Good Protein Shake

Use Breyers Sugar Free Neopolitan Ice Cream, 1 cup skim milk, 1 packet SF Carniation Instant breakfast chocolate, 1 scoop Matrix 5.0 Vanilla Protein. YUM enjoy

Jackie, I'm desparate for something different for protein. This sounds great. How much protein it is? Marie

I used one scoop of the Matrix vanilla protein which is 23g of protein per serving, the cup of skim milk is 8g of protein and the ice cream is 2 g of protein so I guess thats 32g of protein I almost forgot the carnation instant breakfast packet is 4g so that is 36 pretty darn good. Hope you like I did and I am picky

how many calories? can we absorb that much protein in one serving?

I am lap band so I dont know It takes me awhile to get it down. It may be different for by pass patients. I don't know the calorie intake I am still sipping to heal. I will ask my nutritionist if what I did was wrong. I did it for flavor you could skip the instant breakfast perhaps and it would still taste good.

It does sound pretty yummy. You can figure out the calorie count (and carb and protein count) yourself. I use www.nutridiary.com when I have a recipe I want to calculate. Just create a "meal" and add all your ingredients and it'll calculate it for you. Pam

RNYrs can only get about 27 grams per hour on average. You're pretty below average. Maybe even marginal. But you do dress nice and you have some great friends. kp

you mean Melanie dresses me nice. If left up to me I'm wearing nothing but blue jeans and t-shirts. Which is okay with her, but she has to tell me which ones match my shoes and belt. ;-P

sounds good but not sure if i can have that....will find out tho...thanks!!!!

Check the sugar grams on the Carnation Instant Breakfast mix. Some of those products have tons of added sugar.
