Fairlife is awesome!

I just tried the Fairlife core Shakes and WOW it sooo much better than premier protein shakes! Going to try the Fairlife nutrition shakes later. Anyone else prefer these? I believe these are going to be a life saver with the pre-op diet!!

I was having trouble drinking premier and ensure shake after my surgery, they were too think and I really needed to try and reach my protein goals. My dietician actually recommended these shakes and I love them. They are thin enough that they don't bother me and I don't need to take as long to drink them as the pureed food I need to eat.

I have a power core 26g in the morning for breakfast and then my lunch is tuna with lite mayo and my dinner is egg beaters. Fairlife Power Core is the best thing that has happened to my diet so far. I buy them in bulk from Amazon. I have tried Chocolate, Vanilla, Banana, and Strawberry Banana. I love them all.

Yep! Just received my 42g ultra Protein yesterday! My friend who had gastric sleeve let me know about them after surgery. I never did like Premier Protein except for with coffee. It has a weird after taste to me.


Edited:

I don’t know which you are drinking but my ultras have only 7g of sugar.  And the 26g of protein only have 5.

In reference to @ANewJourneyAwaits's post above, it says it has sugar, however you all should be advised that it's not added sugar. It's just from the dairy protein in it. You honestly get more sugar from drinking straight skim milk.

I have been LOVING Fairlife 30g protein chocolate shakes. I'm 7 weeks post-op and these have been a life-saver. I'll stick with them forever, I think. I can't drink Premier Protein (I feel like they're so full of a chemical taste that I can't stomach them). I get my Fairlife nutrition plan drinks at Costco. My nutritionist approves of them wholeheartedly, above Premier Protein.

Tip: Get flavored baking extracts and add them to the shake with ice. Everything from banana to almond to peppermint, it's fantastic.
