I know it's not vanilla, but they work well for me.

I also have another question. I have been getting pain in the back of my shoulder when I drink shakes. I get this when I over eat but why when I am taking in liquids? It is so painful.

Are you blending the shakes with ice to the point where they are frothy on top? That got me. You can try to let your shake sit for a while before drinking it because it has lots of air mixed in.

Good idea but I was noticing when drinking I was surprised it was not very cold.

Pretty sure the pain is from all of the air. See if it makes a difference to stir with a spoon rather than use a blender. Not sure about why it isn't staying too cold.

I decided to go with Bodytech whey tech pro 24. It is a Vitamin Shoppe brand and on sale until the end of month. I bought 2lbs of chocolate and 2lb of vanilla for $38.00. Then i bought unsweetened almond milk vanilla for 30 calories a cup.

Please let me know how it is. I looked at that same brand when I was in Richmond for my adjustment. I ended up getting Designer Whey. I like it, but I like to try a new brand each month. Hope you're doing great. I'm still hoping we can meet for coffee sometime soon.

I saw where someone else posted this as well, but I use whey protein shake by body fortress...I like the taste of this as well as price at wal-mart.

I have heard that your body can absorb only a certain amount of Protein. You might want to check with your nutritionist if you have not already. It is an additional. 110 calories you are adding plus anything else you add to shake. I add half frozen banana and a heaping tbls of natural Peanut Butter made from only peanuts nothing else added and a cup of 30 calorie vanilla unsweetened almond milk. Two scoops wild not be nutritional for me. Just a thought I may be wrong. I am very glad to know that you like the shake. It is so hard to find the right one,
