I'm glad my Dr. allows protein shakes-forever!! I love mine. I use Body Fortress from Walmart-mixed with some crystal light, ice, and frozen berries-tastes like a milkshake. My hubby even has one for breakfast every morning-and he hasn't had surgery-just likes the taste. He's down 40 pounds. Other protein sources I like are fish, string cheese, sb bars, and a recipe I found here-for protein balls. I eat one or two on days I don't think I've gotten it all in-and they taste like treats. 1 cup oats (uncooked) 3/4 cup peanut butter 1 cup (3 scoops protein powder) 1/2 cup sugar free honey Mix and form into balls-about the size of a small walnut-keep in tupperware container in the fridge.

Hello Melissa, I have tried the unflavored unjury, and it makes me gag!!!! UGH!! I am extremely sensitive to all those protein shakes, even in the beginning it was sooooo hard to find one that I could tollerate. I am still looking for one that has no flavor. I am not sure what it is about the drinks, but I try and try to MAKE myself drink them and it just feels aweful in my tummy. I am pretty much getting all my protein from food sources, and once a day I have one of those south beach diet breakfast bars.....10 grams. All of the other supplement bars taste horrid to me. I usually get most of my protein from seafood, I have been living on Scallops, shrimp, and fi**** is truly the easiest things for me to get down. Good Luck, Jane

Hi Melissa, I just got back from my 3 month doctor visit and got a talking to about protein as well... My doctor doesn't allow protein powder after the three month mark though so it's going to be tough. He did say I could add a 4th meal/snack if I need to - that should work because I'm getting about 55g and he just wants it about 60. What's been (almost) working for me is eating chicken or shrimp for just about every meal... not sure but I think I'm sprouting wings and gills!

Congratulations! I bet that is a cool feeling. I am right behind ya!

I don't have flavorless protein but the GNC pro-performance vanilla whey is fairly good.. compared to others it's one of the better ones. And they gaurantee their products so if you don't like it you can return it within 20 days or something like that. I either make frozen fruit smoothies with milk (28g) or add it to Weight Control Banana Bread Oatmeal for breakfast (27g).. it's a good way to boost the protien content in the AM and keeps me going throughout the day. I've also just discovered Atkins Advantage protein bars witch are lower in carbs and sugars for snacks.. I'm picky about these things and these are about the best that I have ever tried. Other than that I try to get the other 30-40 g of protein from real food. hope this helped April
