I use Fortress Whey Protein from Walmart in chocolate. It cost $16 I think for a canister. It's not bad as long as it is mixed well. 23 gram protein per scoop. I think you just have to get used to the taste and smell of any of them.

RESET is more expensive ($30 for the powder) and available at SpRouts and Bashas, also on-line. It TRULY fills you up and tastes great. Anther option is made by Body Fortress (AVAILABLE AT WAL-MART). It has 100% whey Protein , 4 carbs, and 46 g of protien. It tastes like chocolate milk and has about the same consistancy as chocolate milk so mix in a Fiber or something like strawberries. If you like it thicker, blend with ice. I like it, but it doesn't keep me full like the RESET.

I love this stuff with a scoop of Peanut Butter. Tastes like a Peanut Butter cup. And its cheap. I usually use 1% milk with it.

I've tried tons of Protein shakes and most of them have been vile (in my opinion). I've found three that I find acceptable:

Bolthouse Farms Perfectly Protein - grocery store/organic foods store. Nutrition facts: 8 oz serving, 178-199 calories, 2.5 g fat, 29 carbs, 10g protein, 45% Calcium, 150% Vitamin C, 150% Vit B12 -- best taste, my favorite, but kinda high in calories. Comes in Mocha, Chai, and Hazelnut. All have caffeine.

powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes - chocolate with milk, vanilla in coffee. Check out Welcome to the Unjury Homepage - need to be patient mixing this together or you get a chunky layer on top, and coffee can't be too hot or it'll curdle the protein.

Atkins chocolate Royale (all other flavors taste too strongly of vitamins). Nutrition facts: 11 oz serving, 9g fat, 6 carbs, 15g protein, 40% Calcium, 30% vit C, 25% Iron, 30% Vit B12. These can be found at the Vitamin stores (GNC, Vitamin Shoppe, Vitamin Store, etc.) and sometimes in the diet aisle at the grocery store.

Everyone's got different tastes, and some folks do fine with soy products and don't notice the aftertaste of things, or that scratchy-throat vitamin unpleasantness (Isopure zero carb - good protein, low cal, really need something to drink afterwards). I can force my way through a lot of the different Protein Bars (really not worth the pain, by the way) but I need a good tasting drink.

Good luck in the Protein Drink search. When they say "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is" - they really mean it for the Protein drinks.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
