So when this journey began I started trying protein shakes for the first time. I know why I never drank them before. They are disgusting! I have wasted more money than I care to think about with cases of ready made and cans of powder still in my cabinets.

Finally, I have found the perfect protein shake for me. I put one Dole Shaker, one Chobani plain yogurt and a splash of sugar free liquid. Blend it for a few seconds in the blender and presto! A little taste of heaven!

20 grams of protein and 200 calories. Tastes like a milkshake and keeps me full till lunch.

Slight warning that these are not cheap. The Dole Shakers run around $2.20 and Chobani yogurt about $1.30, so you're looking at $3.50 per shake but well worth the money!

What are the Dole shakers?

Same quest wht is dole shaker & where do you get it? Joni2

I have also wasted on TON of money on protein products from GNC, Walmart and my doctor's office; the ONLY one I can tolerate is the UNflavored UNjury. . . add it to o.j., yogurt, milk ---> it's great; with about 21 grams of protein in one scoop.

I use Greek yogurt vanilla flavor. Some frozen fruit (blueberries raspberries and blackberries with a half banana and a little skim milk. Then into the blender and yummmm

So still waiting to hear about the dole shaker?

Sorry I dont know how to attach a link for the Dole Shakers but if you google it a picture will come up. They come from the freezer section where they have the frozen fruit and smoothies. The Dole Shakers have 100 calories and 5 grams of protein and the yogurt is 100 calories and 15 grams of protein.

I just looked the shakers up and I think I will have to give them a try. So you use plain Greek yogurt? What kind of sugar free liquid do you use?

Thanks for the follow up reply will have to try for sure

Sounds good, I will try it!

I use Minute Made 15 cal lemonade but you could use crystal lite too. Really anything just a splash to get the blender moving. Yes I use the plain yogurt because the Dole Splasher s sweet enough and if you use the flavored yogurt it would add 60 more calories.

Thank you so much for the tip! I am so tired of the same nasty protien drinks and they leave a horrible taste in my mouth! Can't wait to try this!

They have them at wal-Mart in the frozen section. They are a powder that you can mix milk or soy milk into, shake it and its ready to drink.

I love, love, love Syntrax Nectar protein powder. (Vitamin Shoppe/Amazon) I put the cappuchino flavor in my coffee and also like the Strawberry Kiwi. There are several flavors. You can mix them with yogurt and ice or just mix them with milk or cold water. They disolve completely and taste yummy. Yes, they too are pricey, but, a container lasts a long, long time!
