I need advice. I can't find a Protein shake I can keep down I tried nectar (all flavors) also Beneprotein. Now I'm trying atkins lift and the after taste is horrible. I cant keep it down. I already talked to my Doctor and he told me to hold my nose and drink it. But doesnt help. So hopefully someone can help me what Protein Shake i can drink. By the way I had my gastric bypass surgery on Dec 5th. TIA

Premier is pre-mixed. After surgery, it was the only thing I could stand. Do you tolerate milk OK? My paperwork suggested something called "double milk" which is powdered nonfat milk mixed into regular skim milk with a blender. Also, Fairlife milk has more Protein than regular milk which can help. Also, try mixing the powders with more water/milk than it calls for. Or, alternatively, mixing it with less to make a pudding consistency that you might find different enough to tolerate. Just play with it and try different things. I also had good luck with putting unflavored Protein powder in chicken broth/bouillon (just mix it with warm Water in a blender first, then mix that into the hot liquid to avoid clumping). I also did well freezing the fruit juice "clear" Protein drinks into ice pops and getting them down that way early on.

I like ice col Premier Vanilla. I add a few drops of rum extract to make it taste like "egg nog" or coconut extract to make it taste like a "pinacolada."

Try ideallean ... I really like them and they fit in our guide lines

Do you live near a costco? They carry Premier Protein there. It's the only one i tried pre-op and am still on it post-op. I only bought the chocolate and that's the one i drink, but they gave me the vanilla while i was in the hospital and it was ok, but it's way too sweet for my liking. To me it felt like i was drinking coffee Mate. That was with ice too lol.

If you want to try a small case first, Walmart carries all 5 flavors. So far i've only tried the two mentioned above, but they also have strawberries n cream, bananas n cream, and caramel.

On the list my surgeon's office gave me they recommend, Premier Protein, Muscle Milk, EAS, and Isopure.

I hope you can find something you like. Best of luck to you!

I got the premier powder and love it and mix it with almond milk. So tasty.

Watching this thread for suggestions.

I bought a bunch of Premier Protein shakes before my surgery because I liked it.

Now it tastes like chemicals to me and I have a great deal of trouble drinking it.

Why don't you get some of the unflavored Protein Powder or talk to your doc about prescriptfit shake powder in chocolate.

I found the perfect shakes!

I use the Quest Protein powder packs. Come in your normal flavors and yummy ones like salted Carmel. THEN I stumbled across the sugar free syrups that Starbucks uses at World Market (Walmart type stores usually only carry vanilla, raspberry and Carmel) BUT I got s'mores, cinnamon vanilla, brown sugar bourbon, Belgian sugar cookie, Carmel, chocolate ALL sugar free. So I add a small amount to my shakes. I even do the premier chocolate or vanilla and put it in blender with some ice and these flavoring and it's one of the best things I look forward to waking up to.
