Protein Shake tastes like card board!!



Recommended Posts

I think you have to try a few until you find what is right for you. I have Muscle Milk and like it, but will probably try more in the future.

I bought vanilla flavored Protein powder from GNC and would mix it in the blender with Sunny Morning Crystal Light...it tastes like a creamsicle.

On the go, I'm a big fan of the EAS Myoplex muscle building Protein shake in chocolate fugde. It has 42g of protein. They have a lower calorie version too. Either way...yummy!!!

YES - EAS Carb Control is my Favorite Protein Shake by Far (not vanilla thought) 110 Calories & 17 grams of protein.

I purchased several packets of the Unjury powder to try them, I only tried one and that was the vanilla/plain (that thing was terrible). I tried it in some oatmeal and couldn't even finish the little bowl. I'm glad to see that I can at least try the chocolate and make it like a banana split. I need to get more Protein in anyway I can. Any suggestions for the strawberry unjury?

My fav so far is the Choclate powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury. It's like a wendy's frosty. Sometimes I mix in a few frozen strawberries, a scoop of pineapple, and 1/2 banana and some ice. It's makes the best "Banana Spilt" I have every had. I might have to try the other that was listed here..I need a new flavor.

I am also loving the chocolate unjury... I just mix mine with milk put it in my mixer and throw it in the freezer. Nice for a Protein filled snack.< img src="https://s.bariatricpal.com/uploads/emoticons/default_unsure.png" alt=":unsure:" />

I have problems with whey protein....so I've been on Soy protein...the chocolate soy is ridiculous and should be illegal, it's so good. 1/2 banana, 2 TBSP creamy Peanut Butter (reduced fat pb works too), I have a nice 400 calorie shake, over 20g Protein, that I can only drink HALF of :cool2: I struggle to get the rest in, if I sip it for an hour. That way I know I"m getting something nutritious. I refuse to put my body through 500 calories a day...if I can get to 800 or 1000 that's good stuff.

I mixed the strawberry with skim milk and liked it. Also, if you are past the mushies, you can put the Unjury and milk in the blender and blend it, then add some frozen strawberries and pulse the blender a few times to break up the strawberries.

I did the same with the vanilla Unjury, blending strawberrries or mixed berries or peaches. Put them in frozen and pulse. I think you will like it.

Here's a yummy Protein shake:

8 ounces non-fat milk

2 tbsp Protein Powder

2 tbsp SF Peanut Butter (or LF peanut butter)

2 tbsp honey

1 small or medium banana

Some ice

Blend

YUMMERS!!!!!!!! I actually used chunky Peanut Butter and it was delicious! I couldn't drink but 4 ounces so I gave the rest to my husband. He took one sip and raised his eyebrows up and said, "Ohhh this is gooood" and then he finished it.

I tried it last night without a banana and it was awesome!

Has anyone tried the Whey Gourmet? I hear it suppose to be good. I just ordered the Slim-Fast Low Carb to see how it taste.

Don't bother with the SLIM Fast Low Carb...I just tried it and I was gagging.......It was Nasty...cardboard isn't even a good description...that's putting it mild...I even tried adding Splenda and Vanilla to it..even added some bananas and then went so far as to add some peaches..thinking hmmm smoothie...obtw.....I put mine in little personal blender to make it creamy and ice creamyyyyy. I was able to eat about 10 small spoonfuls and I was done..at this rate I will be a RAIL if this is my choices.......NASTY...did I mention not GOOD. I am hoping my other four kinds I bought today to try will be better then this one. I bought the Akins and the EAS along with some Protein that you add to Water that is a drink--fruity type---and then some carnation instant BFST type stuff...hoping it is better and I saved the best for last. I am getting a little scared since I have find something since I have started my high protein/low carb. 10 day pre op diet....

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
