    I'M CERTAINLY THERE RIGHT WITH YOU....AS I AM DOING HIGH PROTEIN, LOW CARBING. (ONLY USING THE GOOD CARBS, I.E. BROCCOLI, CAULIFLOWER, GREEN BEANS, AND ETC......)

    NO FLOUR/NO SUGAR ...AFTER 65 YEARS, I HAVE FINALLY REALIZED THAT BOTH OF THOSE SET ME OFF ON COMPULSIVE EATING........UGH...

    SO COUNT ME IN....:flowerforyou:

    I bought some vanilla protein powder recently and have started having protein smoothies and adding some to my Chobani (already packed with protein). Even added some to my coffee this morning.

    Thanks for the tip!

    I bought some plain Chobani and have Chocolate Malt flavored Protein Powder, I could add together. How was the consistency? Was it difficult to get the protein powder to dissolve nicely?

    The consistency was fine - couldn't even tell there was added powder in it. I thought about getting some plain Chobani and chocolate protein powder, too. Great minds..... :)

    I read somewhere that adding protein powder to hot liquid can make the consistency really weird. It was okay adding it to your coffee?
