Your could also add lowfat powderd milk to things, or egg white powder (you cand get it at the grocery store. These were 2 of the things my dietition recomended as a good source of protien. I really have a hard time drinking protien too. I have pretty good luck with sugar free Carnation instant breakfast (I have to add a drop of vanilla). hope this helps! good luck Katie

The thickness of the shakes is hard for me too. I bought a punch flavored, liquid protien from GNC and I add it to water with splenda. It has 18 grams of protien, so I try to drink two a day. It kind of tastes like crystal light. Also, there is a clear liquid protien drink the sell by the bottle, but I can't remember the name...I'll try to get it tonight at my support group meeting. Good luck Rachel

Try the Syntrax Nectars. I just got the Roadside Lemonade and it is great. I too got sick on the protein powders. This is a life saver.

Hi Eunice, Greg for PA, did you try Whey Delicious? They have several flavors of shakes ... they seem to work for me and taste good they also have a product called Whey Fruity ... didn't try this yet, but its supposed to taste like Hawawian Punch ... thay have a web site to purchase if you cant find it locally. Good luck, hope this info was helpful. Greg
