I Think I'm Addicted To My Protein Shake



Recommended Posts

So I know there have been lots of posts and discussions about Protein and Protein shakes and powders etc. I happen to love the Pure Protein Shakes in the can. I found them by accident and have started a love affair with them. The problem is that there not for sale just anywhere. I order mine off of Amazon in a subscribe and save, to cut down on cost but the shipping time is crazy long. I ordered these on the 8th and just got them today. And I like them so much that I save them for the weekdays but there are only 12 cans in a pack so I'm spending quite a bit of money to get them....but I find that on days when I don't have one I snack more and crave junk more. It is so weird to me because I have never found a Protein shake that I like before. I can tolerate the powder ones for a little bit but they gross me out. I haven't tried the unflavored yet though and I mean to try it. But for now I think I will stick to these and keep loosing weight cause it's working.

Plus I can put the chocolate flavored ones in my cofffee with a tiny bit of peppermint extract and I feel like I have a peppermint mocha coffee, which makes my insides very happy!

PS If anyone knows where I can get them cheaper please let me know!

I get the Premier Protein shakes from costco. They are really good, 30gr Protein, and only 1 gr sugar. They are less expensive than the ones online and I dont have to pay shipping either (They are about $24 for 18 shakes)

Do you have a "Vitamin Shoppe" near you? I think I saw those in multi-packs at the one close to me (Nashville)...but I don't remember how much they were. You could also ask your local pharmacy how much it would cost for them to order in large quantities for you..??

I've seen these at GNC.. just the chocolate and vanilla ones though. I definitely agree about the flavor. They are the best I've had and have no after taste at all. I fell in love with the banana and the Cookies and cream. I put mine in the freezer and it's almost like having a malt.

Thanks ladies unfortunately I don't have a costco or Vitamin Shoppe around me and I can't seem to order the shakes from Costco's website because they aren't listed. I guess since mine cost roughly 23.97 and that includes shipping, that I will just stick with my Pure Protein Shakes until I can get to a Costco and grab some of those.

I really want to try the Cookies n cream next. I had thought about putting mine in the freezer, especially when I do my pre op since it will be full liquids. I thought if I froze one I could "eat" it and then feel like a person who can eat things.

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

      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! 😞
