I really like unjury chocolate splendor w malted milk powder. Another fave is yogurt with a little fruit, of course, sweetened (w/ Sweet N' Low) to the hilt!

Everyone's likes are very individual, but since you asked,

I like....

unjury unflavored and chicken broth

Garden of Life Raw Fit and Raw Protein original, chocolate and vanilla

Muscle Milk cake batter, banana and red velvet cake

Syntrax Matrix vanilla

Syntrax nectar cherry, apple, fuzzy naval and lemonade

Spirutein banana

Premium Protein chocolate, vanilla and strawberry

Did not like...

Any Isopure (only thing that ever made me gag postop)

Any Jay Robb egg (the whey varieties were OK)

Chike (too gritty). I just drink regular coffee and add premier vanilla or chocolate for Creamer instead

I also mix in PB2, Mio and Dasani Water enhancers, berries, peaches, mangos, bananas and Torani syrups for even more flavor options

Here are a couple of my favorites...I use unjury only. I always mix in the Protein powder last - it seems to reduce the froth. I use a Magic Bullet to mix my shakes.

5 ice cubes, 8 ounces Water or almond milk, 1 teaspoon Hershey's unsweetened cocoa powder - whiz together. Add 1-2 tablespoons of sugar free Torani peppermint Syrup and a scoop of Unjury chocolate Splendor, whiz again until blended. Tastes like a Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookie.

2-3 frozen strawberries, 1/4 cup blueberries, 1/3 of a banana, 8 ounces of almond milk or Water splash of sugar free Torani vanilla syrup. Whiz up in the Magic Bullet. Add one scoop of Unjury Vanilla and whiz again until blended.

5 ice cubes, 8 ounces water or almond milk. Whiz together. 1-2 teaspoon PB2 powder, 1 scoop of Vanilla Protein Powder. Whiz again.

Sometimes I will add some Greek yogurt. You can play around with different sugar free puddings - pistaccio pudding mix with Vanilla Unjury is awesome. Lemon pudding mix is good.

I usually have 4 or 5 bottles of Torani sugar free syrups at all times. You need to play around with different flavors and textures.

If you want something savory - Unjury chicken Soup is pretty good.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
