Protein shake receipes?

I know that people have poted redeipes for protein shakes and i was wondering if possible if someone could email me some. I do not know what i did with mine. I go for preops for surgery on June 21, my sleep study on june 22, and another psych eval on June 28. Dr Argotte said that i could probably have suregry the 2nd week of July i am getting excited and nervous at the same time. I have been waiting for this moment since last year and finally it is almost here. Thanks to anybody that emails me some receipes. Nanette

Hi Nanette...check out the Alabama board as there is a member who posts daily shakes recipes...email her and she more than likely send them to you! Good luck to you! Peggy 3/14/05 301/246

Peggy, Thanks for the mention.. I have recipes on my profile for those who dont want to wait for a recipe each day. The recipes call for different brands of protein mix. I do NOT buy different brands, I use whatever I have on hand. I usually use IsoPure protein that is available from GNC (or online at Vitalady). Isopure has zero carbs and zero sugar grams. I must admit it doesn't taste good mixed with only water, but is not detectable when mixed as a "shake". If you use the recipes, I ask that you email me and let me know so I will know my efforts were not in vain. Gina
