I have been scouring the internet for liquid protein drinks like Isopure.. I was quoted 245 Euros for some nasty Prosure milky vanilla drinks.. (18 servings)... and thought "THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING ELSE!!!"...
So here it is.. Have NO idea what it tastes like. but need it, so have ordered it..
I have found 'Reflex Whey Refresh".. it comes in three flavours.. Rhubarb, Fruit Punch and Orange... 500ml gives 40g of protein!..It comes in sports bottles. 39.85 (GBP) for 20 bottles. so that will give me almost 3 weeks of protein... before I hit the protein shakes stage
have just ordered a case... they DO deliver to Spain (from the UK)...

I just was banded on June 9. I have been drinking Unjury protein drink which has 20 grams of protein per serving. I mix it with sugar free carnation instant breakfast and it is very good. You can order the Unjury on-line. It is about $19.00 plus S&H for I believe it has 17 servings. Hope this helps.
I love unjury vanilla mixed with orange juice- I have to limit myself due to the carbs in the orange juice, but it tastes like an orange dreamsicle. I only drink this occassionally or when i'm on liquids after a fill.
I usually have sugar free carnation instant breakfast with skim milk every day for breakfast, even though i've been banded since March.

the thing to remember about protein drinks is they all basically have 20 grams of protein per scoop,so I say any brand is good just watch the carbs.I use the store brand at GNC comes in alot of flavors I love the chocolate carmel

OK, I just went and did the conversion for $245 Euros. HOLY CRAP!!!!! For only 18 servings??? I fed the three of us here in Arizona for three WEEKS off of that much money. OUCH.
I buy my protein shakes at Walmart. They're less than ten dollars for the package (EAS Advantage) and have 20g of protein in them per scoop. They're not the greatest things in the world, but then again I still have yet to find one that I go "WOW!" over.
anyone know of a kosher protein powder? For those of you not Jewish, look on the bottle for a symbol of a u surrounded by a circle, or a k surrounded by a circle. This means that these products are certified as kosher by an agency. I am looking for one that is NOT primarily soy based, but am out of luck so far.
Any advice?

I like New-Whey Protein bullets the best. They have 42 grams of protein and I add one with about 12 oz of water and it taste great! I also like the Nectar powder, road-side lemonaid is best! You can purchase all of these at vitaminshoppe.com
