Needing Ideas On Making Skakes Better.

Can anyone give me some ideas to add variety for protien shakes

I added yogurt to mine it's really good (flavored)

Someone posted to add Peanut Butter or different flavored Syrup but I don't think I can have that on pre op

Do u blend it with ice

First off I usually have a few different flavored Protein powders- vanilla, plain, chocolate, peaches n' cream. That usually helps. Avacado makes a smoothy really creamy, I've tried just about every fruit under the sun and bananas and some berry is usually the best. I have also tried mixing my drink with almond milk, coconut milk, plain milk for variety. What else can you do to mix it up.........................sugar free syrups, the kind you buy for coffee drinks can help give you more flavor options too. Hope it helps. Wish I could fix the consistency- that's what I struggle with. Good Luck! :-)

I'm still 2 mo. away from surgery so I'm not sure how "legal" it is because a banana dosent seem like it has a place in VSG, but my favorite is.....

2 scoop Isopure Zero Carb Dutch chocolate

1 or 2 tbsp (depending on how MFP is looking)

1 banana

**I use Water and ice and blend it real good!

Even w/o the banana chocolate & Peanut Butter is super good! I love the Isopure brand and have been using their Proteins for many years! I'm crossing my fingers I still like them after surgery! GNC sells them, but Amazon gives the best deals!

For the past 5 months pre surgery I have been compiling a list of different Protein Shake recipies. If you will email me at klaws2719@yahoo I will gladly send it to you.

You can also add sugar free soda the blender takes out the carbonation. I used to love adding 6oz of sugar free orange crush, ice cubes, vanilla Protein Powder and mandarins oranges to make an orange creamsical Protein Shake. It was my favorite pre-op drink recommended by my surgeons office.
