Protein Shakes Ugh!

Hi all. My dietician now has me doing a protein drink a day whether a meal or a snack. I bought Celebrate packets of latte and cookies and cream thinking they would taste good. Yuck. The only thing I can drink without a gag is the Premier Protein which I know I really shouldn't drink. Any suggestions on great tasting drinks that are comparable in taste to Premier. Thank you in advance.

What is wrong with Premier protein drinks? They recommended them where I had surgery, because they have 30 grams of protein. I loved them before surgery but don't like taste after surgery. I use flavorless Genepro. I add to my hot coco or tea or broth. I like that I don't have that whey flavor to shake.

My dietician doesn't care much for premier either, she says it is the top of the line junk Protein meaning it is the best out of the low quality Proteins. But, she says if that is what you can get that it is fine.

nectar is really good, and for plant I like Organ Organic.

Someone on another blog recommended syntrax from Bariatric choice website. I personally love premier protein and so did the other person who recommended Syntrax, so maybe you will like it maybe not.. I guess it's all trial and error.

Thanks all. My reason was like previous poster that the Protein isnt quality but since I like the taste I will continue to use it.

I personally use Nectar Sweets by Syntrax, they offer so many different flavors. They are easy to mix with either water or milk and just taste great over all. My favorites hands down are vanilla bean torte and chocolate truffle. Try Nectar Sweets, you might be able to buy just a packet to try. I usually just buy the huge tub. Best of luck!

Yeah, to me, powder protein doesn't dissolve well.

Nectar, Orgain and Inspire are so far my favorites. The Inspire ones are ungodly good.
