I'm thinking of trying a high Protein coffee drink powder, but I'm not sure which one to buy. The three main brands seem to be Chike, Click and Fit Frappe, and I also saw a brand called BuzzFit that looked interesting.

Does anyone have any advice about which ones taste better, mix easier, etc? And if you do like a particular brand, what flavor do you prefer?

Thanks!

I had a few i liked before surgery and now cant stomach them. I feel im waisting more money on these powders then needed.

Love fit frappe chai latte!

Chike is pretty good.

What j usually do is use Starbucks via instant powder with my regular vanilla or chocolate Protein shake (Syntrax matrix and Quest are the ones I use but whatever your favorite is!)

Look what I just found! This website has samples of a whole bunch of different Protein powders, for $2.19/sample. This should save me some serious cash!

What's your favorite Chike recipe?

Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I don't have recipes for my Protein powders.

I simply mix them with ice Water (using the recommend amount on the package) in a shaker bottle.

Now....down the road in six months or so I may adopt a different strategy. That'll be when I hit maintenance living. Perhaps I'll adopt that use of a blender and add in some fruit or Fairlife milk. Right now, though, I"m squarely in weight loss mode and don't need any additional calories with my Protein shakes.

I love mixing cold brew coffee with the caramel, vanilla, or chocolate premier protein. Since I'm cutting out caffeine, I need to find a ready made decaf cold brew coffee (I know I can make my own, but I don't have that kind of patience).

In an effort to further prepare for surgery, I've become caffeine free. I make my coffee the night before, (decaff) and refrigerate it in a sealed container. In the morning I just pour it over a scoop of unflavored Isopure and add a little of my sugar free vanilla creamer. That way I don't change the integrity of the Protein powder with the heat from the coffee. It tastes pretty good and doesn't instantly make me too hot.

This process will not likely be something I like after surgery because I hear that I will want something warm to drink, but it's working well now.

Syntrax Nectar Cappuccino latte is what I had right after surgery. After 6 weeks I just made my own drinks with unflavored Protein powder and cold brew coffee concentrate.

Yep they have over 100 different samples. They send them in little plastic baggies. I have ordered from them since 2013 and liked their Syntrax drinks and HealthSmart . The Healthsmart hot chocolate Protein Drink in the morning with instant coffee added has been my morning drink for years. However there are no Healthsmart drinks as samples. Bummer. But that is ok as I now use Bariatricpals store to order from as they cost less.

I haven't tried all of them but I ordered the Chike regular flavor first and liked it and then the mocha and liked that better. I just make mine with Water bc milk and I don't get along.
