milk tastes like melted chocolate almond ice cream,....no aftertaste!

I also like the unjury strawberry sorbet.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
