Decent tasting Protein shake mix



Recommended Posts

I prefer MaxProtein from GNC, chocolate is my favorite, tastes like a yoo-hoo to me! But I will warn always drink from a cup with a lid, it smells terrible! lol

A relatively inexpensive alternative to the traditional Protein Shakes is something that has worked for me for a few months.

I buy the no-sugar added carnation instant breakfasts in vanilla. I use 1 % milk and a scoop of unflavored Protein Powder by fusion. I find that the Fusion does not taste like anything at all. I then add either a splash of vanilla extract or some pumpkin pie spice to the mix, along with ice and shake vigorously. Ends up being about 35 grams of protein... Good luck!!

I bought a Magic Bullet blender. Love that thing. I freeze skim soy milk in ice cube trays. I add vanilla whey powder, a few frozen milk cubes and natural Peanut Butter. Very good. I also use Syntax nectar powder with fruit for smoothies.< /p>

Has anyone heard of designer whey? A friend of mine who had Lap band a few years ago said this tasted great...but wasn't sure if it was still a choice among bansters...any comments???

I have used the designer whey Protein before, and the only thing it was good for was putting fruit smoothies. Otherwise I thought it was terrible!!

I agree with Old School on the Premier Protein Pre-made shakes from costco. I have one every morning as it is tough for me to eat in the morning. I grab it as I walk out the door and drink it in the car on the way to work. It keeps me going until lunchtime and gives me 1/2 the Protein I need (minimally) for the day.

I also have powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury.. its "ok" to me, but everyone likes different things. I do think the chicken Soup flavor is a nice option to have rather than cold drinks all the time.

I am curious now about this chocolate Peanut Butter from Bariatric Eating though... might have to try it!

The only problem is they aren't nearly as filling as the whey Protein powder that I can get at Walmart.< /div>

I just picked up that jug of Protein Powder (the chocolate kind with 52 g of Protein. How is it?

I'm a huge fan of the Champion whey Protein Stack. They have tons of flavors my favorite is the Cookies and cream and the tropial sunsrise...each scoop is 26g of Protein

You can order samples of them at www.vitalady.com the samples are about $2 each so that's not too bad.

Does anyone also eat Protein Bars? I've been looking for a good one. I've orders a box of the pure Protein One to see if they are any good.

I had my surgery four years ago, and one of the toughest things is to find a liquid something to have post surgery and post fills days. You need to find something that tastes good, and is packed with nutrition. Also, good to find something that is all natural, not full of all that chemical stuff you see in some of the widely marketed stuff. I recently found a shake mix that is all of the above, and I wish I would have had it years ago. It is called Cinch. Comes in vanilla, choc. and strawberry. Very filling too. Send me a message and I can give you a link to read more about it. :scared2:

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
