The only one I've found that I like is Premier Protein at SAMs club

I like Atkins shakes.

We are such individuals! I like Nature's Best - Extreme smoothies, both chocolate and vanilla.

Premier is the best I've found.

I'm not allowed to have Boost, or Ensure...NUT said too much hiden sugar, not enough protein per serving and high on the carb side.

So far, I've not found any Protein supplements that are tolerable. I've tried Syntax peach nectar, unjury and GNC's Protein powder. I was told not to do Boost due to the carbs, but am concerned that I won't be able to find anything palatable prior to my surgery the 13th of December. Any suggestions?

Right now I can choose the Protein I want, but the week prior to my date of 12/23 I can only have

1) 4 1/2 bottles of Boost Glucose Controlled daily,

OR

2) 4 1/2 cans of Slim Fast High Protein daily,

OR

3) 5 1/2 packets Carnation Instant Breakfast No Sugar Added with 1%

milk,

OR

4) 5 individual cartons of Atkins Advantage.

I was told that what calories there are, I need. They don't want me to go without some calories and nutrients every day. Then after my surgery, I can choose my own protein again.

I'm not sure, but most people said premier is good.

I wasn't tolerating protein shakes until I started freezing it like a slush and drinking that way. I like premiere now but couldn't stomach it until ifroze it.

Rockin Refuel by Shamrock Farms. It's not whey, but I couldn't get that stuff down.

It has a lot of carbs; it seems almost impossible to find a protein product without a lot of carbs that doesn't taste awful. Thanks for your help; I appreciate it much.

Thanks for that tip; I'll get some and try it!
