wondering1 103 Posted June 8, 2011 Hi all. So I bought a huge container of this Protein Shake from GNC and I have no idea what to do with it. I tried stirring it in my coffee since it was French vanilla but that was really awful. Is anyone out there using this product? and how? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msdw59 11 Posted June 9, 2011 Hi all. So I bought a huge container of this Protein shake from GNC and I have no idea what to do with it. I tried stirring it in my coffee since it was French Vanilla but that was really awful. Is anyone out there using this product? and how? The smell of all the Protein drinks is off putting. I found a ripe banana thrown in, not only naturally sweetens the drink, it add thickness. I can't stand any of the vanilla drinks. I honestly can't stomach any of these Protein powder drinks unless they are blended for at least 3 to 4 minutes to eliminate graininess and then into the refrigerator for overnight cooling.

lunarose 97 Posted June 9, 2011 Hi, I wasn't crazy about GNC's Protein it was the only one that made me nauseous it helped to mix in Nesquik Sugar Free Chocolate or some sugar free pudding I also used it to make sugar free pudding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenEyedMamma 5 Posted June 9, 2011 I drank it with non-fat milk when I was on my pre-op liquid diet and for the first week post-op. When I graduated to mushies, I mixed it into my oatmeal, greek yogurt, and sugar-free pudding. After my first month post-op I stopped using it because I was getting enough Protein from food.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kellyw74 258 Posted June 10, 2011 I totally felt the same way about Protein Drinks. They made me GAG so bad and the smell and taste were just NASTY. Until I met Pure Protein Vanilla mix it is THA BOMB. No protein smell or taste. It is great. I mix 1/2 Water and milk and it is not too thick. Sometimes, I add a banana or Peanut Butter and it is great. They also have RTD ones. The strawberry Cream is SOOOOOO good and so is the peanut butter! You should try it. Vitamin Shoppe has the RTD ones and Target nad Walmart sell the powder! Kelly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
