Keeping my fingers crossed!

I really dislike the taste along with the idea of artificial sweeteners! They tend to be way too sweet and have a bad aftertaste. I've been searching for a flavored Protein shake without aspartame or sucralose and it's was not as easy to find as you may think.

This morning I came across an article on clean eating that had a review on Protein shakes. The article mentioned the brand,Only Protein, so I checked out the website.... It sounds very promising! No aspartame or sucralose, it's sweetened with stevia. Only Protein offers just two flavors, vanilla & chocolate and I bought them both. I'm thinking of adding decaf instant coffee or PB2 to add variety.

I am keeping my fingers crossed and hope the shakes taste good and are not to sweet. In the past I have used half flavored and half unflavored Protein powder mixed it together which really helps cut down on the sweetness. With shipping and handling, it's a bit pricey. I am fortunate that my "Live free or die" State of New Hampshire does not have sales tax. Even so.... since I will need to supplement my diet with protein shakes, it's worth it to have one I like.

I am in the UK and I haven't drunk a single Protein shake to supplement my diet. Couldn't stomach them from day 1 so I used fortified milk, drank it and added it to my Soups etc. It's helped me not to rely on shakes. Now just over a month out from surgery, I am on soft foods and getting in most of my protein from eating. But I know that's not possible for everyone...

Hope you find something you can drink - and good luck :-)

Atkins shakes are not bad tasting and they have 15g of protein. I do not like shakes and I realky like the taste of Atkins.
