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.

https://www.amazon.com/Clean-Label-Protein-Unflavored-Servings/dp/B019YWFHAW

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.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
