Hey guys the reason for my post is to get some ideas on what Protein Shakes you guys are using. I am drinking premier and have had muscle milk ones. But I'm getting tired of them I'm open to home made ones if you guys have any. Also any new ones that we can have that's low on sugar and good on Protein. Please help and thanks

I'm using Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard whey. So far the double chocolate has served me well. One thing I've found is adding a little softened PB mixes and creates a Reeses PB cup-like taste.

Another thing you can try is adding Protein powder to various foods. I sprinkle some powder on my vanilla Greek yogurt and it mixes to make a pudding consistency. Tastes pretty darn good too.

I really like Syntrax Protein Shakes. They come in some great flavors like fuzzy navel. They have 23g of Protein per scoop, 100cal, 0 carbs, 0 sugar. They don't have that "protein" taste. Do you know what I mean? The only downside is they don't come in ready to go shakes. You have to mix them yourself, but worth it. YUMMIE!!

Forgot. Optimum Nutrition is 110-120 calories per scoop with 24g Protein and only 1g sugar.

Also if you're allowed coffee or Decaf, adding some instant crystals to vanilla or chocolate shakes is pretty yummy!

I love the Protein Powder that Quest makes. My favorites are Salted Caramel and Cookies and Creme. I blend mine in a nutribullet with sugarfree almond milk and ice. It is better than a milkshake!

I live for the Syntrax shakes. Can't tolerate the shakes mixed with milk so these are perfect for me. My trick? Add a sleeve of Crystal Light Orange or Mango Peach to the Water before you mix it and add ice. It's heaven in a cup. Also, the Iced Tea with Lemon is wonderful too- I add crystal light lemonade to that one!!!!

Torani syrups has a bunch of sugar free ones. I added some sf brown sugar cinnamon to a vanilla Protein Shake and it was really yummy. I order online from their website.

Cost Plus World Market has the entire SF Torani Syrup line- well priced too. Love the SF raspberry and coconut!!! They even have chocolate! Can add these to your Water as well!!!

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
