Protein Powder and Liquids

Okay...so I have come looking for many answers concerning protein drinks....so I thought I woudl give back to the future/current searchers.

I tried BSN Lean Dessert Protein Powder in the flavor of Whipped Vanilla.  The powder itself is one scoop of powder per 4-5 oz of a liquid of choice.  It has about 130 calories, 3 g fat, 7 carbs (3g sugar), and 20g protein.  I tried it with both milk and water....I prefer it with milk because it tastes like a thick milk shake!  I haven't tried any syrups in it, but that is next on the list. 

They have a flavor called Cinnamon Roll (or something similar)

I just wanted to pass this along!

I also found this AWESOME coffee mix thing.....it's called French Vanilla Cafe and made by General Foods International.  I got the stuff at walmart and it was in a small square tin next to the coffee section.  Anyway, it is sugar free and is about 30 calories, 2.5 g of fat, 2g carbs (no sugars), and no Protein.  It is SO delicious!!!!!!!!!!!  I'm going to try some unflavored protein to put in it and see how that tastes.....but with me having problems drinking regular water, and powerades being too high in carbs...well, this is a great alternative! 

Just wanted to share!!!!!

I am  a fan of the BSN Lean powders. I love to Cinnamon Roll, Cookies and Cream and Chocolate Peanut Butter. Man, it's been years since I've has the Int'l. coffees. You now have me wanting to try them again.

Bodybuilding.com is the cheapest http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/bsn/bio.htm
There are usually additional 10% off coupons on retailmenot.com

The Lean Dessert and Syntha 6 are the lean powders.

The Click protein that they advertise on OH can be drank hot and it tastes just like the General Foods International Swiss Mocha!!!

I got my BSN at Vitamin Shoppe, but I believe GNC sells it as well.  I think I will get the cinnamon roll this weekend. 

I may have to try the protein you are suggesting as well, Sharyn.  Thanks!

The Cinnamon Roll is one of my favorites.  Chris's favorite is the Banana Nut Bread.  They are awesome.

Banana Nut Bread and Cinnamon Roll are good ones to add to oatmeal for more protein in your breakfast.
