Protein Shakes for Girls?

OP is dumb.

Fat burners don't burn fat.

Try caffeine for a thermogenic effect and don't be a ***** about it. Ephedrine is also a nice appetite suppressant.

Overall, you're a girl. You only need like 60 grams of protein a day (ASSUMING YOU LIFT) and whey protein has nothing over any other type of protein except for it's absorption time, which is useless information for you because I'm going to safely assume you're a novice.

Have a nice day.

I just bought "Lean 1" by Nutrition 53. It seems to get pretty good reviews--it has some Hoodia and green coffee bean extract added in, along with fish oil and CLA.

Raspberry Ketones DO help, if you're working out regularly. They enhance your results. I'd just steer clear of anythign that isn't pure ketones--keep the caffeine and all the other garbage out of it. I've never tried that particular brand you mentioned, but I've tried ketones and they truly did help speed up the fat loss. I'm starting them again today myself.

Thank you!!!! The first decent reply. Some people are just damn right rude.
Thank you for your help - I really appreciate it x

So almost every other person on here is telling you they are a waste of money and you choose the one person that supports it. If you only wanted people to agree with you and tell you they worked, you should have clarified that in your OP.

Lets get one thing straight - I said thank you for the first decent reply. Sorry...... I forgot that meant I agreed! No honey, they are simply 2 different things. Just because they work for 1 person doesn't mean to say they will work for everyone! I simply wanted information on them. If they are a waste of money, then fine but I will continue to take them until I have finished them and if I dont see any difference or feel any different, I wont be purchasing more. Now, is this ok with you?

It wasn't the "1st decent reply" though. That would have been the very first reply you got.

My wife lights some vanilla-scented candles and plays soft music before she makes herself a protein shake. She'll put fruit and stuff in the vitamix with it. Usually she drinks it reclining, wearing some warm fuzzy socks, and it always looks to be in soft focus.

I mix mine with as little water as possible until it is about the consistency of custard, or perhaps flan if you're ethnic, at which point I choke it down, grimace, and slam my fist on the table. Loud heavy metal plays and I bulge my eyes out and describe things as being "extreme" or "massive" or "chutney".

Otherwise the actual powder is the same.

Dude there is so much wrong with your reply but I highlighted my favorite.

So the 150+ grams of protein i will be injesting today is too much?

Winner.

Hey everyone.

Any idea's on what protein shake to go for?

I am also wondering if anyone has tried Raspberry K2 Weight Loss Supplements? I started these on Monday. You should take 2 in the morning and 1 in the afternoon. I have started out on 1 in the morning and 1 in the afternoon to let my body adjust a bit. So far I don't feel any different. Any success stories on them? Are they rubbish? As much information any of you know would be greatly appreciated.

Any recipes for smoothies also? How often do you drink them as they do have a lot of sugar in them?

Any answers will be greatly appreciated x

Isopure for protein powder.

Weight loss supplements are usually rubbish.

For smoothies I typically use 1/2 cup frozen strawberries, 1/2 cup frozen blueberries, 2-3 cups spinach leaves, 1/2 vanilla greek yogurt. This recipe makes more than one serving.

Jamie Eason has a new line designed specifically for women (can't figure out what the difference is) through Labrada.com called Lean Body for Her. It looks pretty expensive, but comes in a pretty pink package.

My gym (an all women's gym), gives out samples of this when you join. I don't know about it being for men/women/dogs, but damn it's tasty. But it is really expensive -- with the discount I get at the gym, It's still $40+ for a box of 20 servings. The taste thing is really important to me in my protein shake or else I won't drink it. I looked on Amazon and they also make one called Labrada Pro 8. You get 45 servings for the same price as 20 of the Lean Body for Her and it tastes exactly the same. The only difference is it's about 30 calories higher, but that's negligible for me.

I just bought "Lean 1" by Nutrition 53. It seems to get pretty good reviews--it has some Hoodia and green coffee bean extract added in, along with fish oil and CLA.

Of allllll the posts here THIS is the one you're going with??

Good luck to you.

Excuse me? I am not going to reply to everyone - but I can sure as hell tell you that was a decent reply compared to some other cheeky people. I thought this was about support etc? Just as *****y as facebook! GROW UP.

I knew there was a reason I denied your friend request. Thanks for solidifying that for me.

Yeah, not very inspired to help in the future. To any who are lurking, ketones do not enhance your weight loss. As others have said, it is a gimmick. Weight loss is dependent on eating at a deficit so focus on that. Include exercise (my recommendation would be both strength/resistance and cardio) and you've got the winning combination. :bigsmile:

ETA: Protein shakes for women are the same as for men. If it is advertised for women, it is more than likely a marketing scheme to justify a high price. I've heard Trutein is great, but it's a little too pricey for me. I use Optimum Nutrition Gold Whey Isolates. Even though lactose intolerant, this protein works really well for me and doesn't mess with me at all. It's 120cals and 24g of protein a scoop (31-32g).

I usually go with the hippy hippy shake and whatever protein powder is on sale.

For the other, I am a bit of a tightwad, so I don't like to waste money. If I really wanted to try them, I would raid my mom's medicine cabinet. She tries it all. She gets about half-way through a bottle, realizes they don't work and goes on to the next snake oil on the market. Total pounds lost: 1, unless she eats, then 0. Not exactly scientific, but meh. Neither is all the stuff saying they work.

FROM YOUR PROFILE

I've tried pills, patches, shakes and injections. Everything worked for a bit, then bounced right back. For nearly 20 years I've been trying fad diets and supplements

JUST STOP
