Okay, some of these shakes are too frothy for me. I can't stand drinking that foam. I really don't like any foam. Yuck! But I can tolerate SOME. Can any of you please give me some insight into what kind of blender I should buy. The one I have is not cutting it and shaker/blender bottles also makes them way to frothy. Please, anyone, help!!

I love my vortex battery operated cup. Uses batteries and blends Protein powders really great. Great when on the go or at work. Now doesn't blend fruit and stuff.

The froth makea me feel yuck, too. I have taken to making my Protein Shakes more like an iced coffee. I mix the powder in about 1/4 cup of milk in a small cup and let it sit for a few minutes so it blends. Then, I pour it into a larger cup, filled with ice, with the other 3/4 cup of milk. Stir. Absolutely no froth!!!

I use a Ninja blender. Some models come with several detachable blending bowls. I use the single serve 16 ounce blending cups. After blending, you unscrew the blade top and screw on the sippy cup attachment and you are ready to go.

It blends Protein powders will Water to a fine consistency. It is easy to add a banana or other fruit into the Protein shake. It pulverizes ice if you want to cool down the Protein Shake.< /p>

Thanks for the information. I've never seen one of those vortex blenders before. That would be great for work. I have looked at the ninja, but wasn't sure if it lived up to the claims. Good to hear from a real user. I will try mixing with a little bit of milk then adding the rest until I find something that works for me. I really can't drink anymore foam. Yuck! I really appreciate the input!!

Just let your shakes set for a few minutes, the foam will dissipate, then you can enjoy your masterpieces :)

How about those stick blenders sit in on the bottom of the jug and mix that way you will get less froth.

Me personally I love the froth I find it makes it more creamy yum yum.

Thank you for the let sit for a min suggestion. I hate re froth so much I stopped drinking the Protein Shakes, but my weight loss has slowed. I will try your recommendation and I pray it works. post-253058-14314644526398_thumb.jpg

Another suggestion is to make the shake the night before and leave it in the fridge. By the time you have it in the morning any froth will gave dissipated and maybe you might have some powder formed on the bottom of you shaker etc but all you need to do is grab a spoon and give it a small quick stir.. Voila! Froth-less shake :). I do this every night, as i too hate the froth!

I use a Nutribullet and then let mine sit!

Love my NutriBullet but hate the foam as well. Here's what I've learned. Just take a long handled spoon and stir it after blending. The foam dissipates almost immediately. Couldn't live without my NutriBullet!

I was thinking about this last night and thought what if you mix a bit of Water in the powder to make a paste then slowly add water and stir gently gradually adding more and more water to your liking being careful to not stir to vigorously.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
