protien from costco
 I have the vanilla from costco and it is ok if you mix it with a blender. I really prefer the Champion Stack Whey. It mixes with a spoon with no clumps. I order mine from enjoyhealth.com in Kent. Just ordered 3 five pound jars this morning. I mix 1.5 scoops with 4 oz of water and some ice. This gives me over 30 grams of protein at a time. I try to drink them twice a day and eat the rest of my protein.  Be careful ordering before surgery because your tastes may change. I ordered the sample packets pre op so I could see which tasted the best before ordering a large amount.
Good luck. 
 I'll jump in here too.  I have been on high protein diets before where the size of my belly wasn't an issue.  I really enjoyed them.  The basic rule of thumb with protein shakes is the colder the better.  I used to toss some protein, mil**** cubes, a dash of vanilla extract and some Splenda in a blender.  It was very tasty.  After my surgery, I tried it.  My biggest problem was that the blender added a lot of bubbles to it.  I had a hard time drinking it.  It just wouldn't go down.  This was with the Costco brand and another.  
I need something really thin, so I have been buying my protein ready made.  But, it is expensive.  Still, it is better than not getting protein at all.  That is what I was doing for weeks.
I did find a nice way to drink my powder protein.  I have a coco maker.  I bought it dirt cheap on clearance.  It stirs the milk and mix as it heats the milk.  No bubbles.  I toss in the milk, SF cocoa and a scope of protein.  Even though they say the colder the better, this is really nice in a cold night.
