breakfast drink suggestions?????

Betsyjane · May 2, 2007

I'm too restricted to eat food in the morning. I also can't do Protein Shakes because sugar and artificial sweeteners make me binge on sweets. Any suggestions for a morning drink with Protein?

I would suggest you consider buying Protein shakes sweetened with Stevia if you want the convenience of just pouring a scoop of Protein in your mixer with Water or milk. You can do a google or yahoo search for Protein Drink stevia Stevia is a plant leaf extract with no known side effects and it is not processed by the body like sucralose (Splenda). Amazon.com has quite a few flavors and sizes available in their Protein Drink with stevia. I hope these help. I'm sure someone here who had experienced this can suggest a more natural recipe perhaps with the unflavored protein powders.

This was an Amazon.com search for "Vitalabs Ultra whey 24" which are protein powders sweetened with Stevia

I know what you mean about the weight loss shakes making you binge on sweets. But I found one at my local Vitamin store that doesn't effect me this way. It's called Designer whey Protein, in choc, vanilla. It's a powder, one scoop in a blender, I add ice, milk, banana or frozen strawberries. It takes care of my hunger till lunch and in the afternoon if I have a sweet tooth it satisfies me.
