Just to get to know each other a little better......

I live in Northern Utah....about 35 miles north of Salt Lake City...

I'm a retired police officer, spent 23 years on the department and retired in January of 2006.....now I work retail for Golden Spike Harley-Davidson.

Just part time, but it's a fun job.

I worked two years as a bail bond agent, but I didn't like that very much....was glad to get the gig at the harley shop where people are happy!

Lisa here, and I am 33 years old, and I am in Columbus, Ohio. I am an Onsite Recruiter with Manpower, and I recruit exclusively for Abbott Nutrition. Abbott produces Similac, Isomil, Pediasure, Ensure, and a myriad of other biopharmaceutical products. Coolest thing is that Abbott also produces the EAS line, so I get all of the dreaded Protein powders and drinks way cheap at the company store. Yay, those things can get freaking expensive!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
