Tired Of Protein...any Suggestions!

I have bought expensive protein and cheap protein and they all seem the same. I have done elaborate recipes with pudding, crystal light, etc. and I am still sick of protein. Someone said to try Herbalife...any suggestions on how to get over this hump? I know I have to have 60-80g. of protein daily.

Don't know how far out you are, but when you can eat, you will be able to get much of your protein from food. I still supplement with one premiere protein shake a day (from Costco), these are the only ones that I can drink. I, too, spent hundreds on expensive protein crap that I couldn't choke down. I have found that even with the premiere ones, they have to be really cold (or partially frozen), and I drink them out of a small cup, so that I am less likely to smell it while drinking. The smell of some of those things makes me heave, Ick-o. One time I tried to drink one directly out of the carton and couldn't do it, I don't know why that makes a difference, but for me it does.

I like the muscle milk, but ony the cake batter and strawberries and creme. and i can't do any of the powders only the premixed.

I cant take anymore protien shakes either,nd my breath smells bad because of it...i brush at least 4times a day..

i am sick of protein shakes as well. so instead of the shakes i eat beans, chicken, turkey ground, eggs, yogurt, protein bars, lunch meat, shrimp and fish in order to get my protein

What exactly are you tired of? Milk based proteins, or the concept of shakes? I like to mix hemp protein in 4oz of Naked® mango purée and blend with a few ice cubes. The mango flavor is strong enough that I use to mask almost anything. Unfortunately it's not very low calorie, but that's why I only use 4oz.
