I hate protein shakes :-(



Recommended Posts

I agree Unjury is the best I have tried so far. I have actually tried many. Jay Robb vanilla is pretty good too.

Yes so far it's the one I will get. Liked it better than anything else. Will have to try a couple others too.

I really enjoy the Atkins cafe caramel Protein shake. I also enjoy the nectar that is the roadside lemonaide flavor. I mix a scoop with 16 oz of Water and a packet of crystal light. It tastes really good!

I was the same way about Protein shakes, but now I love my atkins once so much, I have one a day...

Good luck with everything!

Doesn't the Atkins shakes have a lot of sugar?

Have u tried doing half a scoop of Protein and half a scoop of slim fast shake mix?

Is there a lot of sugar in the slim fast?

I don't think the Adkins ones have a lot of sugar. Not sure about slim fast. I tried a sample pack from Unjury online it is really good. Either no sugar or very little and I think 21grams of protien and 100 calories per scoop.

So far I've tried the vanilla Designer whey powder (icky by itself and not very sweet. I ended up adding some sugar free vanilla Syrup and it was better). I like the vanilla EAS powder better. I didn't need to add anything to it. I use Silk light soy milk and a few ice cubes in the blender.

Strangely, I really liked the premixed Designer Whey which is why I bought the powder. Atkins premade shakes taste okay: I've tried the strawberry and caramel cafe, both so-so, and the vanilla is my favorite. They only have 2 carbs and 15g Protein.< /p>

In half a scoop there is 5 grams. But even a quarter of a scoop is noticeable to me. I add it till it tastes a little better but never more than a half.

K...I'm going to let you girls in on a little secret! I'm 10 days post-op and had 60g of Protein yesterday. Syntrax makes amazing, heavenly protein power in a double stuffed cookie flavor among others. It tastes like a really unhealthy fattening oreo milkshake!! It's amazing and has been a savior!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
