Did I mention I really HATE the Protein crappy drinks LOL

I'm with Kate, I didn't use protein drinks post-op but a time or two.  Really was a waste of $$ as far as I'm concerned.  I recently gave a new girl the tub of stuff I bought.. almost full.

I do drink a protein drink these days after workout to help my muscle recover.. but I'm doing fairly strenous workouts.. minimum of 90 min and usually 3 hours or more.

What I'm using is Syntrax Nectar.  I recently wrote to them inquiring about samples and this was their response:

"one time only, limit one per person special on the Nectar ‘Variety Sampler’ containing 13 full serving packets of the following flavors:  Apple Ecstasy, Caribbean Cooler, Crystal Sky, Fuzzy Navel, Lemon Tea, Pink Grapefruit, Roadside Lemonade, Strawberry Kiwi, Twisted Cherry, Chocolate Truffle, Strawberry Mousse, Vanilla Bean Torte and Latte Cappuccino.  The price is $13.00.  The Nectar Variety Sampler receives FREE SHIPPING and orders typically arrive in 2-5 business days via UPS Ground.  If you would like to take advantage of this offer, please give us a call at 866-333-7403 x 801.  Our hours are Monday - Friday, 8am - 5pm Central time. "

I'm not very fond of the EAScarbcontrol or carbadvantage.. , but it's tolerable IF you get it VERY VERY cold and add some Torani or DaVinci s/f syrup to it.

I do sorta like the Muscle Milk LIGHT (not the regular) in Vanilla Creme.  The chocolate tastes weird to me.  Again, get it VERY VERY COLD.

Good luck.

 I'm addicted to click protein.  I do a mocha shake every morning I work early.  The vanilla latte is also yummy.  Each serving has a shot of expresso ...so coffee + protein in every drink.

I like Unjury Unflavored in Fat Free Choc Milk. I let it sit 10 min or so before I drink it. Can't tell it's in there. My fav!
