For those of you that can't do dairy because of Lactose becareful with these shakes. I tried one yesterday and today I am sick as a dog. That is the only thing that I did different than most days.

The shake still has milk in it and says lactose free, but my body still can't handle it.

I gave up all dairy about 2 months ago and the way I am feeling right now. I remember why I gave it up. I hate the lactose sickness. So I won't be doing that again.

    Yeah...I am in the same boat. I have several in my cupboard that are collecting dust.

    If you are not allergic to eggs try the egg white protein powder. I have not had any problems with that!

    Edited...Because I thought you were posting that GNC had a Lactose free one that works. :blushing:

    Shakeology by Team Beachbody may be an alternative. It's not cheap, but there is no dairy in it an it's full of great foods.
    I have more info on it if you would like to know more.

    I used to like shakeology until they changed the formula towards the end of last year. For some reason, I can tolerate the after taste. Tried it with different fruits, PB etc. Last time I had in February, I got sick from it. Now I used one scoop of the meal replacement protein from BB with one scoop of egg protein. It has been working so far.
