Thegirlnextdoor 0 Posted January 29, 2009 Right before the surgery and for a short period of time, I was drinking a lot of the EAS shakes but got so sick of them and I wasn't fond of the taste. I do miss the weight loss that came with drinking them though. Do you guys have suggestions on what you like as far as Protein drinks ? That actually taste decent . Thanks!

TQUAD64 9 Posted January 29, 2009 Well I like the Isopure Fruit Drinks, which have 40 grams of Protein. I also like the NewWhey protein bullets, which have 42 grams of protein. I but them at GNC. But other people have bought these items at Wal-Mart. I have never founf them at my local Wal-Mart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They only have 15grams of Protein, but the strawberry one takes like a real shake. I am drinking one right now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bearbandit 0 Posted January 29, 2009 This is my recovery drink after a good workout. 8oz of vanilla Soy Milk 2 scoops of Perfect Isopure vanilla Protein powder (50g) 1/4 cup of frozen blueberries 1 small bananna 1 scoop of ground flax seed. 1 handful of ice cubes *56g of Protein and 460 calories* This is a very tasty shake. I only drink this shake after I burn lots of calories because of the amount of calories in it. Helps build lean muscle. Surgery date 10/9/08 1st Fill 11/11/08=3.5cc 2nd Fill 12/9/08=1.5cc 3rd Fill 1/9/08=.75cc Total 5.75cc in a 14 cc band Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JuneAct2 0 Posted January 29, 2009 I like the Atkins shakes. The mocha latte is my favorite, followed by the Dark chocolate. My band is tight in the mornings so I have one for Breakfast instead of solid foods. I actually crave these things now! Who would have guessed that?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HOWLUCKYAMI 0 Posted January 29, 2009 I lived on Myoplex Original Ready-to-Drink shakes. Loved the chocolate Fudge and Vanilla Cream. strawberry Cream isn't bad either, but I can only do those every couple of days. They have 300 calories, but its a 17 oz container, with a very convenient twist off top that is resealable. I used to bring them with me anywhere and could drink all day long. 42 grams of Protein, 6 grams of Fiber and only 2 grams of sugar. They pack a lot of punch and taste really good. One and a half of these a day and I'd pretty much met my protein goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

health4life 0 Posted January 30, 2009 I got this recipe from another bander on here shortly after I was banded and I LOVE this Protein shake. I modified it somewhat. 1 scoop of CHAMPION Pure whey banana Scream (130 calories, 2.5g fat, 3g carbs, 23g Protein, 1g fiber) 4-5 oz cold Water (or skim milk if you prefer) 1/2 frozen banana (72 calories, 18.5 carbs, 0.9 protein, 2.1 fiber) 4-5 frozen mango pieces (3/4 c = 90 calories, 24 carbs, >1g protein, 3g fiber) 1 T High Lignan 100% organic Flax Oil, a great way to get your Omega-3 fatty acids (110 calories, 1g fiber) (ice cubes optional) This is a great Protein Drink snack for after a good workout session. ENJOY!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LessJess 0 Posted January 30, 2009 I saw this somewhere on here and its good.... I use Isopure zero carb Protein powder w/ Water and add in half (if 6oz) or all (if making a 12 oz shake) of a single serving crystal light orange sunrise. shake it with about 3-4 ice cubes and it taste like a dreamsicle.

Maranda 0 Posted February 1, 2009 I recently found a warehouse outlet nectar Cappiccino for 19.99 (in most stores starting at 35.00) thought what the hell I will try it. OMG I love this. It taste like an international coffee. I do half Water and half fat free milk. I heat it up. It is hot coffee. I LOVE it so much I bought all they had. Finally a Protein drink I love that I cannot taste the Protein or whey whatever it is that I can taste that is not appealing to me. This flavor does not have that taste to me. Give it whirl. I could drink this all day long. Likely because it is hot. Who knows. Good luck in your endeavour finding the "one" that works for you. :thumbup: Maranda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
