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!

Unsweetened almond, rice, cashew milk etc. also try unflavored powder with diet juices like Cranberry Spray Mango etc. lots of great recipes out there if you google too!! Add spices or extracts/ sugar free syrups etc!!

        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
