This Might Be My New Favorite Protein Shake



Recommended Posts

For many years I've been drinking premade GNC Lean shakes 25 g Protein in Swiss chocolate flavor. They're my Breakfast every morning. Then I saw a YouTube video of a girl doing WW like I am and she used Fairlife Protein Shakes. I saw that they were slightly smaller bottles but my interest perked up when I saw they had 30 g of protein. Also, GNC Shakes are about $2.48 apiece while the Fairlife shakes are about $1.74 apiece, so I thought I'd give them a try. My go-to flavor is chocolate, so I tried the chocolate first, but it tasted watered down and not as creamy as the GNC shake. Then I tried the vanilla. Heaven! So rich and creamy and a wonderful vanilla taste. This might be my new preferred breakfast.

The salted carmel and strawberry flavor are great as well!

My dad drinks those all the time. (He likes to work out everyday) He likes the chocolate ones more but loves the fairlife brand.

Where do you find the salted caramel? I've never seen it! I've gotten the chocolate at costco, and there's a similar Core Power that I've found in vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry-banana

Thanks! I don't have a Sam's club membership but I can try Target. I just ordered a sampler from Amazon. If I like them I will figure out who has a membership.

Well, I'm glad I ordered just a few... it wasn't my cup of tea. I am getting so sick of Protein drinks! I can't quite get enough protein without them however.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
