3283 8 Posted January 3, 2016 I'm in the UK and through this site, thanks to a post here, found a great supplier of pure whey Protein isolate which is very high in protein and very low in fat. I make my own shakes by using frozen fruits, frozen smoothie fruits, some fruit juice or whatever else takes my fancy. I make up a load in my Blendtec and keep it in the fridge. It's great for when I don't know what to eat or am too lazy to search the fridge!!!! I normally grab a glass for Breakfast before dog walking as I leave it to the last minute before climbing out of bed so don't have time for any other kind of breakfast. I found my original blends too sweet as the whey protein has got a slightly sweet taste, so I just buy catering size bottles of lemon juice and lime juice and shove in a good squirt of that. A dollop of fat free Greek yoghurt into the mix is great too. By making your own smoothies it means that you aren't having synthetic additives. They keep for ages in the fridge too. I used Pharma PhD whey which is 36g per scoop and optimum nutrition which is 24g I opted for the second as it has hardly any sugar in. I will look into to trying it it with juice all though fruit juice also seems to be something I can't handle as well, eventually something has to give right! Thanks guys will look into everyone's suggestions and have a chat with my dietician and doctor, xxx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
