fruity protein drinks?
ok so i went to GNC today to buy some protein drinks for preop diet starting tuesday, and also for after. they didn't have the cytosport fruit ones i'm gonna have to go to the vitaminshoppe and see if they are there. i did grab 1 isopure bottle instead of buying a bunch for 4.29$ each i got 1 to try first. definitely dislike it. the flavor is fine it's the after taste that feels like there is fur growing on my tongue i cannot get used to. is there any other ones anyone can recommend(besides the cytosport i still have to find that)
I drink Syntrax Nectar in Twisted Cherry, Carribean Sky and Roadside Lemonade. GNC doesnt' sell them though they have them at Vitamin Shoppe. They don't come in RTD. I usually mix them with a packet of Crystal Light it seems to cover that funky after taste. You can order samples by calling Syntrax or from www.vitalady.com, www.bjsbariatrics.com and a few other sites. I know if you buy the whole container from Vitamin Shoppe and hate it they will take it back so if you need it before they can ship it to you that is an option.
I personally think the Cytosport has a much worse aftertaste. The taste is similar, just much stronger, to that of Isopure.
Try Syntrax nectar. I didn't love them but they were OK and they did not have any aftertaste in my opinion.

I agree with you on the Isopure aftertaste. I thought Cytosport was a step up in less-aftertaste. Even better is Designer Whey's ProteinBlitz. I've been drinking that for a month or so and buy it at Vitamin Shoppe. Personally, I'm not a fan of smoothie-type proteins, tho that may change post op!
