Found some protein powder that doesn't make me barf!

I work with a couple of gym rat guys who were discussing protein shakes.  I told them they better start sharing their info unless they wanted to look at my bald head!  They recommended NuBlend 7.  It has 7 different kinds of protein and because of that it's timed release.  The egg and dairy protein stay in your system longer than the whey protein. Ok, forget all of that techie stuff.  This stuff tastes good and it not gritty.  I mixed it at my office with just a plastic spoon and I could actually drink it and not make a face!  Just thought I'd share this information in case anyone was struggling with protein shakes.  FYI - I bought it at Get Fit on Memorial just west of Broadway in Edmond.  Kim

I am so glad you found a protein drink you like.  I do have a concern with it being time released.  I know with the RNY we are not to do time released or extended release on medications and things so I am assuming that would it include protein also.  I do not know if this is the same with the sleeve, but you might want to check before you purchase it.

I didn't know that.  I'll contact my NUT and see what she says1 Thank you so much for the heads up! Kim

I like the Unjury Vanilla and Chocolate. I blend different combos, but every shake gets the protein powder, the ground flax seed. The chocolate gets the pb2 also in addition to that stuff.  I dumped SF choc syrup in the choco one this week..Yummmy!

Kim, How is the sugar content? I was just wondering because I had never heard of it. I turned Cat onto the choc unjury mixed with the PB2 and ground flax seed. I also mix some sf Davinci caramel syrup in mine. If you haven't tried it yet, give it a try sometime, Rita

14 carbs and 2 sugar.  That's good right?  I already bought some unflavored Unjury but haven't tried it yet.  Thought it might be good during the liquid phase I'm so looking forward too!

What is flax seed?  Or maybe I should say, what does it taste like and why is it good for you? Kim

That is very good. You did well!!!!!!!!!

Kim, Flax seed is used to lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglycerides. It is also a good source of fiber. You can buy them whole, ground or as an oil. When you eat them ground they kind of taste like fine chopped up nuts. They are really  healthy  for you.

Yup, the lovely Rita turned me on to all that stuff. The flax seed also works to counter the effects of all that calcium making my bathroom a much friendlier place. My tushie is thankful as well. Thank you, Rita! I like to mix strawberries and bananas into the vanilla with just a smoosh of Splenda with the flax seed.
