I really love the Choc and vanilla premier Protein. I get it at costco for 24.99 for 18. That is only a few cents a piece cheaper than Sam's.

I'll look at the Protein Bars. I'm a little afraid since they are cookie/candy like. I don't want to go down that slippery slope again.

Oh I can completely understand the cookie/candy thing and your totally right. They're good so I can see them being looked at as a sweet tooth luv????

I also have bought the Water called hint. It has nothing in it. It's lightly flavored water. The one I had tonight wax pomegranate Water. You can barely taste the flavoring but it's just enough to throw off the water taste. Give it s try. Got them at my local grocery store

Premier Protein chocolate is really good. You get 30 grams of Protein per serving. You can put it in the freezer for about 40 minutes and it's like having a frosty from Wendy's.

I got the already made 12 pack at Sam's Club for $17.

I pour the vanilla Premier Protein over ice every morning, add cold (decaf) coffee plus some SF Vanilla (I alternate other flavors on occassion) coffee Syrup by Torani and top it all off with light/fat free whip cream. Oh. My. Stars.

Now I will have to try the chocolate idea you mentioned with the freezer! Do you leave it in the container or pour it in a glass before putting it in the freezer?

I've tried so many and gagged my way through most of them but I finally found one that's amazing. Iso100, I had the fudge brownie, and it was sooooooo good! Would love to hear about what others like.

the Iso100 in cinnamon bun is soooooo good with warm coffee just mix a little with almond milk first till it dissolves then mix with hot coffee, yum! On treat days I squirt whipped cream on top with sprinkled powdered cinnamon! Who needs Starbucks????

Hi SassyNanny. They were packs of 12 at SAMs club. I just got them yesterday. The pictures I posted were all the choices SAMs had. They're so good. The Protein bars are really good too! Worth the purchase!

I don't have a Sam's membership but do like your post of a powder form of the Premier Protein :)

costco also carries the Premier Protein 18 pack for $24.99. Many times a coupon is available for less. Always have the 3 flavors vanilla, chocolate and strawberry in stock. By far they are my favor to this day 2 yrs out :)

Thx u for sharing info and pics!!

Oh my lands that sounds good! I'm going to have to try that.

I left it in the box. You can also heat it up like hot chocolate and add a little whipped cream on top.

As an FYI, although $7 something at Walmart for Premier, there are coupons out for $4 off, making a 4 pack $3 something. I know several people who ordered coupons from shippers and were able to stock up (they are good until April, and they seem to put out new ones as soon as the old ones expire). Walgreens recently had them 2 packs for 12, so I was able to get them for $2 per 4-pack!

I just ordered the premier bars from SAMs Club. I'm not a member but it let me order anyways. I checked out Amazon and SAMs club was much cheaper. I'm excited. I'm having trouble getting to my Protein numbers so the bars will help.

Oh your most welcome! Glad it helped you. The closest costco to me is about 17 miles so I opted for SAMs. I used to have both memberships but just cut down to one now. Sams will also slow coupons if you have them I think! Not positive. I believe if you break down the cost between the 12 pack and the 28 pack it's just pennies difference. Although with costco you'll get more tootsie home???? I have yet to try the strawberry. I need to look for that one! Yum!

My go to stuff has been have been:

Think-thin high Protein bars (peanut butter has 20g protein/240 cal, caramel has 10g protein/150 cal)

Six-Star Protein elite series Peanut Butter chocolate bar (20g protein/190 calories, 98 CENTS PER BAR, most delicious Protein Bar I've ever eaten)

Lifechoice Peanut Butter Protein Bar (18g protein/170 calories)

Premiere protein PowerCrunch peanut butter crisps (10g protein/160 calories, they satisfy the carb/chip cravings)

All of these are 7g sugar or less (one was 7g, the rest are between 1-4g), low carb, are free from the disgusting whey protein aftertaste, and have a lot of flavors, all of which can be found at wal-mart (check 3 different sections: diabetic/medical, adult nutrition, and bodybuilding/protein). I'm just an incredibly fussy eater, so peanut butter flavoring is the best way for me to get stuff down. I do have a few other nutrition/protein bars I also take, but the ones above are the ones I actually enjoy eating.

      It's been 10 long years! Here is my VSG weight loss surgiversary update..

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
