Protein shake

[Grace]

I've just tried the chocolate and nut flavoured one...it's scrummy! a bit like liquid nutella spread!
It's made me very happy!

Oh my, i used to be a chocaholic except for ice cream/cake/drinks which i never used to like! Am glad you're getting a fix though I have a yummy creamy toffee one, in fact i may have one a bit later Enjoy xx

I managed the whole shake in little bits! It was scrummy!

Where did you get this from Charis? I hate the idea of protein shakes but if you recommend that one (and it does sound nice) I will give it a try after surgery.

Hi Karen, I got it from a site recommended on here,

myprotein.co.uk

and I ordered a sample size of all the flavours. I didn't like the raspberry one. I suspect the stronger flavours will be the best as the hide that 'Cambridge diet' taste.

I'll post my opinion of the al as I try them if it will help.

Thanks, it will help

That sounds really yummy!

OK seen them on the site. So is one sample pack one drink? ie 25g is one drink and the big packs, 2.5kg would be 10 drinks?

Have you tried any protein bars at all?

Do u just mix it with LF milk?

One sample pack is 99p! I didn't notice the grams!
But mixed with 250 mls milk it makes a reasonable drink.
250 mls is a lot post-surgery!

I've had to drink it in 2 halves. I wouldn't want it any thicker.
No, I haven't tried th protein bars as I'm still on the puree stage.

I mix it with lactofree milk as I seem to have developed a little bit of a lactose intolerance. You can mix them with water, but I don't think they'd taste as nice.
+, post-op, you need as much protein as you can get really.

Chocolate Mint Protein shake

I tried this yesterday and REALLY tried to make myself drink it as I know I need the protein. But it tasted utterly FOUL!

In my opinion!
I gave up in the end and had a milk shake with a couple of extra spoons of Marvel in instead.

I just ordered some samples of this for post op it works out so much cheaper than slim fast or complan.

25g makes 200ml so the 1kg pouch would make 40 servings for £10 whereas slim fast is 12servings for £6

The only flavour I've liked so far is the choc n nut. But I am very fussy!
