I like the Syntrax Nectar products.  The chocolate truffle is not a thick drink, the flavour reminds me of chocolate popsicles you used to get when I was a kid (I know, that really dates me).  They have fruit flavours also - more like juice -  light, not thick.

You can get the powder from the low carb grocery.

Thanks for your replies looks like Costco is a big winner, will try it and if that doesn't work out there were some good suggestions.

Grateful for your input.

I only use Iso-Pro, low carb Unflavoured
 
and then I doctor it to my liking with SF syrups and usually a 1/2 small bannana..sort of makes it into a milkshake (in my brain anyway)~!!

prior to surgery 323lbs....4 years post-op maintaining between 108- 114 lb loss. 

life is AMAZING when you continue on the right path~!.  Use your surgeons gift to the fullest~!
