Ok so I was struggling. I mean really struggling with getting my Protein because i cannot do the shakes. Make me vomit every time. So I ordered gene pro unflavored and tried adding it to drinks, foods etc and still couldn't do it. I could still taste it. So today I had a genius idea. (Not really genius but it is to me ) I mixed the gene pro with one small shot of a beverage of my liking. I used horchata (not the alcohol horchata). Mixed my gene pro in, held my nose and got my 30 grams of protein with one throw back of the shot glass! Didn't even taste it. So I will do that twice more today and be beyond my protein requirements.

That's great! I found a Protein Water I enjoy. It's from Target. Today I had that and a Starbucks Protein shake with 2 extra scoops of protein, a Protein Bar and then my regular lunch and I'm over 100 grams!

I also bought protein shots to put in my water so I mixed those in with crystal light and made protein Popsicles, worked really well for me.

I like it in noosa yogurt. I had a full scoop in the pumpkin flavor (42g - i did add an addition tbs of pumpkin i had on hand) yesterday and half in the key lime today (27g).

I think half a scoop in yogurt is a good goal. With a full scoop i can taste the protein a bit. No horrible but not just yogurt.

That's what o do with my Genepro- because that " unflavored" sure tastes disgusting to me.
