Protein Shakes suggestions?



Recommended Posts

Unjury powder tastes alright

Isopure powder has more Protein

Synrax powder mixes better

Celebrate tastes alright, mixes alright, but takes twice as much product for the same amount of protein as Unjury

Syntax Matrix, Syntrax Nectar, and Muscle Milk all have outstanding flavor selections. Besides those I've also had Jay Rob, Garden of Life, un jury and Spirutein

I am doing the same thing right now. Isopure Cookies and Cream tastes weird. It has a funky aftertaste and is pretty sweet. I did mix it with some chocolate almond milk and it was more bearable.

I am still waiting for Premier shakes to come in, along with EAS, GNC Total Lean and about 3 flavors of Syntrax nectar. (All of those shakes were suggested by other people on here.)

Right now I am trying out substituting some meals with shakes so when I get to the pre-op diet I am not completely shocked! :)

I stick with Premier Protein chocolate. I have tried EAS and Muscle Milk but always go back to Premier shakes.

Premiere Protein shakes all the way! I have tried all of them at it is by far the best tasting. You get 30mg a shake and the cheapest place to buy them is Sam's for $19.00 a case. The best!

I use Bariatric Advantage from Amazon. chocolate is my favorite. Now I'm using GNC Cookies and cream, also

CVS sells individual packets of their brand. I love their strawberry. I had them order me a carton and keep packets with me in the car ( I'm in sales and drive all day.

Also I now use GENEPRO Protien (Amazon) this is for post surgery and is tasteless n can be added to crystal light drinks, oatmeal, anything really to boost Protein content. The GENEPRO Is really great directly after surgery when it is hard to get all the Protein in.

Good luck!!!

Just started to try a few samples my clinics office gave me. They are all Syntrax nectar. The good so far: Fuzzy Navel (waaay good), Cappucino, and vanilla Bean Torte. The only other one I tried was Cookies and Cream and that I did not like at all. My nutritionist suggested mixing them with almond milk. They shake up and blend really well in the hand shaker thing with the wire ball inside.

Thant's all I know so far :)

You really need to taste them because each person will like something different. I had specific needs: no soy isolate, no artificial dyes, and no stevia. I tried a bunch of different ones. I ended up with 3 I use depending on what I am eating: CVS whey powder, Orgain Organic premade shakes and Prosource liquid Protein in neutral flavor.

I bought a bunch of samples from Nashua Nutrition for $1.95 each. They even package samples for products that don't manufacture and individual serving size. I LOVED being able to order such a large variety of samples and not be stuck with tubs of mix I can't stand. I do love the Peanut Butter cookie Protein Powder. It is amazing!

Muscle milk cookie n cream is amazing! I love it.

GNC vanilla is ok. It would be better if mixed in a smoothie. Pure Protein mint chocolate chip is awful.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
