yucky protein drinks...

I am so frustrated I have waster soo much money on protein drinks and now have a freakin cabinet full of them that i dont like I am gonna try to take some back this weekend.. but anyone have any suggestions..
my latest was Click and yuck.... I also have done the isopure flavoured drinks, adn then the ones from the weight loss clinic .. yuck on that too.. and I knwo I need them to get protein in my body ..

Thanks

did you try them with water or milk? Sometimes they are not good with water, but taste good with milk.  I personally ONLY drink my shakes with milk.  I will usually add ice to them to make them more like a milk shake.  OR for something like chocolate you can warm it up and have it like hot chocolate.  

Hi there,
I like the Max protein protein powder they sell those at GNC I like the chocolate and Cookies N Cream. I also like the Any Whey since it's unflavored I use it mostly to cook with and add it to soups and such. I hope that helps you.

Early on I could only eat them frozen.  I'd mix it up and freeze.  Take out about 20 minutes then eat with a spoon --- like an icy.

Now I only like them warm.  I use Inspire Brand from bariatric eating but have also used the Body Fortress you can get at Walmart or Target.  I mix with cold water til smooth then add ho****er from the tea kettle.  It ends up warm.  I mix 1 scoop with 16oz of water vs. the end on the directions.  This morning it was hot chocolate, some mornings cinnamon cappacino flavor and others caramel latte . . . .  If I want mocha I add a tsp of instant decaf coffee and mix with the chocolate.  I look forward to them.

Just curious which GNC you found the Max Protein.  I am using Slim Fast High Protein and really want to change it with something different.  I see eggface uses that in everything, so I was hoping to find it some place local.  Is it really good?

Hi Max Protein is only found @ franchise stores there is one @ Cottman Ave/ Castor  on the Cottman Av side next to toys R us, this stuff is so goo when cold taste like yooh hoo when used in warm water makes hot chocolate no need to mix with water cause it is that good

Thanks Susan, it is right up the street.  I will be going there this week.  Thanks again!

Ok - so what have you tried DOING with them so far?  They're really versatile - you can mix them with nonfat milk, evaporated nonfat milk (a little thicker), greek yogurt... make pudding... add milk and frozen fruit to make a really delicious thick milkshake (that you can freeze into "ice cream")...

Have you looked at the recipes for protein shakes that I had posted a while ago?  bariatriceating.com has a bunch and the barix connection store has a ton... http://www.barixclinicsstore.com/recipe_main.html

I have used Body Fortress Whey chocolate which is easy to find at any Wal-Mart and Unjury unflavored. I really like both of these. But when making the chocolate I always use skim milk. I couldn't get it down with water and you can use yogart and make a smoothie. Best of luck!

I use the chocolate Max Protein and mix with skim mil**** cubes and SF Da Vinci syrups.  If you buy 2, you get 1 free at GNC.  Last time I was near Philadelphia, I picked up three 5-lb containers.  I had a really difficult time tolerating protein drinks until a friend, Lois, turned me on to Max protein.  I have a variety of Da Vinci syrups I mix with it.  This morning for breakfast, I had a chocolate Max protein with 3 pumps of Da Vinci Praline - yummy.  It was like a milkshake.  Good luck finding what works for you.
