  • If you like International coffees here is one that my best friend uses and she has lost over 40lbs. I taught it to her.

    1 tsp of chai International Coffee sugar free
    1 scoop of vanilla protein (designer whey GNC or Vanilla Torte Nectar)
    4 oz of Soy Milk or Skim Milk
    4 oz of Water or Ice
    1 tbsp of Chia Seeds - keeps you full for 5 hours
    4 oz of Greek Plain/Vanilla Yogurt

    if you want it stronger add extra tsp of Chai International Coffee powder.

    4 oz of Naked Green Machine
    1/2 cup of Ice
    1 scoop of Vanilla or plain protein powder
    1 tbsp of Chia Seeds
    4 oz of plain yogurt.

    Tastes like Fruity Milkshake -

    scoop vanilla protein powder, 1/2 c orange juice or a whole orange (peeled), 1/2 c water, ice as needed ....like an orange creamscilce :)

    This is awesome! I have done this before and it totally tastes like an orange creamsicle. And I LOVE creamsicles. I have to cut back on the OJ though as I didn't try it with 1/2 cup.

    Thanks everyone, I'm going to try all of these. I just want something more filling, which is why I use bananas (plus they are turning brown) but I'm tired of my shakes being not so tasty!

    have you tried freezing the banana. I had almost the same shake as you this morning but used a frozen banana and vanilla coconut milk for sweetness. the frozen banana adds a creamyness

    edit to add i also added a serving of protein powder which makes it thicker and sweeter

    I have, and the frozen banana takes DAYS to chop up in the blender. I'll freeze the ones I have left and try it tomorrow. I'm also going grocery shopping tonight to pick up lots of frozen fruits! lol


    I smash mine up in a ziplock and flatten it in the freezer so it's frozen but not very thick. Before I toss them in the blender you can even break it up a bit just by bending the baggie.
    I make smoothies for my son with the frozen bananas, milk, and a squirt of chocolate syrup. I call it a Monkey Shake and he loves it. More of a treat than a meal though.
  • I actually have a large list of yummy/filling shakes my husband and I drink. I would be happy to send them to you. My husband is a fitness professional, so as you can imagine he needs something filling. He enjoys my vanilla protein powder, with a scoop of fiber,,Almond or rice milk, a packet of organic oatmeal, and 3/4 cup of frozen mixed berries, I use chocolate protein powder in mine. I also enjoy chocolate protein powder, almond milk, banana, and tablespoon of almond butter. These shakes fill me up and help me fill up faster at my next meal. :) Hope these help.
