I'm still preop but I've heard a lot of people using the PB2 peanut butter powder and adding it or the coffee syrups just sugar free. They are by the coffee, it's Tocani or something like that I believe. Also sugar free pudding mix. These are just some things I heard in my research and my support group.

Also you may be able to find some good ideas on Pinterest if you're on there. I have a secret board that I use for sleeve info and recipes. My surgery date is 9/9. ;)

You might try some of the other Protein supplements that are far tastier.

At 2 weeks post op I changed to Premier Protein brand ready made shakes which are delicious with no protein smell. Each has 30grams of protein, 1 gram of sugar and 160 calories.

There are tons of recipes out there to add things to them. The beauty of these shakes is so many grams in one shake. In the beginning I only had to drink 2 a day and I was at 60 grams, I then had to get 10 grams from food.

You can get then at Sam's or costco and sometimes Walgreens. Make sure they are very cold.

Also, Syntrax has grab and go hectares that you add to Water or milk, they are actually delicious. Fuzzy naval, vanilla bean torte and Caribbean cooler are among my favorites. I also don't notice that horrible Protein Powder taste with these.

It is way too soon for you to be sick of protein so you need to find one that works for you.

Good luck!

Syntrax Grab and go Nectars. Sorry for the type error!
