Survey: What is your favorite protein drink/powder?
Biotest Metabolic Drive Low-carb. All flavors! It can only be bought on-line: www.t-nation.com . Before you go to t-nation understand that it is a body buidling site...mainly for men, but a women's group is there also. Just go to the store and shop. If you buy 4 at a time, you get them for $30.00 each not a bad price.
I like Dymatize Elite cafe mocha flavor. One thing I like about it is that it is only $19.99 per tub at Vitamin Shoppe. Another thing I like is that it is a Dallas company -- buy local!
But the real reason I use it is that it tastes pretty darn good. I create a coffee Frappuccino-type beverage for breakfast every morning by combining the following in a Magic Bullet:
1 scoop Dymatize Elite cafe mocha
1 cup unsweetened soymilk
About 6 or 8 ice cubes
Not too sweet or too thick like so many protein shakes, and I like the iciness of it. With the soymilk it has 31g protein and NO sugar.

The only protien powder I can stomach is Nectar. I buy the fuzzy navel flavor. I've not tried any other flavor. Why mess with success? It is fine mixed with water. But awesome mixed with natural orange crystal lite. I like things really cold so I looking for my old ice cube trays. I want to make ice cubes out of crystal lite so I can add them to the mixture for a really cold drink or throw them with the mixture in a blender and no****er down the resulting concoction. I get it online from bariatric eating but I think other sites sell it as well.
Amaze Rx...kinda pricey(I don't know...maybe not) but it is one that is tasty to me. Even though I'm a chocoholic, my fav flave is the strawberry cheesecake....MMMMMMMMMMMMMM.
Liz, lemme know if you want me to send you samples! We have choc, straw and mocha. I'll check the sugar grams first for ya...it's got the fake stuff in it which is how I confirmed my allergy...lol. I keep it around for Chris but he likes his manly workout yucky stuff now. This stuff is the coolest because you shake two scoops with 6oz of cold water. It blends RIGHT UP and you DO NOT need to add anything.
