Need Protein drink ideas



Recommended Posts

I have had the same problem. I just find ways to dress them up a little and stay within the guide lines of what I can have. At first I hated the chocolate that I got from GNC, but then I added 8 ounces of milk, and three frozen cherries and it was much more palatable! I know when I can add my fruits to them again I will be happy with the vanilla! As the fruit is what makes the taste! Wish I could help you more then that! but its hard to tell someone else what they will like, when you don't really enjoy them yourself!

My favorite premixed shakes, I get from Wal-Mart and Sam's Club - EAS Carb Control chocolate fudge and Premier Protein chocolate. Premier slightly edges out EAS for my tastes.

I get the vanilla body fortress from Walmart. I flavor it with Apple pie spice or imitation banana,strawberry,or raspberry flavorings. Sometimes I use sugar free Hershey chocolate or strawberry Syrup. Lots of combos with these ingredients. chocolate banana or strawberry banana, etc.

I agree with the Premier Protein Shakes- I can get them at costco (chocolate is better) for about $25 for 18. That lasts me 9 days but they have some of the highest grams of Protein per shake out there with 30. I love that they are portable and if you put them in the freezer for about 30 min before you have it, it is sooo much better. At home I mix a full shake with about 1/2 cup crushed ice and a half banana and it makes all the difference.

Just had the most incredible tasting Protein shake. Syntrax Matrix 2.0 Peanut Butter cookie flavor. Tasted like a REAL Peanut Butter cookie. Bought it from the store at my Bariatric Center.

Check out Isopure. It tastes like Gatorade, comes in a bunch of flavors, and has 40grams of whey Protein in a 20oz bottle. I buy mine from GNC. I also started drinking Protein shakes from Jay Robb. (his name and picture are on the package) (GNC) It tastes so smooth you forget you are drinking a Protein shake.

I love the Designer whey in White chocolate with 8oz Lactaid milk. The Lean Protein in Chocolate is fantastic - that is premixed and powder. The Isopure is pretty good - all kinds of flavors.

There are two I have found over the years that I like pretty well. I am a very picky eater, I must have tried 100 different Protein powders over the years.

The first one I like the best is called "nectar" You can get it @ GNC or Vitamin World. It comes in 30 flavors or so. One scoop has 27gm Protein, no sugars. I get the tropical flavor, I mix one scoop of powder, one individual crystal light fruit punch packet, and add Water. I love this in the summer because its made with Water not milk. It's light not heavy.

The other one I like that I just started using is called Bariatric Advantage. Again, not super heavy because you use water to mix.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
