thanks!

i know and the group i was working with said they needed an extra ten minutes but they stayed an extra hour. they paid for it but it still was an extra hour of work.

i am hoping the vanilla premier is better. i have to have at least one to get my protein goals.

i have looked and premier seems to be the best. i will try going out and hunting down some additional samples.

thanks for the support.

Cheers

I may not be there yet, but I'm closer than I was yesterday!

Hopefully you'll like the vanilla better. I really like it in my decaf.

One thing to mention, when i was as early out as you are, I found everything tasted awful, and I always had a bad taste in my mouth. I brushed my teeth so many times and couldn't get rid of the taste. I was told it was because I was in ketosis. The bad taste went away after about 3 or 4 weeks, even though I was still in ketosis from the super low carbs. So if you're super low carb, it could just be that nothing will taste good until you pass this stage. Just a possibility.

Take care.

IM going to try making my own decaf cold brew coffee and putting the vanilla premier in that over ice!! I think it will compete with the "protein shake" flavour and cut the sweetness big time. Crossing my fingers that'll be the way I can stomach it moving forward.

I got grounds to make my own today! And tried with cold black decaf and it was definitely better! Cuts the sweetness. Can't wait to try the cold brew!
