I love the Chewy Bites Calcium -- caramel is my favorite and chocolate's not too bad.

My favorites are the banana, orange cream, and vanilla; in that order. I haven't tried the strawberry yet. If u like coffee, you might like the ice latte. I didn't care for it. The chocolate was just ok. Try the samples first before you buy the bigger bag.

Thanks ever one I wish I could use my own "but my surgeon requires" BARIATRIC ADVANTAGE which sucks because out of all the shakes I have been sampling those are the ones that I haven't had

I love the premier Protein shakes from Costco! In my opinion, they are the best premade shakes around.

I bought the calcium citrate chewy bites from BA and liked them alright. I just switched to a calcium citrate capsule from Vitamin Shoppe that goes down really easily, I got the ok from my NUT on them and love the fact that I can zip down the street to pick them up instead of ordering. They are also about 1/4 the price. I've also switched to the Centrium chewable multi Vitamin and they are pretty good. I find it really interesting that same surgery but different surgery centers have really different guidelines as far as the supplements that are required.

I tried all flavors didn't like them much. So i stuck with the vanilla since it was the best to me out of all of them. I can't wait for when I don't have to drink that brand anymore. I just keep telling myself its a yummy milkshake lol

Also it gets thick if you don't drink it right away. I didn't like it once it got thick so I had to add more ice and put it back in the blender.

I have only tried chocolate, vanilla and orange cream. The vanilla and chocolate are both good. But I am not so hot on the orange cream. I REALLY wish I would have gotten banana instead. The orange is not terrible but it's not something I look forward to either. If I mix one scoop of it with one scoop of the chocolate it's not bad though. I actually like that this brand seems thicker than most shakes I've tried.

I'm going to have to consider the costco brand of pre-made shakes.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
