Question about protein shakes

So I bought muscletech whey isolate chocolate (my doc said it was fine) for my protein shakes. I am about to start my 2 week liquid diet. I tried the powder for the first time with 2% milk (bought 1% for future use today) and it is NASTY! I puked it was so gross. I have had protein shakes before. So I don't know why this one is so gross.

Anyway my question is what can I add to it, to make it taste better?

i can't do any sugar or foods?

Any suggestions?

Try the Premier Protein Caramel flavor. These are pre prepared shakes in serving size box things. YOu can get them at Walmart or almost any grocery store. I even use this as creamer in my coffee. I am not allowed milk. I am day 5 in my pre op diet and down 11 lbs.

Here is my plan, obviously its working! coffee with a splash of Premier Protein banana or caramel , then the rest of the Premier Protein Shake for Breakfast, at 10am I have 2 C of chicken broth, at Noon I have 2 C chicken broth + another Premier Protein shake, at 2pm I have 1 sf Jello cup, at 6ish I have 2 C chicken broth (appetizer :) ) and another Carmel Premier Protein shake, 8pm snack another sf jello cup. I don't really like any other flavors of broth or I would have those. My shakes have to be under 200 calories, high protein (these are 30g) and as low sugar as you can find (1g). Premier is handy, pre made, and I like the flavors (Caramel, Banana, and strawberry Cream are my favorites). I SWEAR I have not had any headaches, and my energy level is really good (just fall asleep earlier which helps me not dwell on food).

If you get sick of sweet shakes and want something tart, I like Isopure ready-made blue raspberry on ice - 40 grams 20oz.

Hi........ I bought EAS Soy powder, my Dr. said "Soy" is better on you & has the Protein you need. I was told by my dietician to use Flavoring like orange, pecan, etc.... the ones you use to make cakes? But, I would buy Vanilla so you can use them. Probably not so good with Chocolate. And, if you get the 1 % milk really cold, you will get used to it just fine. You just need to make up in your mind, this is a step to the new you, like I did. Hope this helps.

What about decaf?

I listened to a guest speaker at a support group meeting who said that he bought some salt shakers, and filled them each with a different flavor of sugar free jello powder. Then he just buys plain vanilla protein shakes, and sprinkles a little flavoring into it so he has lots of options. I haven't tried it yet, but it seems like a great idea!

I can have decaf only. Something about caffeine and your blood vessels during surgery. Tomorrow is my day!!!!

I bet that would be good in greek yogurt too!

Unjury makes a delicious chicken protein soup. Tastes just like chicken soup. I'm attaching the nutrition label.

I don't have one right now. I just ordered the sample kit. Here is the link for the chicken flavor. https://www.unjury.com/chickensoup-protein-container.html
