What brand of protein drink/powder do you use?

I've been using the EAS Advantedge pre-made protein shakes, but I'm getting very bored with them. I have one every day for breakfast since that's about all I can get down first thing in the morning. I'm looking for a protein powder that tastes good, or has no taste, so I can add some variety in my shakes . Some recipes would be helpful as well :)

I love the MyFitFoods protein powder and I mix it with chocolate milk or Milk and apple juice- it is a great whey protein!!

I use Premier Protein shakes from Sam's Club. They have 30 gr. protein, 1gr. sugar, 160 cal, and 5 carbs. The Chocolate is fantastic, and I get 12 - 11oz. shakes for 18.88 . 2 packs last me for 2 weeks and they are so filling! I love them!

Darn! I was at Sam's today and I kept going back to it. I was comparing it to my Optifast I had which seems very comparable but a lot cheaper! I like that it comes a re sealable container too. You have convinced me, the next time I go to Sam's I am picking up a case of the chocolate. Just curious, have you tried the vanilla? I figured I might be able to blend fresh strawberries with the vanilla. Thanks so much for the info! I go to Sam's on the average of 3 times a month. I'm so looking forward to picking up a case.

Pure Protein Frosty Chocolate and GNC Total Lean Vanilla Bean...yum!

I have Baractric Advantage. The vanilla and chocolate are pretty good. You can add fruits to the vanilla to make some tasty shakes. I would say you could do that with any vanilla flavor. My favorite is to add a spoonfull of peanut butter to the chocolate. It is so good. These were recipes that they gave me at my doctors office when I got the powder before my surgery. I am on clear liquids right now and will be glad to get back to those shakes.

I drink the vanilla premium protein from Sams and they are great!!

There are unflavored protein powders out there, Walgreens sells a couple brands, that I put in my morning oatmeal or yogurt to add extra protein to my food. After 2.5 weeks of the flavored protein shakes I don't know if I can do them again.

Thanks for the suggestions. I will have to try them.

Check these out at Costco. They are on sale right now. 18 pack for 19.00

I just bout 2 I love them much better thank muscle milk

I've been using vanilla and chocolate from unjury. I've added banana to the chocolate one and sometimes will add a spoonful of peanut butter as well for a change in flavor. I've tried the strawberry sorbet, but didn't care too much for it, but I'm not a big strawberry fan either.

So I usually choose the low carb options for my Protein drinks but this morn I didn't have that option and my asst had one of the instant breakfasts....

So my question is do you all ever get sick when you drink something super sweet- I mean I drank one swallow and got sick!!

Still understanding my band!

I love muscle milk, I don't even bother with the light stuff, the regular stuff is only 220 calories a bottle. They are filling and come in so many flavors. My favorites are banana, strawberry, and cookies & cream. They aren't cheap, but when I'm hungry and in a bind, I know I can go to any convenience store or gas station and get one chilled and ready to go for about 3 dollars. I usually get them on the way to class when I'm looking at 10 hours of class

I like Jay Robb protein. One of my favorite blender recipes is vanilla protein with a cup of trop 50 oj, ice, some torani sugar free orange syrup, and a tsp of dry orange sugar free jello. Yum, yum!

Add pb2 to your protein powder to change the flavor, it's awesome 8EXTRA g. Of protein for 2 tablespoon and tastes just like peanut butter!! Yummmy
