I was driving home the other day and saw a Complete Nutrition store, so I decided to check it out.

I told the guy what I was looking for and he led me to some huge containers of Protein powder. I asked if he had any small packets I could buy to try it before I wasted my money on a huge container I wouldn't like. He said that I could try some in store, or he could send me some home to try. I opted for some to take home.

He gave me 2 full size scoop samples, put into nice reusable cups with lids. He gave me "Reclaim Smart Smoothie" in chocolate mint and mochachino latte - He said that he prefers to make his the night before and keep them in the fridge.

I decided to try that method. I tried the mochachino latte first since I'm not a fan of coffee, I figured I'll save the best for last, lol. I made it that night and tried it the next morning. OMG it was so good! I couldn't believe I found something I liked. It didn't have a strong mocha taste by any means, it was just right.

I tried the chocolate mint the next day and it was even better. So good! Niether left any kind of aftertaste at all. It was easy to mix and no clumps.

120 calories per scoop, 4 carbs, 2 fat, 20 grams protein.

Now, I know that there are many shakes out there with much more protein, but I just can't stomach those. The smell alone makes me want to vomit. You can open up the container of these and it just smells so good - you can't smell the protein or Vitamins at all!

Also, it was kind of expensive. 39.99 for a 1.5 pound container. I bought two and had a coupon (found online) for 10 off of 40. It was 75.55, 23 servings for each container - so for that price it comes out to 1.62 per shake - which I don't think was bad at all. Afterall, it was so good and something I can actually stomach.

I will look for those tomorrow. A great tasting shake is a good find. Especially if you do not have to mix it yourself, or add ting to a premade powder to make it taste better.

I bought the Reclaim smoothie mixes a few years back when I was weight training and needed something to help with muscle mass and energy levels. I love them! Now that I've had my surgery, I'm using them as well for supplements. You're right -- they don't taste particularly like a protein shake. They're more like a treat.
