A few months ago I searched locally for PB2, and finally resorted to the internet, and have a package.....now the question is, how do you mix it with your Protein drinks? And, what else are people doing with the PB2 besides adding it to shakes?

I put it in an insulated, metal thermos with chocolate premier Protein Drink and agressivly shook it.......it tasted good, but I have sludge at the bottom of the container and lots of lumps in the drink........how are you all mixing it up?

Thanks!

I haven't tried in shakes yet. But when I do I think I will probably break out the blender. I enjoy the stuff "old school", just straight up reconstituted with water!! Yummm. I was told our local Walmart (in Dayton OH ) now carries PB2 in the aisle with the Peanut Butter. Keep checking! ( I bought mine online too)

What is PB2?

One of the best inventions since the wheel!!! LOL It is basically dehydrated Peanut Butter. They reduce all the oils out until you get a powder. That you reconstitute with Water. A two tablespoon serving has 45 calories and 1.5g of fat. I happen to have a jar of "reduced fat" peanut butter at home..It is 210 calories and 12g fat!!! No comparison. And I like the flavor. Some may not if they want the "full fat" peanut butter taste. But if you really, really like the taste of peanuts then you should give it a try!

For every 8oz of liquid (milk, water) add 2 tablespoons of PB2. 2 tablespoons is one serving of PB2. I add it to my chocolate Protein drinks every morning.

I think the best part of the PB2 in shakes is the lumps of PB2 you get. But if you don't like the lumps you can get a shaker bottle with the little wire ball. That seems to help break down the lumps.

Also I use it to make icing for my Protein cupcakes I make. If you want to check the recipe at here is the link: http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/95285-protein-cupcakes-with-pb2-icing/page__hl__%2Bprotein+%2Bcupcakes

I may have put some PB2 on some frozen yogurt. I also have mixed a little jelly with it. Sometimes I eat it straight up with a s.f. Fudge pop. 7g. Protein small snack

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
