Any not milky Protein Drinks?
I'm on my Unjury liquid diet, and while I can handle it just fine, the sweetness and milk-base is definitely not my favorite. I will stick to my diet, but I'm hoping to have more options post-op. Are there any protein drinks that are less shakey and more water-based (think Powerade but protein drink)? Also low carb and sugar free?
Edit: after more sleuthing I found Atkins Lift. Any experience with this?

My favorite is genepro - it's an unflavored protein powder with 1g carb per 30g protein and it mixes well with most liquids. I personally mix one scoop with 1 cup unsweetened almond milk as my morning protein shake. Immediately post op I often mixed it with bone broth or chicken broth.
Mossyvsg, you might want to watch the following video. There has been much discussion in this site regarding Genepro's claims that their protein powder contains 30g of protein per tablespoon, but that a tablespoon only weighs 11g so it is not possible for it to contain 30g of protein. There is a lawsuit in process against them for false advertising.
The video reads all the information in the lawsuit that you can't read yourself because you have to join to read it:

Oh gosh, what a bummer. I just bought a new container! I guess I'll keep using it until it's gone and see how the lawsuit turns out and then try out Unjury.
Is an unflavored mix something I could potentially mix in with something like Powerade and or sugarfree lemonade and it taste alright?
