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've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
