Newbie Here-Best Protein Shakes for Pre-Op/Post Op Diet?

Hey Everyone!

I'm a Newbie and my surgery is scheduled for 9/2/14. I start my pre-op diet this Saturday but I don't know which Protein shakes to buy.

Can anyone suggest the BEST tasting Protein Shakes for the pre-op and post op diet?

I would Greatly Appreciate it!!

The best Protein is protein isolate. It is the most absorbable. There are 3 brands that I think of that are 100% protein isolate and have good ratings on taste: Syntrax nectar, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury (i.e., chicken soup), and Isopure.

For ready to drink, I love premier protein. Perfect for grab and go. If I have time to blend a smoothie/protein shake I love Unjury. I tried the isopure ready to drink as they are terrible! Don't buy too much before your surgery, because I was warned about this and I didn't listen. Your taste might change afterwards...I didn't like all the stuff I stocked up on before surgery....I'm almost 6 months out and still have a bunch of protein stuff I don't like!

I like the premiere protein shakes too. The chocolate is my favorite.

I really prefer Premier vanilla and it has the most protein of any shake I've found! I get it at Walmart. (Of course...)
