The gladiator protein powder from smoothie king

Has anyone used the gladiator protein powder from smoothie king?

I was wondering how people are liking it or not. I'm 3 days post op and I'm struggling to get my minimum of 80 grams of protein l... The gladiator had 40grams per serving so I was thinking of getting it for the high protein content.

I had my surgery July1 and am also having trouble with Protein. Did you try the gladiator??

I haven't tried it yet. I don't want to buy one when I know I won't be able to finish even the kid size... I hate to waste money...

If you try it let me know!

I use it. It's ok. My favorite is the unflavored unjury in fruit punch crystal light

I tried it and it was ok. A little strong. Not sure if I would be able to use it at home and drink it.

Just don't put fruit in it if you are still on full liquids. I basically drink 2 shakes a day, 1 water with protein and soup and about 4-5 sugar free Popsicles. I was sleeved on 7/17

Gladiator is the only protein drink I can stomach. I like it. I have them out strawberry and kiwi in. It's expensive though, like $5 a pop.

You can buy the powder and make them at home but it is $50...I jut don't think they would taste the same admin the store.... I was sleeved 7/1

I love Gladiator protein drinks! I buy the big tub. My NUT says I should use only one scoop and mix with milk. That makes it 22.5 g protein per serving. Not sure why she wouldn't want me to go ahead and get the full 45g in one sitting??

I hate both flavors of gladiator :(

I am trying to taste a few ......I went to smoothie king and ordered a strawberry gladiator he asked me which two fruits I wanted in it .....I told him none and he looked at me like I was crazy and told me that I needed to put fruits in it for texture and taste or I wouldn't like it.....I put strawberry and banana and it's really good! My question is, do you guys add fruit to it, or just mix the powder with water or milk?

Found this older post a friend was telling me today about Smoothie King and the Gladiator protein smoothies. If you add any fruits other than one serving of Pineapple or mango sorbet you go over the suggested sugar intake per meal. Has anyone tried these lately and how did you like it?

The Gladiator drinks at Smoothie King can be really good.

They are pricey......and....you can really rack up the calories if you let them add in all sorts of stuff. What starts out as a good idea can lead to a nutritional disaster.
