Grape Protein Drink - Yummy - Not Milky
I am on my pre-op diet and have been struggling to find a protein drink that I like. I don't do vanilla and hate anything "milky" so the shakes were killing me.
I went to GNC last night on a "whim" and found the Isopure drink (in a glass bottle). They are the consistency of propel and you can see thru it. No gritty protein flavor at all and very similar to the taste of propel. I water it down and put crushed ice in it also.
One bottle has 40 grams of protein and 0 carbs...wowza! I am so happy to find something I can tolerate and before I have surgery to boot. I am taking it to the hospital with me for sure!!

Same here re: hating the milky (I also can't stand really sweet stuff..)
You may want to try Cytomax bottled clear RTD protein, I like watermelon best.. and Syntrax Nectars have some flavors that are not milky.. Iced Tea and Lemonade are some favs.. I have to dilute the Cyto and the rest as the flavor**** me as too strong, but they are good. I also am in love with a caffeinated RTD protein called Whey Up.. they are on a production hiatus, but will soon be introducing a "new and improved" formula with more flavors.. I was fond of grape, over a ton of ice.

I get all the stuff online, Whey Up (when back in stock) is sold through Amazon. The Cyto and Nectars are on Netrition.com, and another website that has Nectar is Mybariatricpantry.com. I have not tried ordering from that last website yet (good prices), but have from Netrition, and can highly recommend them. I get a free shaker cup every time I order on Netrition (spend $$, get a freebie) and love this as I can never have too many..
