PROTEIN

I am looking for a protein supplement that does not taste like metal or worse. I am very sensative to taste and very picky now(too bad I wasn't this picky before or I wouldn't have had to have the surgery!!LOL) Any ideas would be great. I eat LOTS of fish but the shakes are just NASTY!! Thanks a lot guys. Good luck to all!! Stephanie, Orlando Fla, Lap RNY 8-2003, down 73lbs, 50 to go!!!

Hello Stephanie, Congratulations on your current weight loss I can truely relate to the protein issue, but thanks to the ALMIGHTY ONE I have found a protein mix from "SMOOTHIE KING" (ON'S) 100% instantized whey protein with Hydrowhey!!!!! it comes in three flavors chocolate,strawberry and my favorite vanilla ice cream. When I purchased it I was prepared to mask the flavor with bannas and non-fat yogurt ice cream, but needless to say I was able to mix with 8oz of milk and it taste GREAT (NOT THICK) I almost forgot 1 scoop has 23 grams of protein. I hope this ends your search. Your WLS friend, Queen Diva

To the Queen Diva(((LOVE THE NAME)))) Thanks so much, I will go and get it this weekend, I tried the other suggestion on the post to no avail--can;t stand the taste!! I will let you know and thanks a LOT!!!! Stephanie

I have had the hardest time finding a protein powder that I like or can tolerate. This is the only kind that will work for me and it is actually growing on me. I use Carb Solution Brand (Vanilla) found at Walmart.It also comes in Chocolate flavor too. I mix 1 container of the Blue Bunny yogurt Lite 85 (made with splenda also found at Walmart and comes in many flavors), 1 container water, 2 scoops vanilla protein and ice. I blend it in my blender until smooth. I am now trying to cut back my yogurt to just 1/2 container to keep my carbs down. I hope this is helpful. I am always open for suggestions myself.
