I like the “Muscle Milk Light Chocolate” and “Muscle Milk Banana Creme” also ”I like Myoplex Chocolate” I only buy the bottles ready to drink ones. I have bought them at HEB, Sam's and Walmart

My favorite is GNC's Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60 in Chocolate. The vanilla is too sweet and is more like french vanilla with an overpowering taste. I mix it with 1% milk and sometimes add extras like a spoonful of peanut butter and some ice or 1/2 a banana and some ice.

My very favorite is the Premier brand that is at costco. It is a ready to drink and the flat has 10 for about 20bucks. 1 carb and 30g protein. Pretty awesome!

I hope your surgery went well!

That is also my favorite. I also agree with the other comments. I have not tried the strawberry yet, gonna grab that this weekend. Curious, I cannot find the same brand in unflavored, what are you using?

I like the Inspire line from Bariatric Eating---there are lots of great flavors, but the PURE unflavored whey is awesome--it is completely indetectible in both sweet or savory foods or liquids.

I agree - the Premier from Costco is my favorite!!!

I do the premier from costco however i did find a blueberry drink from the nutrition store the other day with 40 gms of protein in it that was tasty...How about the protein shots..ever try them with a mixture in the blender..not bad...

I agree with dicarlo, I usually put a squirt of Hersheys sf choc syrup also. Don't like the vanilla at all. Tastes too sweet and almost a coconut flavor. Think I'm gonna try the costco ones's a lot of people seem to like them.:smile2: Barb

I love the Nectar fruit flavored protein. I mix it with Crystal Light. Each scoop has 23 grams of protein.

I like the Special K Protein shake in chocolate.

RTD 51 has 52 grams of whey protein, comes in chocolate, vanilla, mocha, berry blast. it is 240 calories and 2-3 grams of sugar. I get it at the Healthy Life Market section of Drug Emporium. It is a litle pricey (about 3.00 a can) but well worth it with the taste and dietary information.

After months and months of Protein drinks, I must say that I'm tired of chocolate and vanilla. My surgeon will only recommend drinking 100% whey protein isolate (because it's the easiest to digest, low-ish calorie, and is one of the few Proteins that is almost 100% absorbable). So, having tried many, many different types of Protein Drinks, I can say that my favorite is made by Bio-Chem. The flavor I enjoy the most is Berries and Whey (but I would not recommend it until you can have seeds, etc, because there are some seeds in the powder). Right now, I'm finishing a container of Caramel Creme by the same brand and hate it. Occasionally I will do a chocolate Protein shake, but I usually have to add Peanut Butter to it to make it palatable, but it also adds calories, so I tend to shy away from it.

I hope that helps!

Oh, one more thing: if there is a health food store near you, go in and see if they will let you sample their powders, so will, and that's a great help in trying to decide what you like. Nothing is worse than buying a 30-serving container and finding out that you hate it.

Best of luck!
