Favorite Vanilla Protein Powder/ready made??



Recommended Posts

I like Muscle Milk Light but it can be hard to find. It's easy to find in chocolate. There are a lot of people who don't like it though. They think it's too sweet. I guess I like sweet things!

What day is your surgery?

I love EAS French Vanilla and Atkin's French Vanilla RTD shakes, but the EAS can have a slight after taste if not shaken well, and the Atkin's can come out a little chunky.

Herbalife vanilla dream is really good. All of their flavors are good if you put them in the blender with ice and a teasp of sugar free Jello pudding powder (whatever flavor you want, cheescake and white chocolate.... yum) and blend, blend blend. of course I haven't started on my journey yet, I meet with my surgeon on 6/2, so i dont know if using a blender is ok or not, but these are delish.

I can not stomach RTD shakes!! I have tried many powders and the Protein taste just gags me.

I have found one that I really can not taste the protein at all. I am sooo happy!

It is called Pure Protein. They have it in chocolate and vanilla, but I have only tried the vanilla.!! I bought it at Walmart for $18. Target has it too!

Kelly :rolleyes:

I like the Bariatric Advantage Vanilla too, and the banana flavor is good. But, I strongly suggest making them with at least half milk...if made only with Water they taste too protein-ish. This powder comes out VERY thick and frothy if you whiz it in the blender. I just use a shaker.< /p>

I just tried a sample pack of Six Star Elite Series vanilla cream, and it was actually GOOD! It's not the lowest calorie stuff in the world (160 calories per scoop), but it has 26 grams of Protein. I made mine with 8 ounces of milk, and it really tasted almost like a vanilla milkshake. I don't know how it would do with Water, though, and it does shake up foamy. You can actually get single-serving packets at Walmart, so you can try it to see if you like it a lot. The 2-pound tubs of it are about $18 at Walmart.

BTW, I'm very sensitive to the taste of artificial sweeteners, and I really couldn't tell that it was made with sucralose (splenda).

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
