Having trouble drinking all the protein Shakes, anyone found protein pills?



Recommended Posts

What is giving you trouble? The taste? Do they settle bad? I couldnt' find a good tasting one so I bought the ottawala protien drinks and I take 3/4 a serving (not a bottle) blend it with 1 cup goat's milk but any milk would do fine, 1 tbs of yogurt and 1/4 a banana then I add some ice and voila it's yummy. Here are the stats

This is for 1 serving. Like I said I get about 3 shakes out of a 2 serving bottle.

220 calories

4gm fat

27 carbs

18 protien

Plus you have to add in your info from your milk/banana/yogurt.

My goal is to be between 800-1000 calories/day eventually so this might be too many calories for you. You can always dilute it down with more skim milk and ice but it works for me.

Please let someone find a pill for Protein. I was just telling my mom the other day, whoever made a pill for protein would probably be very rich. Let me know if you find one and where.

Yeah, they come in chocolate too. I may have to break down and buy some . I want to order some whey gournet Peanut Butter and chcolate from netrition too, and the shipping is 4.99 for no matter how much stuff you order. Those crisps sound good to put into yogurt. I use Greek yogurt, because it has way less carbs and more Protein but it would be good to add a little more protein.

What about those protien bullets? For being so small they have alot of protien in them! Maybe that would be easier than a big shake..Just a thought.......

From what I have been told, the bullets are not 100% whey Protein so it won't be absorbed as efficiently.

      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! 😞
