Run..do not walk, RUN!!

Right now, get in your car and drive over the docs office and buy some protein powder...Jim's PermaLean Protein, Bodacious Berry flavor. I just went and stocked up on my protein stuff and splurged and bought one of these. Of course I HAD to come right home and mix one up. Can you say GOOD STUFF! They had vanilla, chocolate and this berry. I never buy such a big container of anything without sampling first but this time I did. It has 20 grams protein per scoop. I mixed mine with 10 oz of Carb Countdown instead of water and a few ice cubes in my Tupperware Shaker and I am having the best berry milk shake for lunch. With a hefty 35 grams of protein. $25.00 per container 20 grams protein per scoop 5 grams sugar 1 gram fat 110 calories 24 servings per container BEST thing I've bought in ages New Jim's Convert, Linda

Linda, Think I am gonna have to be trying this one for sure now that I have heard such high raves from you. Does the docs office also carry the permalean line of protein bars? Also, does the berry taste like strawberry or like mixed berries? I had heard that this one uses Stevia for sweeting? But when I saw you posting, it says 5 gms sugar? Sucrose or frucrose? Sorry for so many questions, but I am really curious about this line Linda!!! Thanks so much for the heads up! Hugs, Tammy

Hi Tammy, Ok, going to get the can...ok, back ( missed me huh lol ) 1. I didn't see any bars at the office ( did see them on the website tho as well as the cannisters of powder. Doc's office is $10.00 cheaper say yay! ) 2. it tastes like a cross between strawberry and berry, very mild flavor, not in your face fake tasting. 3. Ingredients read: Whey concentrate, Whey isolate( ion exchange whey) Crystallized fructose, Stevia, natural flavors, natural raspberry flavor, guargum,raspberry concentrate Hope this helps, Linda

Linda .... where are you ... ahhhh there you are .... sure did miss you!!! Thanks so much for the information. AND YAY YAY YAY about the savings!!! Ever been in such an ornery mood that you just KNOW you are going to get into trouble??? I feel like this could be me today. Get out the duct tape ... and help me out will ya?? It really feels good to feel really good ... ya know??? I so missed being playful ... soooo glad it has returned!!!

Linda, Can you send me the website? I'm so jealous!!! I haven't tried the carb countdown milk..I have problems with milk now..but is this easier on our pouches? Hugs to you! I'm so proud of your century mark! You go girl!!! Kimberly

Kimberly, I am not Linda ... but since she is usually up and posting by now ... I am thinking that perhaps she is taking a much needed rest and sleeping in a bit. So I hope you both don't mind if I answer this request. BTW - sorry to hear about your lactose intolerance. I really don't have a problem with it, but my girlfriend sure does. She said that she pops lact-aide? like crazy all the time. She finds that carbcoundown is easier on her pouch. BUT I hear of others who disagree ... hopefully you will be able to try for yourself soon. I know the stats on it are sooo much better than regular milk. http://www.permalean.com/ http://www.hphood.com/products/products.list.Cb.asp Are you feeling any better today? Hugs, Tammy

Thanks Tammy...lol and you are right, I was snoozing late this morning! Mad dash getting the kids out the door for school too. None of us wanted to get up

mmmm sounds yummy. I never buy the powder stuff as it always made me gag. Maybe I should check it out. Im a little nervous though! I always buy the isopure bottles. the orange/banana/pineapple flavored ones. Oh I wanted to respond to you about the labs. Well, last time I was there I mentioned the labs and brett brought up that they looked good and I said it was a while ago. I told them a long time ago that I would not do the labs through PMRI because the doc that issues them isn't covered under my insurance. The labs that I did Brett gave me the slip to have them done. So no charge for me! I havent been to the nutritionist unfortunately for a very long time because everytime the appointment came up I was either doing something with my son at school or one time had a conflicting doctors appt. then she was all booked up for a month and I havent called back. So it was a series of things for that. I am going to request that they do my labs when I go to my next appt at Dr. Wynns office. I am a bit nervous about them. I hope they all turn out alright but its just been sooooo long since I had them done. I feel like calling now actually! Elizabeth M

Hi Elizabeth, Glad you are getting back on top of the labs. As for the powders, yep, alot of them can be very..well...ewww lol. This mixed up very easily just using a shaker and wasn't gloppy at all. No chalky taste either. Hope your next lab work comes back good. Linda

Hi Elizabeth, posted a reply once and lost it to cyberville, so trying again lol. I know what you mean about some of the powders, they can be really awful. This one mixes very nicely using just a shaker, no gloppy 'mouth feel' or taste. I'm glad you're getting back on top of your labs, hope they all come out good! Linda
