Protein powder recommendations

Hi all,

So I am on day one of high Protein pre-op diet. Surgery is scheduled for Jan 17th!!! I have a strawberries and cream Protein powder from Isopure that is horrible!!!! Does anyone have any protein powder recommendations? I can't drink this for the next two weeks. I have chocolate as well and will try that one when I get home from work. Hope that the chocolate is better!!!

@@Kaylamh Sadly that's not available here (I'm from Argentina). My nutricionist asks us to take one called Prolac.

Hi! My surgery is also scheduled for this 17th! I Stoll haven't started with the Protein powder (will on Friday) but am thinking what flavour to buy. I was told vanilla works best

I am asked to get a specific brand called Prolac (I'm in Argentina). It comes in strawberry, vanilla and chocolate flavors. I was advised to get vanilla. Also chocolate if I can buy two so I don't get tired too fast. We'll see.

I like premier Protein shakes. I order them on Amazon but I believe they are in costco and BJs.

I'm lactose intolerant, so what would the best brand be for me?

I feel the same way! I'm scheduled for January 16! I have tried the pure Protein chocolate flavor and it's actually not that bad. Also the Slim Fast High Protein powder also in chocolate flavor. Tastes like a milk shake. Good luck

I'm also scheduled for Jan 16th. Sleeve buddies! :) I have used the slimfast high protein powder as well. The chocolate is my fave. My husband messed up and bought the mixed berries one. ( jot the greTest) however I mixed the two together and it tastes great. Lol
