If the regular shakes are too sweet, maybe try Unjury chicken Soup Protein Powder or Celebrate Tomato Soup Protein powder. You can buy samples of Unjury from their website for a reasonable price. Unfortunately, I don't know of a way to buy a sample of the Celebrate Tomato soup for a reasonable price -- they charge $25 for it on their website! Maybe if you call them they can help?

I also did a lot of the high protein hot Soups (HealthSmart brand) from Nashua Nutrition and found they helped a lot:

You can get unflavored protein (Syntrax Unflavored, Unjury unflavored) and stir it into broth or soup.

When you are making a hot Protein Drink, be sure to keep the liquid at 130 degrees or lower or the protein will clump, which is nasty. One exception is the HealthSmart soups -- they are formulated so you can use liquid right below boiling and it will work perfectly. Good luck!

premier is wayyy to sweet for me, i use the Syntrax products but if you really need lower sweet, the Vitamin shoppe now sell abouttine brand products i assure you beyond a doubt they are the lowest flavored Protein shakes to still have flavors. also have very few ingredients. Any ready pre mixed or RTD shake mix will be super sweet.

You can order abouttime packets online as well, and yes its one word.

I only drink Syntrax Matrix - after trying just about every brand I found. I love the mint cookie and Cookies & cream flavors best.

I can't tolerate artificial sweeteners. I use Isopure pure Protein isolate. Its unflavored and I mix it with fair life skim milk, frozen milk cubes, and a couple of cut up strawberries. I have a ninja mixer and it blends perfectly. I've never liked sweet drinks so I had to concoct my own. Hope this helps.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
