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???

Yes so far it's the one I will get. Liked it better than anything else. Will have to try a couple others too.

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!

Doesn't the Atkins shakes have a lot of sugar?

Have u tried doing half a scoop of Protein and half a scoop of slim fast shake mix?

Is there a lot of sugar in the slim fast?

I don't think the Adkins ones have a lot of sugar. Not sure about slim fast. I tried a sample pack from unjury online it is really good. Either no sugar or very little and I think 21grams of protien and 100 calories per scoop.

So far I've tried the vanilla Designer Whey powder (icky by itself and not very sweet. I ended up adding some Sugar Free vanilla syrup and it was better). I like the vanilla EAS powder better. I didn't need to add anything to it. I use Silk light soy milk and a few ice cubes in the blender.

Strangely, I really liked the premixed Designer Whey which is why I bought the powder. Atkins premade shakes taste okay: I've tried the strawberry and caramel cafe, both so-so, and the vanilla is my favorite. They only have 2 carbs and 15g protein.

Is there a lot of sugar in the slim fast?

In half a scoop there is 5 grams. But even a quarter of a scoop is noticeable to me. I add it till it tastes a little better but never more than a half.

Oh, I got it on amazon for $35. Sooo amazing!

Do u mix it with milk or Water?

Skim plus for added Protein...35 grams for 8 fl oz
