KimK813 2 Posted October 10, 2010 I'v tried several Protein shakes including the Isopure and they are disgusting. The Special K ones are the only ones I've found that I don't have to choke down. I don't think Special K shakes are "cheap imitations", they are only 190 calories and yes only 10gm Protein but shouldn't be your daily staple food anyway. Bottom line you have to find the one that is right for you. No one can or should drink things they don't like. The Special Protein Drink mix (just add to bottle of water) is only 30 calories and gives you 5gr of protein. I have to drink Water anyway. I like the pink lemonade flavor, personally.

amybethy 0 Posted October 10, 2010 Where do you get PB2 and I like the carnation Breakfast sugar free with 1% milk I know its not a super big amount of protien per packet but it tasts like chocolate milk. Not to thick and weird texturey I tryed a sample I got in the mail don't remember the brand and it was like sludgey consistancy yuck. Any one know other brands that come out like the carnation breakfasts do?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any one know other brands that come out like the carnation breakfasts do?? You can order PB2 online from the Bell Plantation website. I just finished another amazing shake flavored with PB2. YUM. As many people here will tell you, there are PLENTY more great tasting Protein shakes other than the Carnation that are higher in Protein. Also, I have stopped with regular milk altogether and now I only use Unsweetened vanilla Almond Milk. Its much less in calories than the 1% and it adds great flavor. Depending on the type of shake there are so many different things to add to them to make them taste sexy. And with the Syntha 6 shakes from GNC, I don't even need to add anything if I don't want to.

icequeen813 3 Posted October 10, 2010 Thanks everyone for your input! I do agree that those special K one's are not as hard to get down. I do believe that I was given a packet of that sythac's nectar one when I went to see my dietician, however I think I made it wrong, lol it exploded when I went to shake it up! what can i say I am not the smartest one of the bunch! lol Does anyone know where I can get some samples? Oh and NJSizzla, what is PB2 ? you can order Syntrax Nectar online.. I order from DAMUSCLE.com. best price I found Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
honk 780 Posted October 11, 2010 I also use PB2 in Protein shakes. I like the chocolate version better (add it to chocolate shakes). The product is not that expensive but the shipping is high. I ended up buying twice as much as I had planned on because the shipping was only like 3 dollars more for 8 bottles than it had been for 4. I gave a reg and a chocolate to my sister. For ready to drink I second that Premier Brand at Cosco is pretty good high in Protein and low in calories. As for powder I buy it at Vitamin Shoppe which is MUCH better price wise than GNC. In regards to Protein Powder I use Gold Standard Double Chocolate whey and Dymatize Gourmet vanilla.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
