Hi Suzanne, have you tried the Muscle Milk from Smart and Final? It's very high in protein and it taste wonderful it's also Lactose Free. Calories if I can remember are about 270 but if you're replacing a meal it's great. Flavors are Banana Cream, Strawberry, Chocolate. There's also the flavorings that I was introduced to in my support group by Torani and they're sugar free. (Purchase at Smart and Final Also) You can add them to any protein mix and it makes a world of difference. I was just banded on May 27, 2008, but I did alot of experimenting and attended the support group before surgery a few times. Good Luck. :biggrin2:

I'm with you Zanny, I do enjoy my morning berry flavoried American Whey w/frozen berries and 1/4 cup of Fage Yogurt, but would love to switch up from time to time. Have something cool and clean tasting. I've done some research on line and came across the web site for Isopure bottles, I have'nt tried any so can't say if they are good or not. Sounds great the way they descripe them on the site  but then they want to make a sale. The ingredients are listed as Supplement facts - Apple Melon: Serving size 20 ounces Calories 160, fat 0, carbs 0, sugar 0, protein 40 grams Other Ingredients: Filtered Water, Ion-Exchange Whey Protein Isolate, Sucralose, FD&C Red #40, Malic Acid, FD&C Blue #1, Polysorbate 80, Natural and Artificial Flavors No Preservatives, No Carbs, Lactose Free, Fat Free, Aspartame Free
So did a little research on Ion Exchange Whey Protein Isolate and found this site Whey Protein Powder - CFM, Ion Exchange Whey Protein Information Very Very Very interesting reading. Think I'll just stick to my powder. |

It tastes like it has a bit of pond scum in there, just gross.

In our household we always make Crystal Light half-strength. (One little tub per gallon of water.) That said, I have had good success mixing Unjury Strawberry Sorbet with several different flavors of CL - Peach tea, Sunrise Orange, Strawberry Kiwi, etc. We also like to use the Wal-Mart brand of drink mixes and I like to mix the Unjury with the cherry flavor.

Since I couldn't/wouldn't give up my one cup of vanilla nut coffee each morning, I decided to mix it with my protein powder. I make a pot of coffee each MOnday and refrigerate it. Each morning I take about 8 oz of coffee, one sweet and low and a scoop of protein power and put in a large measuring cup. I then blend with my immersion blender, pour over ice and enjoy it. I bought my whey protein powder online in vanilla cake flavor and chocolate fudge - some days I use half of each and it is great. It is my treat for the day. |
