I've been using Gold Standard. Their Extreme Milk chocolate tastes a lot like Nestles Quik, something I have enjoyed since I was a small boy.

Oh, I almost forgot... I just started using Fairlife milk, it has more Protein than regular milk, and the chocolate variety is really tasty. :)

Just FYI depending on ur insurance they may cover ur shakes. My insurance pays up to $500 a month for Protein shakes if u had Bariatric surgery. Check with them. I spent so much on ones I didn't like it was unreal I have two big tubs of mix that I don't like equal over $100 just for them and I won't touch them. Lol

After only 7 weeks the sweet Protein drink are losing their already limited appeal but I still have a shake or two a day.

Using mostly the unjury unflavored in 8oz of 1% milk or blending it into 4oz of raw juice and a cup of ice.

I love the Premier Protein ones in strawberry and chocolate. I warm the chocolate one up in the microwave and it tastes like hot chocolate. THEY ARE AWESOME! You can buy them at Walmart over in the pharmacy area.

Thanks I'm grabbing a case to try????

I found that after surgery a lot of the Protein shakes I liked were no longer for me.

I've had the best luck with 100 calorie muscle milk and clean unflavored whey Protein.

It's a little pricey but is the closest I've found to truly being unflavored and mixes well. I was totally over the sweet stuff by about 3 days out so this was a life saver on full liquids. I added it to Soup, pudding, etc.

My Doctors nutritionist approved GNC lean shake 25. They fit the requirements and taste great. They have ready mixed and powder. Different flavor. After surgery to get more Protein in I'm going to see if using GENEPRO tasteless Protein and add it to shakes. I will be able to get my protein in. Hope this helps. Tastes better than premiere or muscle milk.

So my Dr. gave me a sample to taste its a Protein Drink Bariatric Advantage (Cookies & Cream).... Omg it's so disgusting! (to me...)

Please Lord somebody tell me they're better tasting Protein Drinks out there, I know there are plenty of brands.... I also know we all have different taste but I'm not a fan of tasting things. Is there anything around similar to Slim fast that taste good to me but this stuff is.... Blahhhh

I like Atkins creamy chocolate and strawberry flavors. Those are the only two I really like. I have to do some more tasting as well.

Hi all! I'm not a big fan of any of the Bariatric shakes at all. I've come across a brand called Vega that's vegan and is the most tasty to me. I add in collagen bone broth Protein by Dr Axe and it's simply delicious, fat and sugar free and is one the only brands that does not use soy or whey as their source of Protein. The added collagen helps with skin and hair issues as well as lubricates the joints for so many extra benefits.

I'm going to suggest the Syntrax along with everyone else! The Nectars are great (my fav was the pink grapefruit with a little salt...not a sweet person) and the matrix are super good! I ordered some for myself for Christmas and for my 14 year old son who is begging for Protein for working out. If you follow some of the Syntrax ambassadors on Instagram you can get 40% off your first order with a code.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
