I am 6 days post-op, and trying to figure out how to make Protein shakes interesting long-term.

My favorite discovery has been ProtiZyme brand protein powder! Comes in the standard flavors, but so much better tasting than any I've tried so far. The Peanut Butter cookie flavor is my favorite. Another plus (at least to me) is that they don't get super foamy and thick, so you don't have the burps with every sip.

My next favorite discovery is the book "The Bariatric Foodie Guide to Perfect Protein Shakes". Great recipes! To incorporate more flavors, the author uses sugar-free flavor syrups (the kind they use at coffee houses and for snow cones), and sugar-free pudding mix. I imagine you could even use flavor extracts too! My fave is the Butterfinger Protein shake :-)

Maybe you could post some of your favorite recipies? The butterfingers sounds interesting...

Oooh, the butterfinger Protein shake is delish! It's a scoop of chocolate Protein powder, 1 TB PB2, 1 TB of SF butterscotch pudding, 1 c. milk (I use soy) and some ice. The original recipe also calls for SF sweetener to taste, but I find it's not necessary. I had one for dinner last night!

Ok, just made this with what I had on hand, poured almond milk into ice cube trays to use instead of ice. A little splash of almond milk to blend it all together. Yuuuuuuuumeeeeeeeee!

Saw this on Instagram, haven't tried it yet but seems like a good idea.
