What are some good ways to mix protein ...minus milk



Recommended Posts

Good morning,

I am trying to find out ways to mix Protein without milk because milk really doesn't agree with me. I've tried Isopure, but want something different. And I've tried mixing powder with Water ...yuck!

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Is it a lactose issue? I had a similiar problem for the first few months but used lactaid or fair life milk and that worked great.

If not, I would suggest trying Premier Protein ready made shakes, this way you do not have to worry about it. These shakes have 30 grams of Protein, 1 gram of sugar 160 calories. They taste great and are one of the most powerful protein options out there. They are filling and keep you full for a long time.

You can buy them at Sam's and costco in bulk -18 pack

You can also buy a 4 pack at Walmart and some Walgreens stores

chocolate seems to be everyone's favorite but they also have vanilla and strawberry if you want to change it up.

Good luck!

Have you tried almond, soy, or other non daily 'milks'?? I use unsweetened vanilla almond and it has far less calories than mild and tastes great!

I really like the fair life milk- it had 19g of Protein in 8oz (I think, not looking at the bottle) I can make a smaller drink with lots of Protein.

Non-dairy I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk. This is yummy, but no added bonus of extra protein!

I've found Fair Life in Albertsons here in CA. Don't know how nation wide that chain is though.

I love fair life. It's all the milk I drink now. I had regular milk after a few weeks of fair life/soy milk and got really sick.

I'm in Austin. I'll try Walmart. Fair Milk sounds like good stuff.

I love it- I switched my husband and kiddo to the whole milk and get the skim for myself.

I always mix my Protein Powder with crushed ice and tap Water.< /p>

I've had thousands this way. I never mix with anything else.

If you buy the right Protein, it will have the right flavor with water.

I use Unsweetened Almond (sometimes Vanilla) Milk with either Syntrax Vanilla Bean Torte or chocolate Truffle in a blender with ice and a pump (or two) of my favorite Torani SF flavor. It turns into a thin milkshake with Protein. Yum!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
