Hello, my surgery is in 3 weeks and I'm trying to get a feel for the best tasting Protein Shakes. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks!!

I drink Premier Protein RTD and that's it for shakes. I also drink Isopure Zero Carb, which is like a fruity drink with 40g of Protein.< /p>

I am a big fan of unjury chocolate splendor and Unjury strawberry sorbet.

Muscle milk is pretty good.

Unjury chocolate Splendor is delicious. Pure Protein ready to drink is good. However I won't use any of these because of sucralose/Splenda in them. I also mixed Isopure with Crystal Light. I have so many sample packs of Unjury. Oh well.

The only thing I can really tolerate is Premier Protein...and I have to chug it in the morning to get it down. LOL. I liked Muscle Milk before surgery, but after surgery it started giving me a real bad case of "The Hershies"...if you get my drift. :-)

Don't trust your farts for a few weeks. You're welcome. :-)

I don't like any of the RTD (I did okay with Premier Protein at the beginning but now they gag me). My powders of choice: Syntrax Matrix orange cream, banana cream, strawberries & cream, milk chocolate, mint cookie. Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard vanilla ice cream & caramel toffee fudge, Unjury chocolate splendor, Chike Iced coffee & Chike Banana Magic (I generally only use a half serving of Chike because otherwise the carbs are too high).

Immediately after surgery I did a lot of Syntrax Nectar (fuzzy navel, Roadside Lemonade, lemon tea, twisted cherry) and Unjury chicken Soup.< /p>

You won't have much capacity following surgery so find a shake/mix with a high level of Protein which will give you more bang fir the buck. Isopure no carb mix with 12 ounces of milk gives you 68 grams if protein. That one shake will satisfy your daily requirement.

Muscle milk light (20g) and pro (40g) are both good. I get light at Costcos.

How about a no flavor Protein mix, is there one that tastes better than another?

How about using some davinci sugar free Syrup to flavor them. I use Cherry flavored in my chocolate Unjury shake and it's so good. Tastes like a chocolate covered Cherry but they have lots of flavors!

I was thinking the no flavor powder Protein to add to meals.

I used Unjury plain. They aren't really no flavor so get small quantities to experiment.

I use Unjury also--Strawberry Sobet with Crystal Light Lemonade and Vanilla with Crystal Light Orange. One of each each day with an 8-oz. glass of milk gets me to my Protein supplement requirements.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
