I hate protein shakes :-(

I'm in my liquid pre-op diet stage and I have no idea how I am going to eat 3 of these a day for three weeks :-(

Any advice???

  • K...I'm going to let you girls in on a little secret! I'm 10 days post-op and had 60g of protein yesterday. Syntrax makes amazing, heavenly protein power in a double stuffed cookie flavor among others

Hold your noise girl. It sucks! I hate protein shakes to the fullest and haven't found one I like yet so it's torture getting them down. The best one, if you can even call it that, is the "Premier Protein" from costco the chocolate kind. It is the best tasting, if you can call it that either lol, and has 30g of protein per shake. I have heard the "Nectar" shake powder in cappucinno and the chocolate truffle is delicious. Going to order some this weekend. Good luck. It sucks but you have to do it. Time to step out of the comfort zone and just do what you have to do even if you don't want to. This whole process is about doing things and going through things you don't want to. It starts now so practice it. It's a HUGE change. We are all here to support you and be that sholder to cry on. :)

I am amazed as too how many of you need to be on liquid diets for weeks prior to surgery. I was placed on 1200 cal.for one week and liquid for day before surgery. ..my surgery was last Wednesday. ..my husband Is scheduled for sleeve on 2/11 and he too was told only liquids day before surgery...well anyhow. .premier protein shake from Costco is best...especially when its very cold.

I really enjoy the Atkins cafe caramel Protein shake. I also enjoy the nectar that is the roadside lemonaide flavor. I mix a scoop with 16 oz of Water and a packet of crystal light. It tastes really good!

I was the same way about Protein shakes, but now I love my atkins once so much, I have one a day...

Good luck with everything!

I like the premier protein shakes too...the chocolate flavor is really good to me!

Anyone hear of protizyme?? People say it is good (reviews online) but that it is kind of expensive. I don't really care about the price if I can stomach it haha.

I mix a scoop of vanilla protein powder with a tablespoon or two of SF instant pistachio pudding mix with skim milk and a tablespoon of plain Greek yogurt. It's delicious.

Ok I'm with you on disliking protein shakes. What i have found to get my protein is Isopure clear per mixed and also fit frappe by big train. You can make it hot cold or blended with ice! Favorite!! I don't like the foamy texture. I'm a little three months out and 64 lbs down! Good luck!

You can buy single serve samples of Protizyme at Nashua Nutrition online. You can try the different flavors for $1.95 each rather than buy a whole tub. They sell Syntrax samples & others as well. It really helped me out 'cause ones I thought would be good really weren't.

I have tried several protein drinks. GNC has one called Wheybolic (not the plain Whey!!) that does not have a nasty taste. Even my daughter likes it. Also the Bariatric Advantage are good. They have many flavors on their website. What about Greek yogurts? My Dr lets me eat these. Good luck!

Costco sells premeir protein! It's the only thing I like so far

I agree Unjury is the best I have tried so far. I have actually tried many. Jay Robb vanilla is pretty good too.
