Protein Drinks And Shakes, What Ones Are Good?

I was looking online today for protein drinks and shakes that I will need after surgery. Was wanting some input from everyone on what they have liked best? I found these drinks called isopure and they look pretty good but haven't heard if they are good or not. Please anyone and everyone what have you liked>?

Several people have said Sentax Nectar mixes were good...Vitamin Shoppe has them in sample sizes, so I bought one chocolate and one vanilla...hope they are as good as everyone says.

They are pretty good. My WLS center actually sells sample packs of them which is really nice. The mint Cookies and cream one was my favorite, but they also have a mocha one that if you put with ice, tastes like iced coffee. I bet a little bit of decaf coffee mixed in would be good too. haven't tried that though so don't quote me on it. =)

Thanks Jordan. I'm not a coffee drinker, so I'm looking for alternatives as everyone says to add coffee...maybe I should start! Lol I would love to get a sample of those two! GNC only had choc and van

We actually bought some whey protein isolate from vitamin world last night and blended it with ice, skim milk, and frozen strawberries. It was really good. As for the syntrax, our grocery store carries it in the organic food section.

I use premier whey Protein from costco 30 grams of protein

Jay robb is an excellent brand for shakes. No grittiness or after taste

If you go to http://www.BJsBariatrics.com/ you can order a sample pack of 11 for $14.95. The nice thing is TNT you get to pick what you want. I've had the dbl stuffed cookie and the vanilla Bean so far and they are both good.

I can't drink syntrex nectar I have some samples if anyone is interested to purchase I also can't tolerate isopure either :(

You all need to try it works protein shakes they are so creamy! Look at my website www.Reynolds/ works.com

I also have various protein samples if anyone is interested pm me. Also have 200+ chewables calcium tablets to anyone interested.

I like the optimum nutrition pure gold protein poeders...especially vanilla creme and strawberry banana. Mix with nf milk is best...or i like coconut water...helps keep dehydration at bay.

Kathy...on day 10of 14 day liquid/pro...surgery is monday.

I forgot to mention...for ready made shake...muscle milk light from costco...both vanilla and chocolate are good...very cold.

Blessings on your new life.

i had tried isopure and it would take me forever to drink a half a bottle, i tried nectar the lamonade and it was awful, i couldnt stand the muscle milk or the boost they were both to sweet, i finally just got one that has no flavor and have been making smoothies with it
