I use Worldwide Protein shakes. They are available at Trader Joe (chocolate and vanilla only, 21g Protein $1.69 each, 35g $2.29), The Vitamin Shoppe (35 g only in all flavors--Vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, banana Cream, Cookies n' Cream--$2.79 each, $27.99 for a 12 pack--available online also), and GNC (35g only in vanilla and Chocolate $2.99 each--other flavors available online). I drink one every weekday in the morning, and sometimes on the weekend too. Sometimes I make a smoothie instead.

They have about 4 carbs, 160-170 calories, only 1g sugar, 1g Fiber, and 1g fat.

I use the Slimfast, low carb, in chocolate. I like them because they're easy, really good chilled and I can drink one on my way home from work to hold me over until dinner time. Every once in a while I through in a South Beach Protein Bar instead of a shake.< /p>

Any good Protein shake should have at least 15 grams of Protein, should be under 200 calories per 12 ounces, and should have less than 20 grams of carbs. It should also have 25% of the daily recommended amount in:

Vitamin A

Calcium

Vitamin D

Vitamin K

Vitamin B6, Vitamin C

Iron

Vitamin E

I get my Protein shakes from costco. They have 30 grams of protein, they are 160 calories and have 5 grams of carbs along with all the major nutrients. They are also less expensive than going to the grocery store or GNC. (They cost $28 for a pack of 24) They also taste great. I have done a lot of research about this and have talked to Nutritionists about this.

Your body needs to consume at least 60 grams of protein, about 80 grams of carbs and about 1200 calories a day to survive. If you work out, you need more. Consider than when buying your Protein Shakes. Good luck and read the label!

Right now I am into the Atkins dark chocolate with two tablespoons of Peanut Butter blended into it.

I prefer the Atkins Advantage shakes. I buy them online, so i get the Mocha Latte and Caramel ones, and they also have a bit of coffee in them.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
