Protein Drinks And Shakes, What Ones Are Good?



Recommended Posts

i had tried Isopure and it would take me forever to drink a half a bottle' date=' i tried nectar the lamonade and it was awful, i couldnt stand the muscle milk or the boost they were both to sweet, i finally just got one that has no flavor and have been making smoothies with it[/quote']

Kasey, I have heard the Atkin's shakes are good...Walmart has them on sale this week.

I was looking online today for Protein drinks and shakes that I will need after surgery. Was wanting some input from everyone on what they have liked best? I found these drinks called Isopure and they look pretty good but haven't heard if they are good or not. Please anyone and everyone what have you liked>?

One if the tastiest! New Rockin’ Refuel Muscle Builder

30 grams of natural, high-quality Protein to help build muscles

Low net carbs

Only 190 calories

Made with real milk

Available at select GNC stores nationwide and online at GNC.co

There is also one called Pure Protein that is tolerable! Chocolate!

I couldn't drink even one of those Isopures!

I've been using Body Fortress - just plain chocolate or vanilla - and been pretty happy with them. I actually really love the chocolate - doesn't have that overly fake too-sweet chocolate-ness that some have, but just enough to make it good!

I don't know if you have a Vitamin Shoppe near you but they have a good selection of sample packs. I was afraid I was going to never find Protein that would taste half decent and the syntax nectar are actually really good. I'm sure you could get them online as well.

I love my Protein Powder. Its just body fortress whey isolate vanilla cream and whey Protein chocolate. I use it with skim milk. But sometimes I will use 12 ounces of milk instead of just 8

I love Body Fortress! I blend with Water & ice though, no milk - my nutritionist doesn't want us to use milk. Even with Water though, it's just like a milkshake!!

Yuck I couldn't do Water in it LOL. But my nut said I can have skim milk or 1% or 2% but I use skim milk with added Vitamin A and d and it tastes like 2%

If do a good search some companies will do samples for free with s&h or you have to buy sample packs. There was a website Vitalady.com I believe thats where I got all my Synthrax nectar Samples. Sample Vitamins and supplements

I agree. Isopure is DISGUSTING.

I like the kind from GNC called lean Protein Shake. It's gnc brand. I love the strawberry best. If you go into Gnc they'll let you sample

I actually sampled them today,but the ones you make don't taste like the premade ones. At least I don't think so anyways. The premade ones are so much better!

It is so amazing they can make diet drinks like diet dr pepper soooo tasty, but they can't do anything with Protein shakes. No matter what - they are sooo gross, even the smell can make you gag! I drink mine in my sleep about 5:30 in the morning so I won't have to remember it!! Lol

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
