The absolute worst. I'm on level 3 food eating now, but I haven't had much luck getting all my proteins needed. So I quickly went for this shake because of the price. What a mistake! Diarrhea and nausea. I pinched my nose to keep it down. When I foolishly picked this up in a hurry, I didn't read the contents. Even after drinking the first one. Please stay away from this in my honest opinion. No good. [emoji90]

I think you meant to post a picture or link but it didn't go through. What was it?

some people become lactose intolerant after surgery (sometimes temporarily, sometimes permanently). Others can't tolerate artificial sweeteners, especially sugar alcohols (names of sugar alcohols end in "-ol", like xylitol). Maybe one/both of these??

Your post didn't mention the brand name or a photo of it or anything. I'm six months out and I'm still drinking GNC Lean Shakes (premade) and loving them. Both chocolate and vanilla are great.

Sorry. I actually posted 3 pics of equate high protein nutrition shakes. I guess it didn't upload.

Yikes. Corn syrup and sugar listed as ingredients #2 and #4... the high sugar content could definitely be to blame! I’d look around for some lower sugar choices. I personally prefer Premier Protein. I’ve also ordered the Syntrex Nectar variety pack from the Bariatric Pal store and they were pretty tasty IMO.
