The Absolute Best Protein Shake



Recommended Posts

I have finally found the best Protein Shake. I've been experimenting with making different shake recipes. I made this one for my morning shake today and I loved it!

214 Calories (which is fine for me as I try to get 200 for breakfast)

18 carbs (same as above, the majority of my carbs come in the morning)

3 grams fat

32 grams Protein

49 grams of Calcium (this is big for me!)

14 grams of sugar - a little high but the sugar is mostly from the fruit and yogurt

1/2 cup Unsweetened Coconut Milk

1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt (I used Chobani)

1 scoop chocolate Protein Powder (I used Unjury Chocolate Splendor)

4 small Strawberries, halved

2 T. Torani sugar-free vanilla Syrup

4 Ice Cubes

Blend in Magic Bullet or Blender and Enjoy!

This sounds so delish! I wouldn't think coconut milk was allowed- I love coconut! Do you have any recipes using extracts and unflavored protein powder? My nut gave me samples of "Bariatric Advantage" and the unflavored was the best- you can really taste whatever you add, like strawberries and I used pumpkin pie spice for a fall-ish taste (even though it's still hot and humid in NY!).

My NUT said Coconut Milk is great. It's not really sweet or anything. It's also not the condensed kind like you buy for cooking. I only use flavored Protein Powder, and only powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury brand as that's the brand I like. I also use Unjury's chicken broth flavor in Soups and recipes calling for chicken broth. Good source of Protein.

I make a pumpkin shake with pumpkin, the pumpkin spice, vanilla protein powder and some sugar free Torani syrup! It's. Good too.

I just froze some banana slices and I'm going to try a chocolate shake with banana, Greek yogurt, and vanilla Syrup for tomorrow's Breakfast I'll let you know how it comes out.

Thanks for recommending Unjury Protein Shakes- I wanted to order my 3 week Pre-op supply. I called the 800 number and the sales person was so helpful- explaining what whey protein is, providing me samples of other flavors and recipes. I had no idea what the health and weight loss benefits were from whey protein! Now I know! Thanks!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
