Yummy Protein DRINK! Not shake.



Recommended Posts

Hi. I stopped using Protein Shakes because my husband works third shift and sleeps till 4:00pm and I didn't want to wake him by making shakes in my Magic Bullet. I used to take Protein Shots (the liquid in tube) but stopped. I didn't have a clue what to do, until I found this Protein Drink on pinterest. And I LOVE it!

I'm a Decaf coffee drinker, hot and/or iced. So, I found that mixing a cup of cold coffee, Creamer, Equal and a scoop of vanilla Protein powder and shake real hard, makes a great, refreshing glass of iced vanilla coffee! BAM! I found something pleasing to drink (3 times a day) Also, since it's freakin HOT outside, my ice melts real quick so I poured decaf into an ice tray to make coffee ice cubes so when it melts, it just adds to the flavor.

Give it a try if you like iced coffee. VANILLA iced coffee! :D

Here's to never having to dirty a blender or blender cup again. I simply started using premier Protein ready made shakes and I am so happy I did. I actually sold my ninja at my estate sale when I moved.

I hate blending Protein Shakes.......the grit and the smell. YUCK!

I gave my Magic Bullet to Goodwill, I couldn't stand the sight of it. I use Inspire Caramel Latte whey Protein. I mix with cold Decaf coffee and 1% milk no blender necessary. It's my daily special coffee drink that I have every morning.

What is the Protein shots that you mentioned?

New Whey liquid Protein, 42gms a tube. Expensive. Amazon, $30.00 for a box of 12. I read that they were not an effective Protein supplement. Plus, your body can only process 30gms at a time.

There are many different types of Protein. Many are not effective and a waste of money. Protein drinks should be made with whey isolate for the body to properly absorb. It is unfortunate so many nut are not letting people know. There are not a ton on the market but you can order on Amazon/. Matrix makes one and Bariatric Advantage..

I do something similar.... I put a Starbucks via packet (or two) a scoop of vanilla Protein Powder and Water and ice in a shaker and bam!

So, I'm new at this and plan to be sleeved sometime in October, I have 2 more counseling visits. Since I have met my weight goal, I need to keep it off for the next 2 months or risk my insurance possibly denying me. I was told to start doing Protein bars and shakes to help. What are the differences in the powders, ready drinks, and bars?What are the best ones at a decent price? Is too much Protein bad for you? Any websites with good advise, recipes? Any advice would help.

Thanks

Dan

Hi. I start my 2nd week post op today. I want some food but I won't try. How far after surgery did you all start working out? I can do walking for about 15 minutes so far. Other than walking, what else did you do and how much walking a day?

ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrates (eat undiluted, or mix in Water...no blender), Syntrax nectar (mix with spoon or shaker cup...no blender), ProtiDiet Soups (mix with spoon...no blender), premier Protein (screw top...no blender), blend a shake the night before and put in the refrigerator, etc.

There are lots of options if you don't want to use a blender in the morning.

      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.
