Protein brand help



Recommended Posts

So everywhere I go I see EVERYONE drinks premire Protein. Now I know i can get a bulk of it at Sam's Club but I can't find a single or a 4 pack to try before I splerge on a big pack.

Any other brands that are just like this brand or even better? Help please

I don't care for Premier, I prefer either Unjury or Muscle MIlk like pre-mixed. however, i know there are a TON of brands out there.

for ME, Premier were too thick. I like a thinner shake much more, and with ice and extra milk added to it!

Its all about ones taste buds i think muscle milk is thick and prefer premier you can go to Walmart and but a 4 pack of premere and try it for yourself, but remember your tastebuds will change and although you may like one Protein Shake now it may change, it may be too sweat or to thick. Good luck.

That's what I'm never about whether or not I'd like it after surgery

I've tried EAS carb control chocolate shakes. I'd rank them right behind Premier Protein chocolate in how good they taste. EAS is sold in 4 packs at Walmart, for about $5/per pack. I've never seen Premier Protein Shakes sold individually or in 4 packs.

If you like EAS, then I think you'll like Premier even better.

I love Premier Protein!! It took a week for my taste buds to get used to them, but there are times where I crave one. I have never seen them in a 4 pack.

If you're looking to try something available in a 4-pack, try those Atkins shakes maybe?? There's a woman whose weight loss website I have been reading for a year, and when she goes on a sugar detox, she likes to drink those 1 every other hour from 8 am to 5 pm I believe, then she eats a low carb dinner.< /p>

I started with Unjury, which I thought was good with light vanilla soy milk.. It didn't take long before I got really tired of having to mix it so I switched to Premier. It tastes ok.. when I first started drinking it, I would try my best not to smell it cause it's a little off-putting.. but it's not bad. After 5 months of drinking Protein Shakes, I've stuck with it.. not because it's the best tasting, but because it's the most convenient. Although, I must admit.. I do appreciate that it has more Protein and vitamins/minerals as well.

Yeah there are 4 packs but it's impossible to fine I've checked EVERYWhere even tried to buy a 4 pack online and I couldn't it's like I'mpossible. I think I'm just gonna say eff it and buy the big pack after surgery and learn to love it. I've tried Unjury shakes but I don't feel like I'll always want to blend it myself haha!

I just found a local brand that a health food store in my town makes. It's medical quality and I've gotta say, it's darn good!

I have been using Isopure because it's low carb but they seemed a little grainy and, I know this will sound weird, but felt like they dried out my lips.

The one from the health food store is only 150 calories, 3 carbs and 25 grams of Protein and it's super thin. The strawberry tastes really good. I'm going to try the banana tomorrow.

unjury sells an assortment of single packs so that you can try different flavors. I ordered before surgery and then tried them after surgery to see which ones I liked. The Milk Muscle light chocolate is good. I buy a case at costco.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
