I have discovered that Premier Protein is AWFUL!
My favorite is the Unjury Chocolate Splendor, and the Syntrax Cappuccino, but I also like the Adkins chocolate pre-made shakes too. Prior to surgery, I took the advice here, and ordered samples from Unjury, and Syntrax. Fortunately, my tastes didn't change post-op, so I went ahead and bout the larger tubs. It's really just a trial and error process in the beginning. Unfortunately, the downside of this is cost.
I did the same exact thing last week. Everyone raved about it so I thought, everyone can't be wrong. Well, they were! I made the HUGE mistake of buying them in a aluminum can...hello what was I thinking. Nothing taste good in an aluminum can unless it's Pepsi. I threw the 3 I had left away because they were disgusting.
Also, I messaged you with some advice. Good luck!!!
Slim Fast low carb shakes have good stats (not the high protein ones, be sure it's the low carb). I lived on these about a month post-op (did not care for anything pureed so I stuck to shakes for a long time)

After trying 3 different kinds of powder, I bought my latest one called Syntha 6 Chocolate Milkshake on Amazon. I promise you it is the BEST tasting shake I have EVER had. I blend it with a 6oz of milk and some ice, and I swear to you it tastes just like a chocolate milkshake, but not overly sweet. Seriously look it up on Amazon, every review raves about the taste, and it has 22 grams of protein a serving. I think I may post about it on this forum just to let everyone know how awesome it is. I actually get excited to drink it in the mornings. Plus it keeps me full for hours! and I haven't even had the surgery yet.
