Clear protein drink

[Happy Stylist 86]

Ok. What is/was your favorite clear Protein Drink? I'm trying to get my Gro list together. I have to drink Clear Liquids several days before my surgery and a week after. Did you buy it premixed or in power form?

I've only tried one. It was Premier Protein clear Protein Drink in peach flavor. It was okay. Twenty grams of Protein, 0 sugar, 90 calories.

I like the gatorade zero with Protein. (pre mixed bottles) 20 oz bottle is between 50-70 calories depending on flavor and 20 g protein.

I wouldn't stock up too much for after surgery, a lot of people talk about their taste buds changing drastically after surgery. A lot of things you like before surgery you don't like after surgery and vise versa.

I'm looking into these. They are a higher in Protein but are kind of expensive. But if they are good I'm will to buy.

Protein2o - you can get them at costco or Amazon. I've used the bottled drinks and the single serve packets. Both are great!

If it's possible to buy only one or two to try, do that. Our tastes tend to change like @kcuster83 mentioned.

Also Bariatric Pal has a store and they have "protein shots" I've never tried them, but I recall Alex saying his favorite is the crisp apple. He mentioned that it's tart. https://store.bariatricpal.com/products/bariatricpal-25g-whey-protein-collagen-power-shots-crisp-apple?variant=31264231325773

Where do you find these? I keep hearing about them but have never seen them in any store.

The Vitamin Shoppe has them.

I like the Isopure powder in mixed berry. Have to make it ahead and let it sit for a while because it gets pretty foamy. I tried the protein2o and didn't like them. They had a stronger chalky aftertaste to them to me.

I found them on Amazon. But when I searched the product it said I could buy them at a few Vitamin stores near me. I’m going to look for them tomorrow.

I have some Isopure powder ordered. But I thought premix would be good for on the go.

I used the premiere Protein as well (in fruit punch). I second the not sticking up too much though unless you have someone else who can drink them because our tastes can change post surgery, especially for sweet stuff.
