Poll - favorite protein shakes
The only vanilla I like is Carnation Instant Breakfast Vanilla sugar free.
Chocolate is GNC Wheybolic 60. I make a tasty frozen chocolate mocha with frozen coffee & the Wheybolic.
I also like GNC Wheybolic 60 Strawberry. I make a protein ice cream with the powder, a cup of frozen strawberries and a cup of milk. I drink part as a shake and freeze the other part.

Distal RNY 6/11 SW 456 CW 311 Complications: Small bowel strangulation 12/23/2012, non healing surgical incision--ongoing. Still.
I have yet to try nectar or chike, but I found the unjury, gnc and isopure too sweet. Before revision I had tried isogenix, and still had containers of shake mix. I love them even more now, vanilla and chocolate. It's kind of pricey but it tastes good to me and when I'm in need of protein that I can't get from food it works.

For Vanilla I like GNC 100% whey mixed with frozen fruit and plain greek yogurt.
For chocolate, I am still choking down assorted chocolate powders. The ample selection of rejects will go down the peg I will have for 4 weeks post op. LOL
For another flavor i like the Isopure clear apple melon. But its the only flavor of Isopure I really like.
I bought a of bunch sampes of protein from Vitalady. i have only used one, I am waiting till I am. post op to try them out because everyone says tastes change after RNY

My favorite protein is Premier Nutrition's Chocolate which I can only find in Costco. Its 30 grams of protein and only 160 calories and I really like it.
I havent found a Vanilla that I like.
My favorite non-chocolate or non- vanilla protein is Atkins Mocha Latte but it is only 15 grams of protein so I use that one when I only want a "snack" or I'm craving something other than chocolate.

I have a question regarding this topic... Are we allowed to drink any protein shake mix or is the a list of ones they allow? I already have "Whey Protein" mix in my home and was wondering if I should keep it or not?
Thanks

Vanilla - Syntrax Vanilla Bean Torte (my favorite by a long shot)
Chocolate - Unjury Chocolate Splendor (the new chocolate version)
other - Chike banana (or Oh Yeah banana, but it isn't a powder)
