    I like Premier too. I've tried chocolate and strawberry- both are good but I don't like the strawberry anymore after surgery. But the chocolate tastes like a Yahoo chocolate drink! Not bad at all!

Quest was recommended to me.

I also prefer Premier Protein shakes. Costco has a good price. It's available in my local Costco as well as online. I like all 3 flavors. I like not having to mix powders.

I found Unjury to be the best if you are looking for a powder. I started out with Bariatric Advantage but didn't like the flavor. Unjury also has unflavored and a chicken soup flavor if you sometimes just do not want something sweet. It is only available on line. I also like Quest for protein bars.

A lot of the recommended powder ones seem so sweet to me since many have Stevia in them which, sadly, i don't care for or another sugar substitute. I hate all the vanilla ones that my nutritionist recommended.

However, luckily, I do have one favorite (I'm currently on day 6 of my two-week pre-op Protein shake prep): Dymatize Elite XT Extended Release banana Nut. It is available on Amazon.

I've been liking the Premier Protein chocolate ones. I am currently waiting for pre-op surgical testing/clearance.

I like Premier Protein in the chocolate & strawberry. I haven't tried vanilla. They came out with a smaller shake in a mixed berry. I hated it & threw out 3 containers. I could hardly get thru the 1 I did drink. As for the powders I like Syntrax nectar in Vanilla Torte, Fuzzy Navel & a couple of others. You can buy them in individual servings & I recommend buying these until you figure what flavors you want. I also mix my Protein powder with Silk milk. I hate using Water. I get my powder from The Vitamin Shoppe. You can also order it online from their website or from Amazon.

The unjury chicken Soup is good. I used it a lot at first when my stomach was a bit nauseated. I also have a jar of their unflavored powder that I use Torini sugar free flavors with. Those are really good. I have the vanilla & chocolate. Torini has a website to order from. I don't know of any stores that sell this liquid flavoring.

I'm a big fan of the premier protein shakes but while in California I recently tried the organic version of Muscle Milk and really liked it. It's made with stevia and is not as sweet as the other shakes. I only wish I could find it here in Canada now.

Chocolate Premier Protein!

unjury has been the best for me, doesn't have that protien flavor like the others I've tried

I love pure protein. $20 for a 2 lb tub and I know the stats are awesome... I have to find them lol.
