Favorite Protein Shakes/Supplements?

Folks,

What are your favorite Protein shakes/supplements for pre-op diet and post-op?

Anyone had any luck finding organic/non-gmo protein shakes/supplements?

Thanks!

My fave is Premier Protein, chocolate. I keep them in the coldest part of my fridge, and when I know I'm going to want one I take one out, shake well, and put it in the freezer. I leave it 25-30 minutes (freezer at home) / 55-60 minutes (freezer at work). At the end of that time I shake well and drink. I love the very-cold ice-shardness.

they have me on optifast and they suck, after surgery I will use Premier they are good

Ive started using Bariatric Fusion and they are awesome but I also heard that Unjury shakes were really good too. Unjury also has a chicken flavor for soups and broth and a cheese sauce. They sell a started kit that has samples so I wil be trying them next!

I also love Unjury"s Chocolate Splendor...BUT I am currently avoiding all of them because I do not lose weight with Splenda/sucralose...which, alas, is in almost all of these things.

The unjury chicken Soup is good, but do NOT make the Water too hot, it curdles big time.

I think I will probably have to mix it with more than just Water but it will be worth it to bypass fake sugars which are a curse for me.

Amazon has 2 brands 1 is called Blue Bonnet and 1 is Davinci brand. Both are made with non- gmo whey. I use the blue bonnet.

I love the GNC pre-madeTotal Lean shakes. I also like EAS AdvantEDGE Carb Control Chocolate protein shakes.

I'm using premier chocolate. My favorite!! Loved them before and now even after surgery (January 28). Even better insurance is picking up the tab for them and delivering to my door monthly.

I use Unjury Chocolate Splendor, with PB2, ice and skim milk. Another good one is Chocolate Splendor with Torani Sugar Free Salted Carmel Syrup. Unjury French Vanilla with PB2 is also good.

For the pre-made shakes I se Premier Protein in Chocolate or Vanilla, available at Sam's Club. Atkins shakes are also good. Both Premier and Atkins have lower amounts or carbs with healthy doses of Protein

I have GNC Optimum Nutrition - LOVE it!

I love (LOVE!) Chike. I have it every morning.

I also like unjury chocolate splendor, but only have that on rare days when I need 2 Protein shakes.

I've been loving Muscle Tech protein powder. 120 cals and 20 gr of protein per serving. Tastes great

Oh wow! How did you get insurance to pick up the tab?

I love the premier chocolate. Every morning or evening I make a cappuccino like shake by using one premiere chocolate, I tbsp caffeine free instant coffee, a few ice cubes and a little artificial sweetener. It's frothy when I Blend it in my magic bullet and I feel like I'm cheating, its so good!!
