Is she using ready to drink or powders? If she has only tried one of those types, she may want to try the other.

Is it pre made?..i use both but mainly powder...try GNC lean me great powder...25 grams of protein or the regular ones with 9 grams....Good luck!!!

I had the same issues. I only use syntrax nectar. They are lactose free and thinner. I like the chocolate truffle, road side lemonade, latte cappuccino, and the fuzzy navel. They have 23 grams of protein per scoop. They mix very smoothly. Here is the link to their web site. https://www.bariatricchoice.com/rewardsref/index/refer/id/113961/

I am 5 months post op sleeve and I drink ready-made Premier Protein shakes. Comes in chocolate and vanilla. 30 gm protein.

They are smooth and goes down easy. No gassy problems either.

I do the premise premier protein shakes too. I'm 3 months out and usually drink 1 for breakfast.
