* Protein Powder * (Gross)

OMG I tried the Protein powder in with skim milk and with crystal light and I just can NOT tolerate it at all, I called the nutritionist and he said some people just can't tolerate it, So I am NOT taking it, I however am eating chicken, and egg whites like their is no tomorrow, Anyone else having this problem with the Protein Powder, and If so any other suggestions please..... I wish there was a pill we could take for it instead......

Also does everyone that has the lapband have to do heparin shots for 2 weeks afterwards???? that scares me, I have never given myself shots before..... any advise???

Honestly-that sounds gross!

Try this simple recipe

1 scoop of chocolate flavor Protein powder

1-2 tablespoons of sugar/fat free chocolate pudding mix

1 cup skim milk

Blend in blender and enjoy

How many different flavors did you try? There are like a gazillion on Amazon.com: Online Shopping for Electronics, Apparel, Computers, books, DVDs & more. Don't give up after one try (was it unflavored that you bought??)

The biggest reason to keep on trying is that one day you will have just the right adjustment and you may not be able to get in your daily requirements just from food.

Try samples or maybe just buy 1# containers at a time. I use my belgian chocolate in just Water and I personally think it tastes phenomenal!! :tongue:

try the Isopure Clear from GNC. I love the Icy Orange and the Mango peach. They are completely clear. Nothing gross and textured floating around in there. The other thing I can take is sugar free Carnation chocolate mixed with skim milk and warmed as hot chocolate. Not bad either.

I agree the only ones i will drink is the Isopure. I have been buying it pre mixed in the bottles and you get 40 grams of Protein in one bottle. I like the apple/watermelon but i have not tasted a bad one. Has anyone tried the powder in the clear kind not the choc/van/straw, i want fruity ones, and if so does it mix well with Water?
