DAY 5 POST OP: MADE MY OWN PROTEIN SHAKE



Recommended Posts

After trying all these different Protein Shakes, I really couldn't find anything that I really liked. So, I made my own. Now as far as how much Protein it has I have no idea, but, it's really good and I can get it down quiet easily.

I used 8 oz almond milk, 2 scoops chocolate Protein Powder and 1 T Peanut Butter. I found it to be a little thick for 5 days out, so, I thinned it with Water. But, its so good.

Good for you! I make my own as well & I think they're way better than the premade ones. You should be able to add up the Protein amounts from the labels & get your total easily. Also, you might want to check out PB2...it's powdered Peanut Butter & it's delicious in shakes. It has 85% less fat than regular peanut butter, but all the protein.

I use a Cocktail shaker with ice and shake my Protein Shakes in it, it is fast easy and makes it very cold! I drink it right from the stainless steel shaker. Easy fast and stays cold a long time! Also travels nice in the car :)

When I was still relying on my Protein Shakes, I made my own as well. One of my faves was almond milk, skim milk, one or two scoops of unflavored Unjury Protein powder, a little bit of Torani chocolate Syrup (no fat/no sugar), and lots of ice. It tasted like an almond joy. I would also do almond milk, skim milk, a drop of Peanut Butter, and about 1/4 of a small banana. It was the easiest way for me to get in my protein. They were so good my daughter even liked them! I'm glad you found something you like as well!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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...

        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.
