Tupperware tumblers are awesome



Recommended Posts

I just wanted to post a tip for Protein shakes and other portable beverages. The tupperware tumblers with flat lids (not sippy lids or sports lids or ones with straws) are absolutely great. You can put your Protein powder in and throw it in your bag. When you want to make up your shake, fill it 2/3 with Water and shake the hell out of it. It won't leak. Then after you drink it (out of the tumbler itself), put the lid back on and toss in your bag. Again, won't leak. I have found these to be great. I get the 11 ounce ones. I have four so one or two are always clean and dry and ready to go. You can get them cheap on eBay but I just got the "rainbow" set. It was $27 for the set of 4. My shake is only 8 ounces made up so these are plenty big, though you can get 16 ounces too.

The normal Protein shakers are ok but they are big and in my opinion not very portable. I also find that they can leak from the pour spout and the ones where the lid just snaps on can make a mess if you snap it off wrong and fling your shake everywhere.

If your protein doesn't mix easily you could get one of those whisk balls and throw it in with your dry powder. I don't have this problem. I also use one to mix a medicine I have to take with juice.

I am always on the lookout for a better transport method. I don't leave home without a dry mix of Protein shake in a tumbler of some kind. This is great. Thanks so much!

I use these too, I have a 11oz fruit set and two seasonal 16oz. I do preamble shakes but always have this filled with Water for me to drink! You are right tho no leaks and the "spout" type thing you drink from is small, I hate big openings like Nalgene bottle, I dribble lolol!

Mine doesn't have an opening in the lid. It's just flat and you take off the lid and you have a plain cup. But the lid seals very well and doesn't leak which to me is the best part.

I have a couple of the blender bottles as well. I like them as I seem to want to shake my drink again after a few minutes of it sitting on the desk while sipping away at it! The blender ball really helps with mixing up the Protein powder very well!

Me too! I carry a tall and a short one (pre-filled with powder) on every flight. On the road I use the short one for my pre-workout Breakfast and the tall for my lunch or afternoon snack (depending on what my work day/customer interaction is like).

        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
