Cheaper but equally tasty alternative to Chike?



Recommended Posts

I started with Chike' date=' then because of the price went to Fit Frappe and now Java Pro but i think the best is my own coffee blended with unflavored, vanilla or sometimes even chocolate Protein powder. Sometimes I brew coffee the night before and refrigerate it and sometimes I make the cold coffee concentrate you often see on the Internet. My most favorite is Keurig Donut House iced coffee chilled and then blended with NOW unflavored Protein and some ice. I keep a few of those little rubbermaid 1/2 cup containers always filled with a scoop of unflavored powder because a few times I have had to run out of the house in a hurry and all I had to do was grab my shaker bottle and my little container of powder and buy iced coffee somewhere to mix with it.[/quote']

This seems to be what is working for everyone so I ordered some vanilla Protein Powder. We have a Nespresso so getting a nice shot of espresso into it will be easy.

I looove Chike, but lately I've been using Big Train's Fit Frappe in Espresso or Mocha. I bought a giant tub of Isopure Protein powder in the Columbian coffee flavor from Vitamin Shoppe, and thought it was just hideous. To me it tastes like chemicals, yuck.

Sometimes I do a scoop of chocolate Protein, a scoop of espresso/mocha, and 1 Tbsp of PB2 powder, mix with ice and Water for a delicious frozen treat. Yum!!!

      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!!
