No More Muscle Milk Light Pre-Mixed Shakes...any Suggestions



Recommended Posts

I live on Muscle Milk Light pre-mixed shakes for a good portion of my diet (sometimes 2-3 bottles in a day) and the company has stopped making the original vanilla and also Cafe Latte. You can still get chocolate but not my favorite flavor. I have lost 45 pounds since Oct 15 and feel great (but still want to lose another 50 or so) but am so worried about what I'm going to do since I'm not a fan of the powdered shakes. Does anyone have a suggestion for a premixed brand that I can try? I love the convenience of the bottles...Thanks

I love Muscle Milk light but I recently switched to a GNC brand called Total Lean, Lean shakes. They only have chocolate, Vanilla & strawberry right now. I tried them a few months ago because they were out of the Muscle Milk Light and I liked them so much I haven't switched back. Good luck!

Jay Robb tropical dreamsicle powder is a nice treat. The other drink I did was the Premier nutrition pre-mixed chocolate from costco. I know they have a vanilla too, but I personally thought it was bad.

Eek! Jay Robb stuff has the most horrible aftertaste, at least the ones I have tried. I wish I could stomach them, because it gives me more energy than anything else I have tried. My nutritionist told me that muscle milk lite is not on their diet because there isnt 25 or more grams of protein..... I wish I could remember the ready to drink that I got a sample of and LOVED. How did I let myself forget??! Arrgh

I'm drinking Premier chocolate shakes. Lots of Protein, 30g, but I can't say I look forward to drinking them. But I'm still on my postoperative liquid diet. So I just miss food in general about now.

Premier shakes from costco are yummy1 These are the most affordable ready to drink shakes I have found at about $1.00 each. I also drink the Isopure smoothies, they come in yummy flavors like pomegranate berry and have 32 grams of Protein. I order them from Amazon for $2.88 each.

I am puzzled as to why you are drinking such a high portion of your meals. Are you too tight to eat proper food?

I agree, you shouldn't be only drinking your meals. It is not a good way to live, and likely, if you go back to eating, you will gain weight. Try to eat at lest 1 mel a day. Goodluck, Karen

Sorry to be a downer but my doctor said no liquid meals after you've healed. Otherwise you would'nt have needed the band in the first place

I tried the chocolate and vanilla jay robb and those definitely had an aftertaste that I couldn't stomach, almost like soapy residue. The dreamsicle is the only one that did not have it.

I was also told no liquid meals after mushy food stage unless it is for Breakfast due to a tight band. Solids will make you full longer and faster, so I have been told. But I like EAS shakes.....

Honestly, I am not a big fan of Protein Drinks nor am I a coffe drinker, but recently I had a Starbucks Skinny Vanilla Latte and thought it tasted pretty good and only a little over a 100 calories.Not bad for a morning pick me up:) But in order to get my Protein I decided to make my own concoction at home now with Decaf coffee cooled down, a little skim milk and a scoop of Unjury chocolate Splendor powder. MMMM Good and I get a lot of protein points from it to start my day out.

Go to AllStarHealth.com they should have what your looking for if not just buy a shaker bottle for the powder.< /p>

Everything is seasonably priced, and all shipping, no matter what you have bought will be $5.95.

Take a look,they have a lot to choose from. I know because thats where I shop. You can also check out ebay they have allot

to pick from. But check out the website i gave you first.

Good Luck, Shirley.

I just came from ther and they carry RTD, but you can get over 1 1/2 ls for under $20.00

A lot of different flavors including cake batter.

I still enjoy a shake for lunch.

      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.
