Protein Shakes...

Any suggestions on protein shakes/powders to buy? I am trying to get stocked up and would love any suggestions.  I don't have a clue when it comes to this.

Thanks!

the eas brand at walmart/ sams is accually a really good brand.  It is cheaper at sams. 
My favorite is nectar which I have found at vitiamn shoppee.  It comes in all kinds of flavors. 
You want to make sure they have at least 25 gm of protein no matter which brand.

Hi there,

I was so picky on them shakes most of them tasted horrible !!! The more protein added to them the worse they taste in my opinion lol.

The only one I found I liked and could drink without gagging was the Muscle Milk Light Chocolate. It was actually pretty good just drink them cold.

 

Oooo Steelerfan, it's funny how we're all different in our taste.  I bought the chocolate muscle milk light and gave it to my son-in-law as I couldn't stand that one.  Hope your day is going your way!  ~Debbie~

I bought 2 bags at GNC of their brand Whey Protein AMP shakes in vanilla and Chocolate. I still like the flavor.  I was banded in January and still have some of the Vanilla.  I also keep the Atkins premixed for in a hurry or on the go times.  I only rely on shakes  when I have a fill now, because my doc says the band works best with protein from food.  I added peanut butter to my chocolate, when I was on full liquids and coconut DiVinci syrup at times to have more flavors.  I found PB2 and use that now because it has the flavor and protein of peanut butter, but not as many calories.  Many who are especially tight in the a.m. start their day with a shake, and move onto food later.  For many, it satisfies that "sweet" they want in an acceptable way.  I will be back on liquids tomorrow as I will be going for a fill, and though I've turned fills down the last 2 or 3 visits, I definately need one now.  Good Luck to you and keep us informed.

I use Syntha 6 its cheapest @ VitaminShoppe... I got the vanilla flavor, it tastes like melted ice cream when mixed w/ skim milk. I got tired of drinkin protein tho so i just mix it into my yogurt & stuff

I get whey at walmart.  It's only $15.00.  I mix it with milk.  I enjoy it.

I like the GNC Metabolic Whey in chocolate and vanilla.  I also add a splash of DaVinci Peanut butter SF syrup -- or whatever other flavor you might like.  PB2 which is a powdered peanut butter is also good in the GNC. 

I also discovered the Champion Stacker Chocolate Whey. Has a great milkshaky taste to it. 

As far as trying different samples, try www.netrition.com  They have a sample pack that you can try.  There are also the Nectar proteins which are good but just got too sweet for me after a while.

Good luck!
