Who hated protein powder but found a good on?

While in my weight loss journey I tried almost every protein powder out there. They were nothing but disgusting. The thickness, the after taste, and just plain nastiness doesnt sit we'll with me.

Please tell me someone out there had the same reaction but found something good?

Now Sports unflavored whey isolate powder. Absolutely no flavor & it doesn't make things thick that I add it to. I can mix it with flavored water, broth, whatever. I add sugar-free Torani, DaVinci or Walden Farms syrups for variety. Now that I'm on puree foods, I mix it in those to get to my protein goal.

The flavored powders I used before surgery now make me ill. I did try some unflavored powder from GNC while I waited for my order from Amazon. The GNC stuff did make things thick, but at least it had no flavor.

I HATE protein shakes...I spent tons of $$ right after surgery, trying to find something I could stand...only shake I can stand is GNC Total Lean Swiss Chocolate premade shakes....very $$$ & I have to drive two hours to even see a GNC...

I bought vanilla flavor and then added decaf coffee or low calorie drinking chocolate (choc/mint) with lots of ice and it definitely improved the flavour.

I like svelte by calnaturale. chocolate, cappuccino, vanilla, chai. yum organic and soymilk

I agree, I use Unjury chocolate splendor powder mixed with unsweetened almond milk and then I pour it into decaf coffee over lots of ice with a shot of sugarfree Torani hazelnut syrup.

I got so tired of vanilla, I'm drinking Syntrax Nectar : Strawberry Kiwi and Fuzzy Navel flavors , love them.

Body Fortress Chocolate was really good and very inexpensive! It taste just like chocolate milk. It wasn't gritty or too thick. It is 8 grams Total Carbs and 26 grams of protein.I tried Premier and it was disgusting.

Sounds good...I'll pick some up this week. Thanks for sharing.

I agree, these are amazing

I liked Premier before surgery but now it makes me nauseous. Mixing it with decaf coffee helps, but it still gives me diarrhea.

Eeekk that's not good. They should have a seminar once a month where you can try sample sizes of all the different brands. I guess the issue is that people seem to have different taste buds after surgery.
