Help! Blue Bell NSA Ice Cream? How Bad is it?
Kim
definately try AT HOME lol. Ice cream doesnt work for lots of folks and with milk - even tho you got the NSA it has a lot of milk sugar and combined with the 2% thats a lot of fat and milk sugar at once. Sometime that combo can be deadly to a post op, Just tread carefully. I personally woudlnt attempt it.
FOR ME. i use mootopia milk (found at HEB) beceause it has likd 1/2 the sugar of reg milk and much more protein and im not sure that adding ice cream is a good idea NSA or not.
I dont recall what kind of shake mix you use, i add SF pudding mixes to mine - about 1/4 of the pack of DRY mix.. addes flavor and thickness. try that instead of the calories and fat of the ice cream.

im sorry - i meant deadly as im dumping from hell. WHen i dump, i beg God to let me die lol.
I dump horribly tho.. most dont.
Get some of the powdered mixes. watch the walgreens sales, they run them 5/$1 all the time. I stock up lol.
YOu are so new at this, please dont try the ice cream, as Dana said.. it may be a trigger for you and we certaintly dont want that to happen.
I also get the optimimum nutrition vanilla ice cream flavor, then you can add all kinds of pudding mixes to it, and as for the syrups, a lil goes a LONG way. just barely put any and add if needed.
Pm dana your email addy, she has a buttload of recipes to send you. i PROMISE SOMETHING will work! and girl, none are gonna be a DQ Blizzard, but something is gonna be able to go down ok :)

Kim, what are you trying to accomplish? Do you want your shake thicker, different taste, etc? Liz made a good point the s/f puddings and s/f jellos work well to change the test of a shake. I enjoy vanilla protein because of the versitility.
I have loads of protein shake recipes (I will need to look for them) if you are interested send me a PM with your email address and I'll send them to you.
I don't recommend the ice cream for two reasons 1) you may dump adding it to your shake; 2**** cream isn't a good choice long-term.....it could be a trigger that will be hard to break.

Thanks you guys! No, I'm not really big into sweets, I just didn't know if doing that occasionally would be too bad... It's just after I butchered a shake with torani's sf syrup this morning, I was trying to find something new.
Where do u get your different flavored protein powders???
Currently, I have unjury unflavored...and the sf choc syrup and tbsp of peaut butter is getting SUPER OLD VERY QUICK! LOL

Kim, I use the Optimum Nutrition brand that I usually get from GNC. I usually wait until the have it buy one get the 2nd 50% off and stock up then, lol.
You can get them online here http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/opt/whey.html?CJAID=106030 46&CJPID=2678188. They have samples, if I recall it was like 16 flavors. I'll be honest and say I didn't like the majority of the samples. I'm pretty much a chocolate and vanilla kinda girl and I add stuff to make them different if I want more than just vanilla or just chocolate.
On the S/F syrup you used.....it doesn't take much. I'd venture to say no more than 1 tbsp and you'll be overdoing it.
