    I use ON Extreme Milk Chocolate. I must be the only one who prefers it to the Double Rich Chocolate. If you look online and get it in a 5 lb tub or 10 lb bag, you can usually find a pretty good deal on it. If you do buy a brand/flavor you don't like, another way of masking the taste is adding a little pudding mix to it (sugar free or regular, depends on your macros/calories).

    I just bought a 5lb tub of the double rich chocolate, it's incredible.

    Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard whey is by far my favorite so far. I either can't find a powder with better nutrition, or it's a lot more expensive... every flavor I've tried has been good, even the ones I didn't enjoy too much (french vanilla creme, but it's GREAT in coffee).

    I wish I could find a protein powder that was 100% soy free. Even the whey powders have soy in them... Any suggestions?

    As others have mentioned, Optimum's 100% Whey is sort of the standard for fast-acting protein which is what I have as well. I also incorporate a scoop of casein protein by ON as well for more of a slow-absorbing protein as well. High quality products.

    I alternate between two Swedish brands, Star Nutrition Whey 80 and Charlotte Perrelli's Fit & Smart. Both come with coffee flavour. These two are the only ones I can drink without gagging. Fruit powders taste like puke and chocolate ones taste like, well, chocolate flavoured puke.

    I use the RAW protein. Many protein shakes contain a host of harmful chemicals. Whatever you choose, check out the ingredients and make sure you're not poisoning your body.

    I'm going to preface this post by saying if there is a good topic already about this (which I'm sure there is!), please feel free to simply direct me to that post!!

    Some people can have a bowl of cereal and berries for breakfast and be fine. Unfortunately, I am not one of those people. I need 2 eggs and turkey sausage if I want to be functional. I need my protein! So I'm looking for other sources of good protein besides always eating eggs.

    I've heard wonderful things about Shakeology, unfortunately I can't afford that.. So what protein/shake powders are your favorite and what do you recommend?

    Avoid the Wal-Mart whey.... it's made poorly and is loaded with fillers.

    I personally use Dymatize ISO (almost pure protein, and low calories), Cellucor Cor-Fetti (Great if you like cake batter), and Myofusion Cookies & Cream.

    I avoid Optimum Nutrition because of how watery it is.

    I have tried Shakeology and it is very chalky. I didn't like it. I really like Cellucor, cake batter and molten chocolate. I also like Body Fortress chocolate peanut butter. I make them with unsweetened almond milk.

    I like the protein works. I have the banana and strawberry and cream flavorus.

    You can buy them on amazon and they also do sample sizes whiche helped me figure out which ones I liked.
