Does anyone know of a good Protein Shake that doesn't have artifical sweetner?



Recommended Posts

:blush: My doctors office uses Bariatric Advantage, but I can't have artificial sweetners...any suggestions on an alternative?

Designer whey and many other brands use stevia.

There are unflavored powders, such as GENEPRO, that you just add a scoop to whatever(beverages, hot Cereal...). The scoop is much smaller than for a shake, and has 30g of Protein. I add half a scoop to 2 scoops of shake powder, then 12 ounces of Water and blend. I sip on this throughout the day for my Protein needs. Good luck to you!

Jay Robb brand is pretty good.

I second the vote for Jay Robb! I especially like that there's less than 10 ingredients (not a huge list of who knows what you're eating!) They have a ton of flavors and you can order them on Amazon (little cheaper) or find in most grocery stores (Kroger, etc.).

Be aware that they make 2 different Protein types - Egg White Protein (which is lower calorie but pretty "eggy" tasting--- imagine raw angel food cake batter) and Whey Protein. I have the vanilla egg white which I usually mix a half scoop with half scoop of desired Whey flavor. I then mix in Blender Bottle with 75% Water and 25% unsweetened almond or coconut milk.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
