Isopure zero carb protein drinks...

Am I the only one that thinks the isopure drinks in the bottles are extremely sweet tasting?

Actually know, I drink one Cocotein which has isopure in it and it is really sweet. But I drink it anyway because it contains 20 gms of protein in 16 ozs. So you aren't the only one that thinks it is sweet. I use Unjury for my other protein supplement.

I'm still in the pre op stage. I know I will have to drink these the day before surgery. Thought I should try some out first. So far I'm liking the Syntrax Nectar flavors for protein powders.

I had lots of problems finding a protein shake I could tolerate they were all sickening sweet but for me the powdered isopure was not too sweet and that's the one I have stuck with! I even tried the syntrex nectar and that was still too sweet!

Pre-op I used the Isopure creamy vanilla and it tasted really good..after surgery not so good...

That's what I'm afraid of...taste changing! Is this a big problem?

I've always related to something I heard Richard Simmons say once...I love food and it loves me! Time for that to all change soon! :)

they told me in pre op group that your taste buds change well mine did and it changed not only taste of foods and drinks, it changed the way things smell as well. still can't bring myself to drink ocean spray grape juice powder mixes too sweet. can drink the white grape and peach ones but have to add extra water and can only drink maybe 1 a week and I am 5 months post op. I had bought a cabinet full of the boxes of ocean spray drink mixes and crystal light, and my children drink more than I do. Water is my favorite but it has got to be cold or full of ice can't stand warm water.

Oh yes your taste buds do change...there were things I use to have before surgery now I gag at the thought of it being in my mouth :(

Where do you find these drinks?

I found some at the Vitamin Shop. Also found them online but only able to buy them a case at a time. I didn't want a whole case and not like the taste.

Unjury protein powder is at Unjury.com. I found cocotein on GNC.com or even at a GNC store. Haven't tried Syntrex which I think I got at vitalady.com (some can correct me on that). Unjury and Syntrex you can buy sample pkgs, 1 serving, to see if you like it.

I buy the syntax nectar protein powder at HyVee grocery store. I have also found it at GNC. Single serving packets or in a bulk containers.

sorry for the re post. Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

That is nice, try before you buy.
