Protein Shakes???

The Vitalady was pretty fast -- maybe 6 days, but the shipping cost $10, and they were very worried that I wouldn't want it at that price and so wanted me to confirm by email.  I did think the shipping was high, but went ahead with it, and after I got it was so glad I did since I wouldn't have had the chance to taste so many flavors and different types of brands without buying the big containers.  It really helped me narrow the two flavors I wanted to spend money on to start!

I went online yesterday to order from vitalady.com and the shipping came out to $10 also.  So on top of the $40 for the samples(about 20) my total ended up to $50.  I decided against it for now.

I did find at Vitamin World a Strawberry Kiwi flavored drink called 4EverFit Fruit Blast the Isolate.  It has per scoop, 110 Cal,  0 Fat, 0 Sugar, 1 Carb and 25g of Protein.  That tub costs me $32.97.  Then I found another powder called Nu-Tek Pro 5.  160 Cal, 1 Fat, 2 Carbs, 1 Sugar and 32g of protein.  This comes in 8 diff flavors but the man at the store gave me a sample of the cookies and cream.  I'll try it next week when I start my Liver shrinking diet.  We'll see how these taste and I'll let you all know.

Thank you for all your suggestions!

I agree, Keala... and $10 shipping and handling to HI is reasonable.

I love Nature's Best Isopure Low Carb Chocolate. I mix 2 scoops with 20oz of water and drink it through the morning. It is the only protein drink that doesn't make me want to vomit. For a quick fix I sometimes drink EAS Myoplex Carb Control Ready to Drink shakes. I like the chocolate and vanilla flavors but don't like the rest.

My tastes changed after surgery, I do not like anything fruit flavored, it just makes me queasy for some reason.

Thanks Ole!

I guess there is no way to know what I'll like after surgery.  I'll try to stick to one for the pre-op phase and try new ones after surgery
