Vitamins & Protein Shakes

So has anyone found any good protein shakes or vitamins to take.  I am lookin online and there are some many of them. I am sure what is a good deal or is there something better over the counter that I can get?

All I need right now is a protein shake (60 mg per day), and a good multi vitamin with at least 1,000 ICU (I have to get in 2,000 ICU a day) of Vit D per my doctor.

Protein shakes really depend on your taste preferences. I prefer fruity flavored shakes, such as Syntrax Nectars and 4Ever Fit Fruit the Blast flavors. I also have Isopure Plus. My tummy has lactose issues now, so I am anticipating this continuing post-op.

I purchased a bunch of protein samples to try after surgery just in case my tastes change.  But I have tried a sample or two and I'm quite pleased thus far.

For vitamins, I have been getting most of mine from CVS and Walgreens. They usually have BOGO Free or 50% off.

I also use www.luckyvitamin.com for samples, vitamins, blender ball cups, and whatever else I can't find.



HTH,

Thanks Renee,
  I do have lactose probelms right now too.  I don't think it will change after the surgery either.  Where do you find the 4Ever Fit Fruit or Isopure?  Do you have to order them online? Thanks for the information.  I did pick up some Centrum chewables today, just to get me through, I have my diet that I start on Monday.  So trying to pick things up to get me through the first week of surgery that is in 3 weeks.  Thanks for the help!

No problem!
www.vitalady.com, www.gnc.com, www.luckyvitamin.com are online sites that have the 4Ever Fit. I bought mine from eBay, but plan to get more from Vitalady.

If you have a Gold Card (and I think there's a special now for the holiday) GNC.com or in-store you can save big! They have both 4Ever Fit and Isopure Plus. 

CVS.com sells Isopure Plus online, but not in-store. Ohh and www.amazon.com sells it too. They also have the Isopure RTD Zero Carb. I have read that many people swear by them. I haven't tried them, but there are more flavor options available.

I hope this helps.

Our dates are approaching quickly!

I just had surgery, so everything I'm on now is in chewable form. I found the best deals at Nashua Nutrition (www.nashuanutrition.com), and my order arrived the day after I placed it without any expedited shipping or anything. I'm taking Celebrate multi as well as iron and calcium. A one months supply of all three was only about $45.

I drink mostly Isopure but I also have Vanilla Whey Protein (from allthewhey.com) to mix it up flavor-wise.

Good luck ladies! :)

Thanks for the help! :) I will look into it.

 No problem! Getting nervous? it will be here before you know it!

Yeah I am really nervous but excited too!  I have so some much I want to do this year and it is the best way I can start the year off! :)

 Oh totally! 2010 is going to be wonderful!!! Time to pop a pain pill and sleep the day away. I'm only 5 days out and I hear sleep is the best medicine! Have a great day!

I highly reccomend you checking out GNC! They are having a huge sale. I walked out of there with a huge thing of there cookies and cream Wheybolic protein for like 13.99 after it being on sale, my GNC card, and hubby buying something and thus getting it for 1/2 off. I tried a sample in the store and it was delicious! The Body Fortress Whey from walmart is also really good!
