WE NEED....

We need to have a new "topic for the day" everyday. Any suggestions???? L

well I know one for today.........I'm interested in finding a great tasting high protein drink. I hear the Nectar protein water is good. I was thinking about buying a container or two on eBay cause I can get a good price there. I was hoping someone had some experience with this so I can try some of them out before surgery. We can start with that one............I'm sure I can think of something for tomorrow. *wink* Hugs Shel

i wish i could find a great tasting protein drink. LOL i've settled for tolerable. supposedly the Isopure pre-mixed drinks aren't bad. However, they are expensive. If you like the mint chocolate frappucino's from Starbucks.. try SciFit's Cool Chocolate Mint. I mix it with ice, some SF chocolate pudding mix [thicken it a little, gives more chocolate flavor] and 4-6oz of skim milk. throw it in the blender and poof - proteinucino. hugs, kristen

I absolutely LOVE Reeves Nutrition's ULTRA WHEY. It now replaces my morning coffee!! I mix one pack of C.I.B., 8oz of 1%milk, two ice cubes, and one scoop of Reeves ULTRA WHEY Chocolate. It mixes so easy and doesn't have a chalky taste or a strange after taste. Here are the Nutritional Facts: (Per Scoop) calories - 115 Calories from fat - 13 Total Fat - 1.5 g Saturated Fat - 1g Cholesterol - 26mg Sodium - 40mg Potassium - 120mg Calcuim - 200mg Total Carbs 1.5g Dietary Fiber 0g Sugars - 0 PROTEIN - 24g!!!! Also a quote From the Reeves site: http://www.reevesnutrition.com/index.html "This unique formula exhibits the highest protein digestibility corrected amino acid scoring (PDCAAS) and promotes maximum retention" The CEO of this company and the man behind the Reeves name is well recognized in the body building circuits as is his entire family. Steve is also a fellow Rhode Islander. His body is his livelihood so he really knows his products and isn't in this just to hop on the band wagon trying to make a buck off the next big thing. Steve is truly the regular guy type and can be found at many local gyms working out just like everyone else and all it takes is a "Hi Steve" and he will walk right up to you and shake your hand. I love this stuff and will tell everyone I know about it as its not something you can get at Wal-Mart or even GNC. It's not mass marketed and only select Nutritional supplement places carry it. Locally it can be found at Performance Nutrition PERFORMANCE NUTRITION SEEKONK 150 Highland Ave., Rt. 6.

Great suggestion! If I can put my 2 cents, I reccomend "Nitro-Tech" from GNC, Chocolate is my favorite, they also have Vanilla, Strawberry, and Strawberry and Banana. The best thing is that if you don't like a certain flavor you can always bring it back. I did with the Vanilla because I am not a vanilla kinda guy. Hopes this helps.
