Everyone's tastes are different. For readymade, I like Premier Protein that I get at costco. For take-along powder, Isopure or powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury.

You really just have to try several until you find what you like.

My fave (even 4 years post op) is EAS AdvanEdge RTD.

As far as powder I like Quest & EAS Lean 15

Something that I wish I knew sooner is you can COOK with Protein powder!! Flourless protein pancakes, muffins, etc...

Many that don't like milky shakes enjoy nectar and Isopure Zero Carb

I absolutely LOVE the Premier 'ready to drink' shakes.

chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and banana.

I take one shake, a few TB of coffee crystals, and a pump or 2 of Torani sugar free syrup... and it's like a sinfully caloric Coffee drink, except it's not! #proteincoffee #proteinicedcoffee

Favorite recipe RN is Banana shake, salted caramel syrup, Greek Nescafe crystals. Mix it up and toss in the freezer...

Check out the Nashua Nutrition site, they have a section where you can buy individual flavors for like $2 so you dont buy a tub of something and hate it.

For Ready to Drink, my go-to is EAS Advantage Carb Control, for Powder I like Gold Standard Vanilla Ice Cream ... You can do SO MUCH with it.

And since I'm new where do I get these items, I'm not a milk drinker

@@cutefacechubbywaist They can be found in many places. Walmart, grocery stores, GNC, Vitamin Shoppe, Amazon, etc...

I find the best price on EAS AdvantEdge RTD at Walmart.

For Isopure Zero Carb and nectar, GNC, Vitamin Shoppe, etc... have a great selection of flavors to choose from.

I hate them all but since premier protein has 30 g of protein which we need I use 1/2 a scoop blended with 1 cup of Fair Life milk and I'm able to drink it[emoji19]

I use Premier Protein- Chocolate. Their bars are awesome as well

I love the SDC About Time Chocolate Peanut Butter. Throw some PB2 in there and unsweetened vanilla almond milk and it's 29 grams of protein and tastes like a peanut butter cup.

I love Premier! The shakes that I got from my surgeon are absolutely horrible! I have a huge bag of 'em left.

We all have such different tastes when it comes to protein shakes. The shakes one person loves, another will find disgusting.

Personally, I love Healthsmart ChocoRite shakes. They have a bit less protein than other shakes, but still acceptable (24g for 150 calories and 3 net carbs), and I think they taste amazing. They are the only shake that I've found that doesn't have a gross "protein-y" smell and aftertaste, and they aren't as sickly sweet as some of the others I've tried. They have a bunch of flavors (the yellow cake batter flavor totally tastes just like cake batter, I love the caramel mocha flavor in the mornings, and one scoop banana cream mixed with one scoop peanut butter is divine!) They also aren't too expensive (they are $12.99 for an 11-serving container at netrition.com, so less than $1.20 per serving.)
