Everyone seems to like something different. I use GNC 100% Whey Protein, it's not grainy is what I like best about it, I also like About Time protein powder but don't buy it often as I've had to order it online Syntrax Nectar in Chocolate Truffle is another one I like but my go to protein powder is the GNC stuff . I like several different protein bars Oh Yeah bars, Power Crunch, Quest, I also like Lenny & Larry's protein cookies but they are high in calorie for 1 cookie so when I do eat them I usually eat about 1/2 of it or even less, I usually eat a piece of one when I'm having a hankering for a cookie!

| Vitamin SHoppe you can buy it online and you get it the next day (if there isn't a shoppe near by.) SureProtein-in the can premixed 45? gr of protein choc, straw or cookies and cream are good New Whey-tubes..42 gr it is a liquid and I mix it w my water and a little Crystsal Light sometimes I just drink it w water. Watermelon/fruit berry are good. Avoid grape.

My favorite bar is Oh Yeah from mybariatricpantry.com. I also like the cappucino flavored protein powder from Syntrax at the same site. Unjury has some really good chocolate and vanilla protein powder, as well as one with a chicken soup flavor and an unflavored variety. Those are on unjury.com.

My favorite (pre-op here) is the Bariatric Advantage Chocolate. No aftertaste at all. I have Syntrax Roadside Lemonade, and not too happy with the taste/texture. I also have Unjury Chicken Soup (it's ok, color is awful), and the Unflavored that I use in Jello.

I use the Unjury chocolate. You have to order it online but their service is great and they have an auto-ship program too. I have ordered on a Tues night and have received it on Friday. I have tried the GNC 100% Whey protein also, not bad but I like the Unjury better. I don't eat any protein bars as they all seem to be high in calories & carbs for me. Good luck.

I get mine at K-mart. Not sure of the brand, but I like it. I get Vanilla and Chocolate. I also use pre-mixed EAS brand and add some unflavored protein to it to bulk it up a little. The strawberry EAS is yummo!
