Have a cup of coffee and enjoy it! Straws are the only way i can drink slowly. When i try to drink out of a cup, i always drink too much and it hurts. Straws help me measure each sip. I don't even think about it anymore.

In time, try a couple fries. I bet you will think they are nasty. All i can taste is grease and they leave a funky film on my tongue.

Alcohol...sure, but be careful. I get tipsy on just a few sips.

You will find you can eat normal...just smaller amounts. Your probably just in your freak out, "this crap sucks" phase. It gets soooo much better!!!

try a small cup of coffee and add a vanilla Protein shake.It is soo good. I get my caffine and my Protein and I don't need sweetener because the shake makes it sweet. I swear I love it!

Does that kinda make it taste like coffee with Creamer and sugar? How strong is the vanilla taste over the coffee taste?

I do this all the time! But I use instant coffee powder (Bru - the most popular brand in India). I just add 1 tsp coffee powder to my vanilla Protein Powder and blend it with cold milk or milk + ice cubes. I dont like the skimmed milk or soy milk so I just use regular milk (3%). I love that cold coffee shake!! :)

The only way that I can get my Protein Shake in is by adding either coffee or reduced-fat PB. I like both variations.

The vanilla taste isnt strong at all. It tastes like coffee with creamer.

I assume they use a blender...but I'll tell you how I do it with just a spoon...google "powdered peanut butter". Heaven.

I love it too Jazzmin...the protein & coffee mix is really good. I do the same thing except I use iced Decaf coffee. The caffeine was giving me heartburn.

You're right, I use a blender. I use the JIF PB and blend it with cold milk or milk+ice cubes and Protein powder. I blend it twice to get a smooth latte.

I haven't tried powdered PB. Need to check if it is available in India. Thanks for the tip! :)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
