Protien.....HELP!!!!
I have discovered Carb Countdown Milk. It comes in fat free, 2% and chocolate. They have 12g of protein per 8oz serving and are really good...and I am not a big milk drinker. I add some sugar free vanilla syrup to the plain milk and it tastes like a vanilla shake. I have trouble with protein too so this has really helped me. Hope it helps you!
Christine,
The key to liking protein powder is finding a good one. I have found a couple that I really like. Try the bariatriceating.com website and purchase some samples. I was really brave and bought 4 large containers (belgian chocolate, vanilla cinnamon, banana and cappucino) of the IDS protein powder (it was on sale and I am a sucker for a sale). It is fabulous. I usually mix it with milk but I have mixed the belgian chocolate with Jello's sugar free, fat free instant chocolate fudge pudding and the vanilla cinnamon with vanilla pudding. They are Yummy! My husband even likes it and he mixes it with water.
I also use Unjury protein powder (they have a website also- add the www & com) You can order samples also. I mix the vanilla with 8 oz of Wal-Marts version of Crystal lite drink mixes. The orange is my favorite, it tastes like a creamsicle.
I hope these couple of ideas help. Good luck!

I love and drink daily Isopure premixed protein. It comes in many great flavors. It used to coat my tongue, which would be my only complaint, but I don't notice it very much. It is like a kool-aid type drink. It has 40g protein. I also like EAS Carb Smart Cafe Caramel, 25g protein in 11 oz, also premixed. There is a great site valleynutrition.com where you can order samples. I have too many to samples to choose from. There is a good one to mix with water called Nectar, its in powder form. Hope that gives you some more options. I also found a protein bar that is just like a baby ruth, Atkins Endulgance, the one with peanuts around the outside of the bar. I think it has 10g protein, and it tastes like a candy bar, I use these in moderation.
