I'm bummed: protein powder



Recommended Posts

I ordered the sample pack of Protein Shake mixes for Optimum Nutrition from Netrition and tried them all to figure out which one I'd like to have on hand for when I can't get in all of my Protein from food. Well... I have one I really wanted to order and they don't have that one flavor for individual purchase! Now I have to try to find it somewhere and hope it's the same one.... sorry, just had to vent a little.

What are some other online shopping cites for ordering Protein powder? I'm looking for the Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% whey in Extreme Milk chocolate... Any ideas? I'm so new to this online shopping thing for supplements and I'd appreciate any help you may have.

Awesome, someone else who likes the Optimum Nutrition! My husband has always ordered this stuff for himself, and when I decided to get the band I started trying all his flavors (he has several). Currently, I'm on this kick where I mix half a scoop of the vanilla Ice Cream flavor with half a scoop of the Rocky Road flavor (my husband says Rocky Road is the best chocolate flavor they have!). I mix those two flavors with 8-10oz of 2% milk, add about 3 ice cubes, and blend it in the Bullet for a few seconds. :Dancing_wub:

You should definitely invest in the Rocky Road if you like chocolate Protein shakes. :Dancing_sorry:

I ordered my Protein powder from www.unjury.com. I read about it here on lapbandtalk.com. It is really not too bad. It is a lot smoother in texture than the stuff I bought from GNC. They even send you recipes with your order. Hope this helps.

I ordered the individuals that powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury had for sale. I got one of each flavor, and personally, I didn't enjoy them half as much as the Optimum Nutrition flavors I've tried.

Jmegirl, where do you guys get your Optimum Nutrition powder? I tried the Rocky Road and it was a little too sweet for me. The Extreme Milk Choc reminds me of a frosty from Wendys.

We order from them because they have really great prices. They've also got all sorts of free stuff they give away when you order a certain dollar amount - like a free t-shirt with $100 purchase. Plus, the company is based about 3hrs away from us, so even their cheapest ground shipping gets here in 2 days. :cool:

I ordered a sample bag of Protein drinks from www.bariatriceating.com - my favorite is the ready-to-drink "Oh Yeah" in vanilla cream - even my teenage daughters love it! Good Luck!

      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!!

      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
