Costco shake prices?



Recommended Posts

We had Sams and costco but when it came time to renew, we kept Sams because they offer a military discount on their membership. They are both the same distance for us. I just got a Costco membership because I did the numbers and with the shakes alone, it will pay for itself in three months, with the price difference. I will pay for Costco and my husband will keep Sams. Sams Club has free shipping on orders of 99.00 or more.

I buy the vanilla, and add frozen bananas, strawberries, or pineapple....... Blends to a thick shake consistency in my Ninja blender. Sometimes, I add a scoop of chocolate Protein powder to the vanilla, PB2, and ice...... that one gives me over 60 grams of Protein in one shake.

Sounds lovely.

But I believe your body will not absorb more than 40-45 grams of protein in one portion.

Just thought I'd let you know as protein is expensive.

costco does offer shipping on their site, and they have a lot more for sale online compared to inside the store. Right now they are honoring the coupon online, as well, so a 2pk of shakes is $39.99 + $6.99 shipping. Not sure how that compares to Amazon. A lot of their prices include shipping, too.

*I* personally think a costco membership is worth it's weight in GOLD. My kids have some food allergies (and so do I) and they have tons of allergy friendly, organic and natural products.

Also, the guy who delivers from my Costco is seriously sexy. AND he puts my order away!

(my husband works there ;))

Costco delivers!!!! What?!!!! Need to get on that train, although, I get in a lot a steps when I go there by parking at the end of the parking lot. But they don't carry the strawberry and cream flavor in the store. :(

I saw my NUT last week and have been drinking the Premier Protein drinks. I love them so! But she told me they are not the best Protein shake around because they are not 100% whey Protein. She said that because of the inferior sources of protein you are probably only absorbing 10 grams of protein (as opposed to the 30 grams on the label). That was a huge wakeup call to me! Anyone else hear anything like that from their NUT?

Here's premier's explanation of their product ingredients... http://www.premierprotein.com/deeper-science-on-protein/

I purposely try to mix up my Protein sources, Not just limit to whey Protein. I do milk, egg, soy and sprouted seeds

They came to me recommended by nutritionalist as well as a Med Doc that does non surgical weight loss (ie low carb eating). so, I don't know what to think except I have been using them regularly for 2.5 years and have good evidence my Protein intake is good.

      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.
