I like Premier Protein, GNC Lean 25, Syntrax nectar, and ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrate.

There are many, many posts on this site with Protein shake recommendations, but the best thing to do is to try them and see what you like.

Everyone has different taste. The important thing is to experiment until you find one that you can tolerate. For me that was "Muscle Milk Light" (vanilla Creme) powder blended with Water using a half a banana. I used a Ninja blender with a single size serving cup. Good luck.

Premier Protein ready-made shakes in vanilla and chocolate are my favorites.

Just a quick note about unjury chicken Soup Protein Powder...I bought some and was adding it to my blended Soups at a little under 2 weeks out to get in my Protein after surgery. My weight loss nearly stopped at 2 weeks. Wasn't a stall...just slowed wwaayy down! Had a follow-up with surgeon and he said that Unjury chicken soup Protein Powder was way too high in sodium and was causing Water retention. I stopped using it and sure enough, the Water retention went away and I started losing again. Your results may vary.

I love the BariWise hot cocoa mixes. They dissolve completely and don't clump like a lot of other Protein mixes. The mint & amaretto are my favorites!

I also just this week tried Smart Protein by TR supplements (you can search for it on Amazon). The vanilla is very mild and not too sweet like a lot of others. It also dissolves completely so no graininess. I mix it with Carbmaster milk and a dash of whatever flavoring drops I want (those little Lorann 1 gm bottles used in candy making). So far, I've used Eggnog, Cake Batter, and Praline & Cream. Fantastically delicious!

Premier Protein seems to be the best tasting and easiest as they are ready made. The can be purchased at Sam's or costco in 18 packs. You can sometimes find them in 4 packs at Walgreens.

The nice part about ready made shakes is you are not dealing with the grit that comes along with the majority of powdered solutions.

I will say that my second favorite would be the syntax Nectars that can be mixed with Water or milk but you will need a blender or blender cup with the little ball in it?

I've been experimenting.

So far here's my favorite:

2 scoops chocolate Muscle Milk Light

1 Tablespoon-sugar free Chocolate Syrup (I use U-Bet brand)

7oz milk (or water)

1 cup chopped ice

Blend until smooth

The chocolate syrup is the key. It covers up the nasty taste. Almost as good as Dairy Queen!

      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?
      Thanks

      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! 😞
