    I have used Super Advanced Body Fortress which I like; GNC Amp which is okay; Shakeology was good; and Unjury (which has caused too many gas issues).

    Good luck!

    Super Advanced Body Fortress Whey Protein has creatine in it, so if you take it and wonder why you're putting on extra weight, it is mostly due to water retention. Although, it doesn't really state how much creatine is in it...

    I use Gold Standard 100% Whey double chocolate. Probably the best tasting out there along with Syntha-6.

    I use an organic no sugar added unflavored whey from MRM. I love it because it really doesn't have a flavor and I can add whatever I want and don't get bored half way through the container.

    Good to know. I guess since I'm almost out, I will be switching anyway :)

    I prefer to use either Musclepharm Combat Powder or Fitmiss Delight (the women's range made by Musclepharm)
    They are both packed full of other extra vitamins and goodies, are reasonably filling and very tasty with a good range of flavours so you never get bored. Also the Fitmiss Delight can be used for baking as well, you can make really awesome high protein low calorie muffins etc :P

    Those are links to each of the powders on muscle and strength just because they have all the info along side with a price. no particular reason i chose that website lol.

    Good luck :)

    Optimum Nutrition is the best! I have the double chocolate - pretty tasty, the Cookies & Cream - love it!, and the Vanilla Ice Cream - seriously when mixed w/a little skim milk it tastes just like ice cream! Has a great carb to protein ratio as well.

    Kaizen 100% Natural Whey Isolate Protein Powder -Dark Chocolate. It's pretty good and blends well.

    GNC stuff is pretty horrid.

    I'm using ON right now and can't recommend the choco-pb. It's kind of weird tasting and doesn't mix that well (though in a blender that wouldn't be an issue). Gonna try vanilla next. You can't beat it for price vs. protein content.

    I've tried Jay Robb and it's delicious, though pricey. Would buy it on sale in a heartbeat.

    I used to use muscle milk light but those whey proteins really mess with my stomach. I'm currently using Raw Meal Replacement (Cocoa) (some people cannot stand the taste) but it has the best ingredient list out there. It also does wonders for energy.

    Also it's completely vegan :) (if you're into that lifestyle).

    I also use body fortress, the chocolate peanut butter kind. Has 30g protein per 150cal scoop, which was the best ratio of all I looked at at my local Walmart. The only thing I've used it for since getting it a few weeks ago is mixing it in my oatmeal. Tastes like a mild no bake cookie dessert for breakfast! I will also have to break out the blender and make a chocolate pb banana smoothie one of these days...
    My dad got the muscle milk chocolate protein powder and sweared it tasted so much like cake batter, that must be what they put in the bag hahahaha (he got his from Costco)

    I have been using Dymatize Nutrition Whey-Casein Elite Gourmet Vanilla Creme. I use 1/2 scoop and mix it with 6 ounces of milk or water plus either peanut butter or fresh berries (raspberries/blueberries...), plus about 1/2T of melted coconut oil.

    Hey girly! I have been using Shakeology for 2 years now and I still cant believe how much energy it gives me! Its much more than a protein shake. Nothing compares to it on the market. I understand some people think its too expensive, but if youre serious about nutrition, you should def consider it!! Feel free to friend me if you like! Good luck!

    Optimum Nut is the best. There 100% gold standard Chocolate or Strawberry Bananna are good choices.

    I use 1st phorm. So far I've tried the chocolate peanut butter, ice cream sandwich, and the strawberry milkshake. I love it. I get it from supplement superstores.
