Protein Drinks

Thread Starter  

FINALLY........I found a mixture that I can stand to drink!!!!!!
I mixed 1 scoop of Unjury unflavored protein powder, 2 spoonfuls of Nesquick no sugar added powdered drink mix and 8 oz skim milk and it was actually good. It smelled a little funny but was great. (Also two cubes of ice)
All of the protein drinks have been gross, and I wasted so much money on them. Maybe I can stick with this.

Hope everyone had a great holiday!!!!

**I found Unjury to be particularly nasty. You might try Six Star. You can get it at Walmart...

Good luck!

They are all nasty. There is no getting around it. I am at post-op day 13 so I have been drinking them for almost a month now. My wife has tried making them interesting by adding various berries and mango but ultimately its still nasty and one has to just grin and bear it.

Don't like this plateau very much!

I drink a shake that I absolutely love...

Designer Protein Powder (chocolate)
Ice
Light Soy Milk
2 Tbsp FF Cottage Cheese
2 Pkts Equal
(and sometimes I add a teaspoon of low sugar peanut butter)

Blend all ingredients well...

It comes out like a shake, it's PACKED with protein and it tastes great. (P.S. - I don't like cottage cheese so for anyone else who doesn't, note that you can't taste the cottage cheese in it but it adds nicely to the shake).

Hope this helps someone...
