ive used the atkins drinks, and also Unjury which is sold online.

i do ok with both of those.

also a company called smartforme , found online sells individual
packets of fruit flaovred protein drinks that you just mix with water.
they are a little pricey though but i dont drink them every day.  they tasted
 good

just keep trying you will find something u like.  also if you are a milk
drinker, a glass of skim milk just by itself has about 11 grams of protein.

hugs, jacki

My sons both had a double chocolate whey protein powder made by Gold Standard that is not gritty.  I just ordered some because of the non-gritty flavor.  Got it on-line.  It's more expensive than the Fortress protein powder that I get at Walmart, but definately worth the extra $

I like GNC Whey Protein - chocolate - with skimmed milk - can't stand it with water.
Actually, it's very tastey.  I mix it either in my small blender on weekends
or a plastic shaker type container to bring to work.  About 200 cals with
sk milk and approx 30 grams protein.

Good luck in your search!

Hi....I use Boost High Protein/ Glucose Control nutritional  drinks. I like the chocolate best. 16 grams of protein and only 4 grams of sugar.I can't stand the gritty,chalky ones either. I hate the aftertaste from them too. I sometimes freeze these and eat them like ice cream....yummy!

I like the EAS products.

If you want a nice ready to go shake I like the AdvantEDGE Carb Control shake.  It has low carbs and high protein.    100 cals, 17 protein, 3g net carbs.

I also us the EAS WHEY Protein powder (mix with water) as my in between snacks.  Taste good.  Low cal and high protein.

FYI - You can buy the ready to go AdvantEDGE Carb Control shakes at Walmart.

Aloha Terri......I used to drink the EAS from Walmart and it was OK. I just recently bought from Costco a drink by Premier that is just called PROTEIN....it has 30 grams of protein, 1 gram of sugar, low fat....and it is excellent! I bought a case of them and have one now every morning. Nice BIG shot of protein to start the day.

Good luck!

Aloha nui loa,

I just tried for the first time another protein powder from Walmart.....comes in a 2 lb container.
I think it's called ADVANTAGE Whey Protein.  each scoop has 26 grams of protein....low carb and cal.  I mixed it with water....

 Matrix Cookies & Cream with chocolate Hood Calorie Countdown Milk, with ice, in a blender.
You'd think it was a McDonald's chocolate shake.

Also, "Believe" Cappacino drink - 20 gms protein, less than 6 gms sugar & carbs.   Available at Bariatric Eating (I think it is made for that store).   This has taken the place of my Starbucks - I loved the frappucino drinks and they are just too loaded with sugar and no protein.

I like the Unjury vanilla or chocolate mixed with coffee and ice for a cold drink. Mixes smooth without a blender. It's important to get it really cold so add lots of ice. My favoite is to mix 10 oz of cool coffee with a heaping scoop of chocolate and a small banana in a blender with a few ice cubes and (shame on me) a little half and half. Then pour it over a big glass of ice.
