SHAKES!!! (drinks)

Right Size Smoothies. Several differnent flavors, great recipes, only 110 calories. I've been having for breakfast and lunch for couple weeks, and their great

Most protein shakes have between 120-150 calories. Not sure how much lower cal you want.

I make my own with Designer Whey protein powder (French Vanilla or Chocolate), ice, a little low cal juice or unsweet almond milk and fruit or PB with Vitamix/blender (generally around 200-230 calories. For a shake and go I love Trutein (www.bodybuilding.com) with water and crushed ice in a shaker cup. Flavors like Cinnabun and Choc dipped banana help :-) They are only 115-120 cals so not a meal replacement but do help me feel full (snack and post workout) Add a banana or other healthy carb and it would be a meal replacement.

Shakeology is gross and to expensive. FYI. Just have protein shake and or fruit/yogurt smoothie!

to each their own... Shakeology is expensive because it works... it works because it comes with your own personal fitness coach who monitors your meal plan. I would never push it on somebody who didn't want it though.... I only want people to drink it who will do the WORK that comes with being in shape and living that lifestyle.. anything else is just bad advertising.

I am very sorry if your experiences weren't positive.. I personally have never had that feedback from my clients. Best of luck in the path you choose.

I like Body Fortress. It is very reasonable. Trying Pure Protein right now....only 3 g carbs 25 g protein. The flavor might be a little better but more expensive and you have to use more. I always get Vanilla & mix it with fruit.

Cambridge Diet shakes and soups --they 're also in the MFP food database-- not that expensive. 1 can has 15 servings ( and is about $24-25)-- so 5 days (3 shakes per day) and the good thing is 100% of daily vitamins/ nutrients in 3 servings...

I have been using eas advantage shakes for over 4 years 110 calories/18grams protein they are good but I have found a better protein shake reccomended by hospital staffs and docors go to Unjury Medical Protein.com read about them and try the sample packets. They taste wonderful it is a whey protein and 21 grams of protein, mixes with water milk in your coffee. try it see for yourself I love them have swiched over from my eas advantage and I am melting away gracefully.

really expensive premium shakes are kind of a rip off imo (shakeology, or anything aimed at women). go with a tasty plain whey - chocolate or vanilla. they have high protein, low fat and carbs, low calories, mix into milk for something tasty. my favourite it 2 scoops of chocolate blended with some milk and ice.

Well, as somebody who pays mortgage, student loans, truck, wife's car, day-car, medical insurance.. by being great...not just good... at "holding peoples' hand" I kind of resent that. I'm not going to be nasty about it, because I really do hope that all of you reach your fitness goals, However, I KNOW that I can get that done for anybody... any-body. Yet, I will not come on here and bash another product or profession.

Again, I have nothing against trainers. I'm sure you help keep a lot of people motivated and on track and you're clearly passionate about what you do. I respect that. I just know a lot of people who think that's the only way to ever be fit, though it's not. I'm sure that you can help anybody reach their goals.. because ANYBODY can do it with the right motivation! (With or without a trainer/overpriced fitness products)

To an above poster, What's a good one that includes vitamins? I was at gnc today they had one that had a multi in it. Guy said it was tastier than gnc whetbolic amp 60(nasty) I miss my shakeology. If it was only $70/mo I'd buy it again, but just can't swing the price. Nor can I remember the one I'm prob going back for tomorrow at gnc. It was in a silver container.

No idea on the vitamin front, I personally just eat my fruits and veggies then take a multi vitamin at the end of the day for good measure. Shakes for me are usually when I haven't had enough protein and just want to chug something and be done with it, or when I don't feel like a full meal for lunch. Whey + berries or bananas / multi vitamin = 2-3x cheaper per month than hyped up stuff like shakeology. To each their own tho, I know it tastes really good.

MUSCLE MILK 100 CALORIE CHOCOLATE SHAKES. low cal, some vitamins and potassium, and its lactose free. i looove the stuff. it totally satisfies my chocolate milk craving and its perfect for recovery.

Does anyone here know of any good shake mixes or powders or whatever to take?
I don't want the ones you drink after working out with a bunch of calories. (P90x anyone??)

I want a shake mix that makes you feel full. Kind of like a meal replacer. And low on cals.
(does that even exist!?!?)

UMP cookies and cream is AMAZING.. low calories and low sugars!! I love it!! Its great for women

I like the Jillian Michaels Triple Chocolate protein shakes. Very tasty. I like to mix in some yogurt or peanut butter for some flavor variations.

My firm beleif is that you get what you pay for with most things. Protein is no exception. I'm not even gonna continue or start an argument, but research what you are actually putting into your body.. The same goes for the advice you get on here.. (It's free and they don't fact-check) Myself included... I am giving free advice in an area that I work in professionally, because it is a noble thing to do, and doesn't hurt me from a marketing aspect. However, I have read some terrible advice on this site from people who probably meant well. I guess what I'm saying is... No matter what your method.. research it, and get advice from credible people... If those people are on line.. ask them follow up questions.. message them, make sure they are not just throwing out BS.. Good luck to everybody. #endthetrend
