There is no best kind of shake, it really is all about preference.  Some people drink theirs only with powder and water, which I find disgusting.  Some only drink it with powder and milk.  I did this pre-op but don't dare it post-op.  I make my shakes in the blender with powder, mil**** fruit, puddings (helps to thicken), sugar free syrup ... my shakes end up tasting more like frappes or milkshakes and this is the only way I can drink them.  Try different recipes and doctor them up .... there are a ton of way to drink them.  If you don't like the taste of your protein shakes you are not making them right :)

Best of luck!
This is my favorite:
Neopolitian Shake (like the ice cream!)
1 cup fat free milk
1 scoop vanilla protein poweder
1 tsp unsweetened cocoa + 1 tbsp sugar free chocolate pudding
handful frozen strawberries
blend together for 2 minutes then add ice!
delicious!

Craving pistacio ice cream??
1 cup fat free milk
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
2 tbsp sugar free pistachio pudding
blend w/ ice for 2 minutes

Chocolate Almond
1 cup fat free milk
1 scoop chocolate protein powder
1 tbsp sf choc pudding
1 tsp almond extract
1 handful lightly salted almonds
mix for 2 minutes then add ice

limitless possibilities!!

Hi, I am a lazy person.  Not like Kate, who is wonderful by the way.  Very helpful.

I drink the Atkins shakes.  You can get them cheaper at Walmart or Target for about $6 a 4 pack.  CVS or Walgreens a about $8.  I like the Milk chocolate delight shake.

The powder I use is Zero Carb Isopure.  I find it the cheapest on naturesbest.com.

Good luck
