why can't protein shakes taste good?



Recommended Posts

I use the Hawiian Punch (ocean orange) sticks. I mix it with 16oz of Water and use it as my liquid to mix with vanilla Protein Powder. It tates like an orange creamcicle!!

I bought the powdered PB2 Peanut Butter. And mix two tbs in my Premier Protein choc shake. Or a half small banana puréed in. Tastes good

Try the Vanilla Creme Oh Yeah RTDs or the Cookies and Cream Pure Protein RTDs. I'm picky and liked both of those... a lot!

Where can I get these?

I think its because they're made in a lab / factory.

I try to get the vast majority of my Protein from food. I don't want to be drinking multiple Protein shakes a day for the rest of my life that taste like poo.

I was having such a hard time finding the low carb and high enough Protein that I now only get it from food as well. Primarily shrimp, eff whites, beef Jerky, lunch meat and string cheese. I get at least 90-100 a day.

I love the chocolate Unjury powder in the morning. Mix it with about 1/2 cup skim milk and my cold coffee that is left and that is a great mocha! Not quite Starbucks but pretty darn good from where I stand!

I'm using GNC Pro Performance because my son is a high school athlete and it was in thle house. Overall its not very good tasting but it I found out you can work miracles with whatever Protein you have Go to:

www.the worldaccordingtoeggface.com Her Protein Shake recipes are incredible. They even make the GNC crap I'm using taste good. I also use Unjury flavorless and chicken flavor for adding protein to my hot foods.

The best I have found is the Dymatize Elite whey Protein in Gourmet Vanilla. It mixes well and can be flavored with a banana or any of the sugar free syrups. Also...Pintrest has some great Protein Shake ideas. =)

I found these yoohoo packets just like the crystal light packets. No calories no sugars no fats. I'll put them in my chocolate Protein Shakes 100 TIMES BETTER AND YUMM. Also sometimes i'll mash up a banana in a blender with it too. I have also gotten extracts. I used a mint one in chocolate. It was great.

I am giving away my unjury starter kit (Minus one packet). The first person to claim it get's it. All I ask is to send me a few bucks for postage (PayPal).

I bought the Ninja blending system and am making my own Protein shakes.

Is it gone yet....?

My favorites have been the nectar flavors...Vanilla Bean Torte, Double Stuffed Cookie, and Lemon Tea were all good. Had trouble stomaching anything else so far.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
