Jessibird 32 Posted January 16, 2017 Who has had the muscle milk brand of Protein powder? I want to order it bc it has 50g of Protein and its reasonably priced. I was going to get chocolate flavor. Any powdered protein advice? Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrsSugarbabe 727 Posted January 16, 2017 My suggestion (and that of my dietitian) would be to make sure that whatever brand you are buying is a whey Protein ISOLATE and NOT A CONCENTRATE. With whey Protein isolate you get a lot fewer carbs in the product. Whey protein CONCENTRATES tend to have a lot more carbs. The Protein Powder of my choice is @@unjury which is ordered via the Unjury website. The cost works out to be about $1.25 per serving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

katyb2k 6 Posted January 16, 2017 You might want to to check if the 50g is for 1 scoop or 2 scoops. Also, for me, the pre-mixed chocolate muscle milk is absolutely disgusting. Not sure if the powder tastes the same or not, but it sure might. Sent from my SM-T217S using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,220 Posted January 16, 2017 if it's available in sample packs, get a couple of those for now. That way you'll be sure you like it before you spend a lot of money on tub of it that you may end up not liking. That being said, a lot of people do like Muscle Milk, but everyone's tastes are so different that you can't really go by that. A lot of people love Premier Protein, too, and I really dislike it.

I used 1 scoop for 8 oz. and it wasnt horrible, but i still prefer the Premier Protein shakes premade.

Sent from my SM-J700T using the BariatricPal App You can get 50 grams from any powder, Muscle milk is calling this out because they recommend a double dose of many others. But Muscle Milk also has a lot of added fillers, fat and sugar, why I stay clear of their brand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ohboyx3 13 Posted January 16, 2017 My literature says that you can only utilize 30 gms of Protein at a time. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Julie norton 2,850 Posted January 16, 2017 Please try flavors before investing. Some sit well with tasters. Some don't. And. Tastes can change Good luck Premier Protein seems to go through me these days. Unknown why. Used it for years I do like BariatricPal flavors They sit better with my stomach these days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Marusek 5,244 Posted January 16, 2017 I used Muscle Milk Light (Vanilla Creme) Protein powder. It gave me 25 grams of Protein per shake. I found that I could improve the taste dramatically by blending in a half a banana into the shake. Normally I like chocolate but post surgery, my taste buds changed a lot. The powder is lactose free. After surgery I became lactose intolerant and this prevented me from drinking milk or blending in milk into my Protein Shake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShelliW 10 Posted January 16, 2017 I bought the muscle vanilla milk powder at costco and have some of the TRD. They taste OK but leave strange taste in my mouth for the rest of the day. I like the premier, Inspire and pure Protein better. HW 280 SW 257 CW 239 sleeve surgery 12/12/16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
