I have. I think they are pretty good, as long as you drink them cold. I drink one per day, mostly in the evening, and have a regular Protein Shake in the morning. So far I have tried the grape, coconut, and mango.

I tried them all since I can't stand the milk type shakes. Love the black tea. Try synergy nectar powder. Also non milky and easy for me to get down.

I love the grape. Buy it by the case. They are different for everyone. My boyfriend hates the grape and loves the pineapple one. I couldn't even get myself to swallow that one. Lol.

Hi Black Tea is great and you can warm it up or drink with ice. My nutritionist only counts it as 37 grams of Protein. I pour it in the morning and sip on it through out the day. Apple melon is ok but you have to drink it ice cold.

The apple/melon is okay. I have not tasted the others. It is very very sweet. The texture reminds me of watery Jello. I have not had it since I had surgery cause the artificial sweetners make my mouth foam up. Not a good feeling

I liked the apple melon best. They make great Popsicles and I use them to make Protein enhanced Jello. The fruit punch in sugar free lime jello rocks!

Like the others said…you just have to try them. They have some nice nutritional stats, but their taste isn’t for everyone.

The grape is the only one I can tolerate.. it tastes like watered down grape kOol-Aid.. I just make ice cubes out of it so I get the benefit of the Protein but I don't really have to straight up drink it. They are chalky and I just don't like them, but it's hard to beat the protein amount.

Thank you all I will try a few and see how it goes still having a hard time taking the shakes even the premier ones but we got to keep trying

Have you tried the Syntrax Nectars? They are lighter and mix well with Water. The Fuzzy Navel one tastes like slightly diluted orange juice.

so i taste tested these in videos i posted on you tube ill get you the links. for me personally i love the black tea with lemon, the orange was good and the alpine punch. but everyones tastes are subjective. could not do the grape and the apple is not my cup o tea. and im not a coconut person either. But they are a great change from the thicker Protein shakes, by far. I do like mixing the black tea with Syntrax Nectars lemonade Protein mix, and making an awesome protein rich,half and half.

i love these! I haven't had a regular Protein shake since week 3 -- I drank too fast and got sick and just stomach them right now. These are great and count towards your Water as well.

My faves are alpine punch and the blue raspberry. I also like both of the teas. Did not like orange...I have a grape in the fridge to try. I drink about half a bottle a day -- I mix it with 8 ozs of Water, lots of ice and throw in a few drops of zero calorie water enhancers to help with the taste. They really help me meet my Protein goal every day

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
