Rockin the protein shake



Recommended Posts

I try and try to find ways to make the Protein shakes taste better. I have decided that I like the EAS brand in Choc and Body Fortress in vanilla (like the price on this one) There is about 20-23 Protein in one scoop.

I put about 12 oz of ice, 8 oz of Water , 1 scoop Protein powder and then....add 1/4 pkg of sugar free pudding mix (instant) whatever flavor....all kinds go with vanilla. Put in blender and make a shake. Play around with it some...you may need a tiny bit more P. powder, or a bit more pudding......I sometimes put a little splenda. With the Chocoate, put a little cocoa powder (only 10 cal in tbsp). This helps the shakes so much. Very good!!!!

Hope this helps some.:cursing:

Love the pudding idea. I got it from Betsy B. I gave up w/ using Water and use the unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk. It is so worth the calories and makes the shake truly like a shake.

Mmm! Such a good idea.

My shakes taste like absolute garbage, so I put a spoonful of yogurt and some frozen berries in there and blend. This is a great idea too!

I make a smoothie every morning and have found (thru trial and error) that the ones I like the best are made with the Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60 from GNC. I use the chocolate and the vanilla and mix with fat free milk, banana, and other fruits like peaches, mango, strawberries, etc. I also use Greek yogurt and sometimes I add almond butter. You can use Peanut Butter, but I prefer the almond butter. Add ice and blend well. It makes a lot and is very filling and gives me about 30+ grams of Protein depending on what I add. I use 8 oz. of milk.

I might try some of these other ideas too. Thanks for sharing.

I keep frozen fruit in the freezer and have several flavors of Protein Shakes. I also add some splenda for sweetness. Makes a great Breakfast and travels well!

I accidentally stumbled over a Protein Drink on a website called Chike. It's really good and for a very small investment, I think it was 6.95 which pays for the shipping, you get 5 samples of product. I've order 3 tubs of it, Vanilla, chocolate and banana and the Protein count is 28. Very tasty, no aftertaste that i've experienced with others.

I hate chike! It's what my surgeon recommends so I have half a thing of vanilla and a thing of orange creame with less than five servings out of it. You should totally take it off my kitchen counter! Lol pm me

If you like coffee (I LOVE the stuff!), I've found an espresso Protein Powder called Click. I enjoy it when I'm craving a coffeehouse drink, it gives me a little extra Protein (14 grams), it's only 120 calories for a 14 oz. serving, and it tastes great!!! I have it hot or cold (mostly cold), and they have mocha and vanilla flavors, as well as Decaf. When I'm really watching my calories, I mix it with Water, but as a Meal Replacement, I use skim milk, ice, and sometimes a shot of SF French vanilla or caramel Syrup for a flavor boost. So far, my favorite Protein Shake, but looking for others that don't have the "protein taste".

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
