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.

      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.

      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! 😞
