Please help me find Protein that is good.

I absolutely can't stand protein shakes.. I'm looking for something that is tasteless if that is even possible. I'm 9 days post-op and I'm really upset because I can't stomach it but I know my body needs it. I really don't have the money to experiment with all the different kinds so i was hoping to get some input on what ya'll like. Thanks. Carla

I have tried the Unjury tasteless but to tell you the truth it wasn't so tasteless. I know that you can get samples for next to nothing at bariatriceating.com. I have tried the Nectar drinks and that is about the only thing that I can stomach. You can barely taste the protein in it but there is always the protein smell. I can smell that stuff in anything. If you can have the milk based protein, I have heard good things about Matrix 5. It comes in chocolate and vanilla. With any new protein drink I always got samples first. Hope you find something. Remember get your protein in and drink your fluids! Rhonda 225/145

I tried several and didn't like any of them, but when I found Amino 222 from GNC, I didn't have to look any further. It tastes like fruit punch and can be mixed with sugar-free tropical punch KoolAid and a few packets of Splenda (I use 6-8). It tastes just like drinking tropical punch KoolAid, and you don't even know you're getting anything good. It feels like you're cheating with something really, really sweet. It has 22 g of protein per four tbsp. I use a double dose and get 44 grams a day mixed with 20-30 ounces of KoolAid (which helps encourage more liquids). Rebecca (lap RNY 10/28/04) 300/262/170

Carla ...i have spent a fortune on protein powders finally found one at walmart called Aria ...its not bad at all..and less than $10 try that and good luck

Have you tried Carnation instant breakfast and Carb Countdown dairy beverage ? Carnation comes in sugar free. Carb Countdown beverage is loaded with protein and tates good. I drink fat free and Chocolate version of Carb countdount. Try Total Protein cereal w/ Carb Countdown. My protein level was low and hair falling out by handfuls untill I started these products. I Eat 1/2 of Carb Well protein bars also as a meal. Try the Peanut butter. These are all cheaper and better tasting than the protein powders. Let me know what you think.
