Different Protein Shakes??
Not to dis Herbalife cause my friend sells it but there are hundreds of other shakes that are designed for weight loss surgery patients. I'm sure if you google weight loss shakes you will find more than you can ever think of trying. I've only found 2 I really liked so far and those were Pure Protein ready to drink and Click coffee flavor.
I also started on the Premier..it is ok. I bought some unsweetened vanilla almond milk and thinned the Premier with it and it tasted better..not so sweet.
You can get some trial size of the Syntrax protein powder at Vitamin Shoppe. I really liked the choco truffle and the vanilla bean. Took a chance yesterday and bought the big canister of double tuffed cookie...it is yummy and not so sweet. I mix it with the almond milk also.
I really like the unjury chocolate splendor and the vanilla. I also liked the nectar roadside lemonade and fuzzy navel. These are not RTD, I mix them in my blender bottle and put them in my lunch bag with ice packs. So far for the vanilla I have added Carmel syrup, butterscotch pudding mix, peanut butter powder and banana. All were pretty yummy. I also use skim milk to mix my shakes. Unjury and nectr both offer sample packs.
I dislike going to GNC as well. Unjury you get from their website. The sample pack includes two samples of each of their flavors. It is like$28 I think. The chocolate splendor is really good. I mix a scoop of that with 2 tblspoons of PB2 and 10 ounces of skim milk. 36 grams of protein. The syntrax nectar you can also get from the company. Just go to their website and call. You get 12 flavors. I mixed the roadside lemonade with water and added a few frozen strawberries.. Yummy. I mix the fuzzy navel with juice and water... I am not a big stickler on carbs though. I don't drink the juice one every day though...
