GNC Protein



Recommended Posts

Has anyone tried any of the Protein mixes that GNC has? I ordered some protein Unjury, and some other liquid and I have heard nothing but how bad it is, and I am afraid to open it and try it. I am thinking about sending it back if I can find another protein that I can buy locally that is good. Any suggestions?

The ONLY Protein Powder I use is nectar & it is fabulous! I get it at The Vitamin Shoppe or you can order from Bodybuilding.com & it comes in many fruity flavors. I have bought many others just to give them away & they aren't cheap so if you don't like Nectar you probably won't like anything. I've tried Strawberry-Kiwi & Artic Sky(fruit blend) & next I want to try the Lemonade. Oh & it has only 90 cal, 0 fat, 0 carbs, 0 sugar & 23 grams protein!

I bought the GNC ON (optimum nutrition) Gold, in "delicious strawberry" and "chocolate malt" flavors. I find the chocolate very good and the strawberry good. I mix them in the blender with Water and a little crushed ice, to avoid the calories and carbs in milk.

I also bought three bottles of Isopure, the orange/pineapple/banana, lemon iced tea, and apple melon. I thought the orange was lousy but drinkable, the iced tea absolutely awful, and I haven't tried the apple yet.

I tried the nectar and didnt like it at all. My dr. wants me to mix 30gms of protien with only 4oz. of Water and nectar might tast good if you mixed it by the directions. I use syntha-6 chocolate, Cookies and cream, vanilla and i like them ok. I get them at suppersuplements.

I use GNC's Pro Performance 100% whey -- Banana Cream is great, Vanilla is good too. They now offer Unflavored but I haven't opened it yet. I tried Mixed berry and I quickly took it back to the store, yuk! My partner uses the chocolate flavors by ON Gold Standard 100% whey, also at GNC. Those are really good too.

Banana Cream in the blender with either Soy or Skim milk and a couple of ice cubes is the best I've found. I put my powdered Vitamins and liquid Calcium right in the blender with it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
