malted milk?

[skinnyjess2013 39]

Anyone ever added malted milk to a Protein Shake? It had 10g of sugar for 3tablespoons. I thought about adding 1 tablespoon to a chocolate shake to kick up the flavor.

I have 2 bottle of it in my pantry. Hate to throw them out. Do they make a sugar-free kind? Hmmmm

Seems to be alot of sugar. I would opt for a sugar free substitute.

I can't do the Protein Powder stuff its too much a d causes dumping I have a sensitivity to Protein higher than 10g at a time. However, I make my own protein but its in a smoothy form. I use almond soy milk it is my favorite and I use low-fat yogurt and I put pecans in mine and it literally tastes like butternut icecream. I get 10g protein per 6oz and I drink these 4 times a day. . .as a snack moreless. I became lactose I tolerant after gb so I had to learn what I could and clouldnt tolerate lactose wise and that is a major pita. Oh and I wanted to add sometimes I will throw some tofu in with my shake and it upps the protein just make sure u blend that puppy up good its gross getting a sip of lumpy smoothie lol.

Oh and wanted to add too I will throw metamucile (sp) in there too and I'm getting s great dose of Fiber that I don't get bc I don't eat breads.

ohhh, I need metimucil to throw in!!! I'm getting like no Fiber. I had a drink of an HMR shake with sugar. I could tell as soon as it hit my stomach that it wasn't going to work for me. So, I wouldn't risk the malted milk. At all. But that's me. I'd throw PB2 or SF FF pudding mix in before that.

Yeah u def will know. I tried muscle milk and Lord thought I was dying.

Today I took 1/2 of a chocolate Atkins shake 7.5 grams Protein 1 Unjury chocolate pack 21 grams protein and 5 ice cubes and made a cold shake. 28.5 grams of protein Next time, I'll add some greek yogurt. I'm going to get this protein requirement down and I'm 21 Fluid ounces in today already. I'm going to meet both requirements today darn it.

I drink the low carb slim fast Protein Shakes. Creamy chocolate. It has 20 grams of Protein and 2 sugars I think. It is fairly tasty. I have been able to get them down pretty good. My problem is what to eat

Is everyone still resting a lot that had surgery this week. I get up and walk and take a shower but I also find myself on my bed resting.

[Nel 189]

Yep. I'm in bed right now. I finally left the house to walk. I'd been just walking in the house. I feel accomplished, but that's about it. I live in this bed right now. I can't imagine the people that wen't back to work in a week. Nu uh.

I want you to know the first 2 weeks i did alot of resting. I am now 10 1/2 weeks out and doing fabulous. Let your body rest, it just went through major surgery. As long as you are getting out of bed you are doing fine. It gets so much better.... Congrats...
