Does anyone actually like their protein drink?



Recommended Posts

I mix the EAS French Vanilla with Decaf coffee in the morning. I also use the snack size premiere Protein. Both shakes are only 100 calories each. I have the French Vanilla everyday.

Chike is insanely good. They have one that tastes just like a creamsicle.

I blend all of their flavors with ice to make it coolatta style and add Torani Syrup to the vanilla flavor to make gingerbread, etc.

No, I hate Protein Shakes and will not drink them. I stopped drinking them as soon as I hit my 2 weeks post op. I expressed to my doctor that I would rather get my Protein from food sources and not a Protein Shake. I'm doing well getting my protein in daily. I find high protein seafood to eat like; shrimp, scallops and fish. I do eat a lot of chicken too.

Me too. I hate them. They're gross...have yet to try one I like enough to get down. I find many have a slimy "under-texture" and leave a bad taste.

I still drink them a few times a week but try to get my protein from real food.

unjury strawberry, vanilla and chocolate. I just just tried Body Logic with Stevia that my PA at surgeon's office suggested, and liked the chocolate.

When I feel ambitious or just can't take another RTD chocolate shake, I go to Dashing Dish's website. Just made a pumpkin pie Protein Shake for the hubby and I: cottage cheese, one scoop Protein Powder, canned pumpkin, spices, sweetener of choice and ice/milk blended to desired consistency. Thick, creamy and a great flavor change up. She also has an amazing "Shamrock" shake or mint Protein shake that includes a handful of spinach. These take me 5 minutes to make and then rinse the blender out even so I too am lazy so this effort only happens on the weekends.

honestly I know ive mentioned ive done tons of Protein drink video taste tests on my blog, but the Syntrax Nectar and matrix products are hands down the best. I wont use GENEPRO because of the obvious lie they use. they say you get 30 grams of protein in 15 grams of product which as you canguess is not possible. Ive called them out on this several times and they just delete my posts so I know they are not being truthful.

I like a few Isopure ready made drinks, the black tea being the best period. alpine punch and prange are decent . my favorites now are the Syntrax nectar vanilla torte, the syntrax nectar Cappuccino and the syntrax nectar fuzzy navel, I found using 1% milk with shakes like vanilla cappuccino etc. but Water with flavors like cherry, fuzzy navel etc.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
