Powder or liquid protein?????

I have tried a bunch and hate most. But I do like the isopure fruit flavored drinks and the GNC Maximum Protein (Chocolate) I drink 10oz of  Max. Protein  a day and it is good. It has 22 g per 1 scope mixed with 5 oz of water. They have samples of it at GNC.  It is all personal taste. Myrtis

Thanks for the advice..I am so confused....lol

I do protein bullets as only 3 oz with 42g of whey protein and taste almost like liquid jello (except for orange which was GROSS).  The cheapest place i have found is  http://www.nutrahealthy.com/servlet/the-28/New-WHEY-Protein- Bullets/Detail Since some ppl have told me your body can only absorb 25 g at a time, I drink half in the a.m. and the remainder later in the day.    I know some ppl have said they mix with Crystal Light but i just drink out of the vial and get it over and done with. Good luck, Pam

Thanks for the website!! I will check it out!!

Angie, My psychologist had RNY 9 years ago and she recommended that I visit bariatriceating.com.  They have a sampler basket for about $50-$60.  I haven't ordered it yet, but  I plan to.  It has samples of both liquid and powder I think.  There are also recipes on the website to give you ideas of what you can mix them in to get a tasty drink.  It seems like a good way to get a lot of samples of a lot of different types of protein without spending a lot of money on something you might not like.  Hope this helps.

Hey Amanda!! Haven't talked to you inawhile...how is everything going??? Have you been to all of your appts yet?? Thanks for the website!!!

I am doing well.  I have been to all of my appointments.  I meet with Dr. MacDonald on the 22nd for the surgical consult.  After that I just have to wait for insurance approval and then schedule the surgery.  I am still hoping for sometime in May.  I hope you're doing well, too!   Amanda

I have ordered the protein bullets from bariatriceating.com and they are great.  I  mix 1/2 a bullet with about 20 oz water and an individual serving of crystal lite - I get the fruit punch flavor and they are delicious.  I have also orderd the dessert flavored protein powder from there, the Banana nut and chocolate fudge, and they are delicious.  Just add cold water, even flavored sugar free syrups, shake in a blender ball cup and drink.  They really are good!!!!  I also add the whey unflavored protein powder to my sugar free puddings. I too am on the pureed stage and am managing with tuna salad made with sugar free pickles and sugar free pickle juice with small amount of low fat mayo, chicken salad made the same way, soft scrambled egg with laughing cow cheese added for texture and flavor, cottage cheese with sugar free strawberry jam added - all kinds of things!
