Rockin the protein shake



Recommended Posts

I try and try to find ways to make the Protein shakes taste better. I have decided that I like the EAS brand in Choc and Body Fortress in vanilla (like the price on this one) There is about 20-23 Protein in one scoop.

I put about 12 oz of ice, 8 oz of Water , 1 scoop Protein powder and then....add 1/4 pkg of sugar free pudding mix (instant) whatever flavor....all kinds go with vanilla. Put in blender and make a shake. Play around with it some...you may need a tiny bit more P. powder, or a bit more pudding......I sometimes put a little splenda. With the Chocoate, put a little cocoa powder (only 10 cal in tbsp). This helps the shakes so much. Very good!!!!

Hope this helps some.:cursing:

Love the pudding idea. I got it from Betsy B. I gave up w/ using Water and use the unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk. It is so worth the calories and makes the shake truly like a shake.

Mmm! Such a good idea.

My shakes taste like absolute garbage, so I put a spoonful of yogurt and some frozen berries in there and blend. This is a great idea too!

I make a smoothie every morning and have found (thru trial and error) that the ones I like the best are made with the Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60 from GNC. I use the chocolate and the vanilla and mix with fat free milk, banana, and other fruits like peaches, mango, strawberries, etc. I also use Greek yogurt and sometimes I add almond butter. You can use Peanut Butter, but I prefer the almond butter. Add ice and blend well. It makes a lot and is very filling and gives me about 30+ grams of Protein depending on what I add. I use 8 oz. of milk.

I might try some of these other ideas too. Thanks for sharing.

I keep frozen fruit in the freezer and have several flavors of Protein Shakes. I also add some splenda for sweetness. Makes a great Breakfast and travels well!

I accidentally stumbled over a Protein Drink on a website called Chike. It's really good and for a very small investment, I think it was 6.95 which pays for the shipping, you get 5 samples of product. I've order 3 tubs of it, Vanilla, chocolate and banana and the Protein count is 28. Very tasty, no aftertaste that i've experienced with others.

I hate chike! It's what my surgeon recommends so I have half a thing of vanilla and a thing of orange creame with less than five servings out of it. You should totally take it off my kitchen counter! Lol pm me

If you like coffee (I LOVE the stuff!), I've found an espresso Protein Powder called Click. I enjoy it when I'm craving a coffeehouse drink, it gives me a little extra Protein (14 grams), it's only 120 calories for a 14 oz. serving, and it tastes great!!! I have it hot or cold (mostly cold), and they have mocha and vanilla flavors, as well as Decaf. When I'm really watching my calories, I mix it with Water, but as a Meal Replacement, I use skim milk, ice, and sometimes a shot of SF French vanilla or caramel Syrup for a flavor boost. So far, my favorite Protein Shake, but looking for others that don't have the "protein taste".

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
