Anyone of you try "About Time" protein.  I hadn't heard of it til yesterday.  It's sweetned with Stevia just like Jay Robb and Now Sports.  I wonder if it tastes as good.   They have quite of varity of flavors. And seems to be much cheaper than Jay Robb. Any thoughts?

checked MFP for various products... they all have decent amounts of protein, powders for shakes and protein bars alike... the bars seem to have mor esugar per serving than Id like but they dont seem to be a bad choice for those who are into those sort of things...

 I got some samples of it from a fellow OH member.  I did not care for them at all.  But I am not a fan of most proteins.  I decided to give the samples to another WLS friend.  She liked them.  So I guess it is just dependant upon your tastes.  Try to find a sample pack.

Yeah thanks, that's what I'm gonna do.  I'm not going to buy a 10 lbs of it before I sample them.   :-)  lol  There's a lot of flavors so I'm gonna try ever one.   Cappacino flavor has really good reviews.  :-)

I like the about time, in birthday cake, and cinnamon swirl, especially. The stats are really good, very low carb and only 103 calories for 23 g protein (I think, that's off the top of my head). They do mix up a little thick in the shaker, but that didn't bother me until just recently.

Hey long time no see on here.  How's it going?  I remember talking to you on the phone.  I finally decided on a doctor but I'm going to stay local.  Remember how long it took me debating from one doc to the next.  I really though appreciate talking to you and a few other on the phone when I was thinking of having surgery in Mexico.  It really helped to hear different experiences of the surgery.  Regardless of the fact I decided to stay local.  From everything I did hear I felt confident if I had either choosen Dr Aceves or Dr Alvarez.  My problem really is that I feel too unhealthy to travel.  As it turns out I found a self pay program local.  The doctor with the program doesn't have as much experience as the 2 doctors As with the VSG but yet I feel he's expierenced enough and I have talked and meet some of his post op patients that are doing very well.  He's been a bariatric surgery for many years so I feel good about that too in case I have complicaions.  Of course in the US there's a lot of preop testing so that's what I'm doing now.  I have an endoscopy on Aug 10th possibly a sleep study after that.  Depending on how the test results go my tenative surgery date is Oct 1st.  :-) 
Oh yeah back to the subject I'm gonna give this stuff a try.  I want protein that's natural I got some Jay Robb but it's expensive.  So I'm going to order some sample of this About time protein since it's a *****eaper. 
Thanks again for all your advice on the phone and on here both!  Take care, Tammy
