I tried Premier Protein and it taste like drinking a milk shake. It's really good.

I use Premier Protein that you can get at Sam's or costco. They taste exactly like chocolate milk out of the dairy case and the great thing is they are 30 grahams of Protein each. The vanilla taste just like the chocolate to me but have a little powdery feel so I just get the chocolate now.

I can sometimes handle muscle milk light. Mostly (now post op) I am drinking Isopure. Not a lot of calories, but good Protein and not terrible. The flavors that are the red/purple/mango&peach are the ones I can drink. I add Water to make them less sweet. They are online & at GNC.< /p>

I tried several and I found that Premier Protein's are the best out there. Reasonably priced too.

I like the premier Protein as well......someone suggested adding 2T dry, nonfat milk and 2T of PB2 (a Peanut Butter powder) to their chocolate shakes.......I was getting bored with the Premier Protein drinks, so I put that all in a blender with the chocolate, and it was quite yummie.

The nice thing about the premier is they are ready to drink, grab and go

I LOVE New Direction shakes, Soups and puddings.

Also GNC powder ( vanilla) mixed with diet Snapple. ( wide mouth jars are a plus)

Awe...don't feel bad. Just keep trying. Maybe you can add one of the Torani flavors to it such as caramel, hazalnut, or vanilla. Some say they have tried that which make it better for them. Plus they are sugar free.< /p>

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
