Protein Shakes and Checked Luggage
I'm heading south in 7 days!! Can't wait. I won't feel like a beach whale for the first time on a southern trip. It is our 15th wedding anniversary!
I'm done to 170 lbs from 273lbs in just over 6 months!! Got a size 14 bathing suit, and can wear size 12 capris!! Last summer I was wearing size 26 capris.
I planning on taking pre made protein shakes with me that I will buy at GNC and packing them in my checked luggage. Has anyone done this?
I just want to have the shakes with me. I feel that I wouldn't get all my required protein in by just my food intake. I still have a shake everyday at home.
my concerns are with liquids........but I am checking them, not putting in my carry on. And also I don't want them to break when in the air.
Any advice for travelling south is great.
Thanks, Lindsey

my friend was coming back from mexico and was bringinf several small bottles of vanilla...decided to put them all together...well just think 3 bottles x 3 in (1) suitcase...can you say security alert...the plane was put on standby they were hauled into a security room...she told me she was never more embrassed or scare din here life...
BUT it may be MUCH different flying from here elsewhere.
If you're going to cuba or something like that, you probably have to bring your own. The other option would be to buy carnation instant breakfast packages - and mix them into your milk. They mix well without a magic bullet.
If you're going to somewhere in the US - I'd wait and buy them down there. The pre-made shakes are WAY cheaper anyway down there.
Enjoy the vacation!
The carry on bag was thoroughly checked for liquids though.
