What is best TASTING Protein shake?



Recommended Posts

Ok I am a terrible eater which is why I have a band that I hate and now I am looking at the sleeve...

I HATE the taste of all diet drinks... Yes I tried them and I realllly hate the taste.

I'm praying there is a Protein shake that is really good. Like chocolate milk good hahahaha. Or is there a good flavorless Protein that I could mix into a carnation instant Breakfast.

And I know I have to stay away from sugar but I really need help finding a Protein Shake that is so good my brain doesn't realize it's good for you LOL

Since I won't be spending money on fast food I can afford to pay a little more for good flavor ... I am NOT a coffee drinker. I like the basics chocolate vanilla strawberry and Carmel flavor if there is one.

Thank you guys for all of you wonder help!!'

My favorite so far has been Chike. Mainly because it's a thicker consistency that tastes more shake-like. The others I've tried are more watery, which is something I have a hard time dealing with.

Post sleeve- I was nauseated by sweet for months. Unjury is unflavored, strawberry, vanilla, choc, cheese sauce and ckn Soup. I was a terrible shake drinker! I preferred the thinner ones- odwalla, was not so sweet ! To enhance my protein-- I pureed meatloaf, thinned w beef stock-- don't look just drink--- it was heaven !! Pot roast the same ! I would add a scoop of the unflavored unjury powder-- only negative is can't heat it above 120 or 140 if clumps up. If you haven't found the webpage-- the world according to egg face-- she has a ton of good ideas. I was lucky-- I was at goal when I had my sleeve-- I didn't have to do the reduced calorie diet stuff again, which made life taste better. My absolute favorite is Gladiator from smoothie king-- it Has a whopping 45 gms Protein. Avail I'm 3 flavors and low carb.

I swear by Premier Protein chocolate shakes, tastes like thin chocolate milk to me. I toss in 1 scoop of some powdered chocolate soy Meal Replacement to make it thicker.

I also like EAS carb control chocolate shakes, but they are a little thinner and I can sometimes feel a little graininess on my tongue.

Both are low carb and high in Protein. I pick them up at Sam's Club and Wal-Mart. I think the EAS are 4 for $5 and the Premier are 12 for $19.

I use a local brand (I'm from buffalo,NY) but you can purchase them online. They are a little pricey but deff worth the money! I have not found one with more Protein less carbs and a little Fiber than this one. My doctors office even sells it. It's called Bariatric Fusion.< /p>

unjury Chocolate Splendor and chicken Soup flavor are really great. Also Chile Iced coffee and Mocha Decaf have helped get me through my 2 wk pre-op!

Protein shakes are all about personal taste. I think unjury chocolate Splendor is the best, I would mix it with skim milk plus and a few ice cubes, mix it up in the blender and it was just like a shake.

Unjury has sample size packs that you can order online. Good Luck!

Syntha 6 . I do the vanilla ice cream flavor with a few cut up strawberries and throw it in the blender . It's so good . Or the chocolate cake batter . For 4 oz , you get 22 grams of Protein .

I like Premeir Protein Vanilla with a dash of cinnamon in it. Tastes like a snickerdoodle cookie. (I read about that on these boards, but can't remember who to credit!) Best price is at Sam's Club. You can also mix sugar-free Jello powder or pudding mixes in it.

You might want to try some samples of different brands to see which ones tastes best to you. Good luck!

Post op I have to be on clear Proteins for 2 weeks and that has been hard for me to find. But I found ONE that I like its Isopure cocotein. 20g Protein, no carbs and 100 calories. It's coconut Water flavored. I've also liked the isopure Cookies and cream Protein Powder, and banana cream flavors. They aren't as nasty as many of the other powders, and give you 50g of protein, and 230 calories. If mixed with milk it's even more protein, but they are ok just mixed with water. I have also found that if I CAN't smell them- they taste better. (Any protein shake) so I tend to drink them with a cup with a lid so the smell doesn't smack me in the face.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
