topazz 4 Posted January 5, 2011 My nutritionist also recommended Muscle Milk Light (along with several others). Unfortunately, I can't tolerate it because of my Lactose intolerance (although I did like the taste). I am currently using Isopure powder (vanilla and chocolate are good - I hated the clear fruit flavored ones). Isopure is 25 grams of Protein per scoop and tastes good to me Vicky, MM Light is lactose free. Weird that it didn't agree with you! I heard good things about Isopure too. I've only used MM, but was looking into Isopure as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zeniada 9 Posted January 5, 2011 Vicky, MM Light is lactose free. Weird that it didn't agree with you! I heard good things about Isopure too. I've only used MM, but was looking into Isopure as well. I just tried MM light and yes it is lactose free that's why i tried it...Isopure is ok my fav is the strawberries and cream, Cookies and cream was way to sweet and the chocolate was ok...the non flavored one is kinda nasty tho...

Tally23 0 Posted January 9, 2011 I looked for the book online but have not been able to find it. Can you give the author and isbn so that I can try to get it? I love the 2 recipes you posted and I love anything that I can make myself. Thanks! I could not find it online either.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmocakes 0 Posted June 1, 2011 Hi, I also have a problem with MM Light. I know is says Lactose Free, but it bothered my stomach. I'm starting to wonder if I have milk intolerance not just lactose intolerance. I seem to tolarate most cheese but a lot of other dairy products, yogurt, cream cheese really bother me. I use Lactaide milk and it's gotten very pricey. Found it at Sams Club but they only carry 2%. Any ideas on where to get Lactaid Skim milk at a resonable price? I will try the Isopure, and hope it helps. (Thanks Vickyd) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bellaloco 13 Posted June 1, 2011 My two favorites brands are Pure Protein-I love the Cookies and Cream flavored, and EAS (which I get in soy, not whey). Both of them I have been able to find at Target and/or Walmart. I get the powder and mix them myself (because it is tons cheaper) with about 4-6 oz of soy or almond milk and about 6-8 oz water-the thicker texture does not agree with my gag-reflex, which is why I add extra water! I put it in a shaker with ice and keep it super cold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimK813 2 Posted June 2, 2011 I buy Body Fortress Protein powder (chocolate, strawberry, and Vanilla) from Wal Mart. I mix the vanilla with milk or NSA CIB but my favorite is strawberry with Strawberry GV sugar free drink mix. Not thick like a shake, but very berry! Tastes alot like Kellogs Protein Water but MUCH cheaper! Try the vanilla with SF Orange (tastes kinda like a Creamsicle). Good Luck everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Time2BHealthy 1 Posted June 2, 2011 Best recipe I found. My non banded husband even drinks them. I bought Protein powder on Amazon.com. off the top of my head it is syntha-6 brand or something like that. I got vanilla ice cream flavor. 1 cup skim milk 1/2 cup frozen no sugar added berries 1 scoop Protein Powder I mix in my magic bullet and 10 seconds, I have a delicious smootie!

NewStart95987 35 Posted June 2, 2011 I LOVE Hydro whey, I get mine through GNC. I get the chocolate and add a little instant coffee and it tastes just like a mocha. It dissolves VERY well in cold milk or Water and tastes FANTASTIC! I could NOT stomach Isopure and about a dozen others I tried. Even better, if you get it through GNC and don't' like it (I have yet to find anyone who didn't like it) you cant take it back for a full refund. You can't go wrong! It's 30 g Protein, 2 g Carbs and 0 sugar. I have yet to find a drink as good in nutrition and as tastey. Good luck!!! Let me know if you try it http://www.gnc.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3839127 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
