Protein Demon

Hi Shannon, I drink this protein called Muscle Milk,it is sooooooo good.I buy it from the Vitamin store.Its about $35 per container(2.48 lbs) and it has 32grms of protein per 2 scoops. They have about 4 different flavors that I know of.But I was like you,I didnt like any of the protein that was out there and I wouldnt drink any,until I bought this one. You can always return it if you dont like the brand or taste. Just letting you know Rosie

I'm not a big fan of shakes either, Shannon, but I do like the canned Atkins shakes. Also, I take pro stat 64 protein syrup. One ounce is 15 grams of protein, so I do that twice per day and have one shake for 50 grams of protein and I get another 10 or 15 grams through food. The pro stat is NOT tasty, but it's only one ounce, so you can down a shot fairly easily. I am actaully getting accustomed to the taste and it's not as yucky as it once was. I think of it as my "magic weightloss potion" - that makes it much easier to swallow. Talk to your surgeon about how much protein you should be getting since it varies from doctor to doctor. My doc says 60 grams per day, but my friends doc says 50 for women and 60 for men, and others say something different altogether, so check with yours. I think the flintstones are okay, but just take two of them rather than just one and add in suppllements for iron (ferrus fumerate), calcium citrate, and B12. Good luck!
