I don't know about a site, but try this (a variation on a recipe from Charlotte Goode): Blend up 1 cup of milk, 2 sugar-free "oreo" cookies, a tablespoon of Cool Whip Free, a scoop of protein powder (vanilla, chocolate, or unflavored), and 2 packets of Splenda. I GUARANTEE you will love it! =)

I like to use EAS protein powder (Walmart $8.99/12 servings). I blend it with a cup of 1% milk, a handful of frozen fresh strawberries, and a packet of Splenda. Its really good, I have it almost everyday for breakfast since I'm not much of an eater in the morning and this goes down really well. I picked up the Carb Solutions Powder this past trip to Walmart just to experiment and while its OK, I find it a bit gritty for my liking.

I don't know of a site, but here is the shake I drink every morning, and even my hubby loves it! I promise, you will like it. 2 scoops Designer Whey Chocolate powder, 1/2 container Dannon Lite N Fit yogurt (favorite flavors are Cherry vanilla, Vanilla, Banana Cream Pie, Blackberry Pie and Strawberry Banana) 5 ounces of water, 1/2 cup of crushed ice. Blend untilvery smooth and creamy. It is delicious! The hardest part is choosing what flavor yogurt to use. Good luck!

Some of my favorite concoctions are as follows: 2 scoops vanilla protein powder + 1 tsp. vanilla extract + splenda to taste + 2 tsp. non-dairy coffee creamer (for richness - optional) + 8-12 oz. water + 8 oz. crushed ice blend on high for a vanilla thick shake. 2 scoops vanilla protein powder + 1 tsp. vanilla extract + 8 oz. water + 1/2 cup frozen fruit + splenda to taste, blend on high speed until desired consistency. Add about 1/2 tsp. coconut extract to the pineapple recipe for a pina colada taste. My favorite fruits to use are strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and crushed pineapple. If the fruit is frozen, it thickens the drink to a shake like consistency without diluting the flavor. If the fruit is not frozen, add some crushed ice or a few ice cubes ... but I think this dilutes the flavor too much, so I either use frozen fruit or freeze fruit canned in its own juice ... no sugar added. 2 scoops vanilla protein powder, 1 teaspoon SF Tang powdered drink mix (more or less to taste), 8 oz. water, 8 oz. crushed ice. This is kinda like a creamsicle flavor. 2 scoops chocolate protein powder, 1-2 teaspoons instant coffee, 1-2 teaspoons no sugar added NesQuik or unsweetened cocoa, 1 tsp. vanilla extract, Splenda to taste, 8 oz. water, 8 oz. crushed ice. Blend on high for a frosty mocha drink. I started "doctoring up" my protein drinks so I could stand to drink them. I have gotten pretty good at it over time and now I actually LIKE my protein drinks and look forward to them as a treat! You can come up with almost infinite varieties by using different combinations of SF liquids, extracts, etc. Good luck with your surgery!
