Protein Powder

I use Garden of Life, Raw Protein. 80 calories, 17 grames of protein. I blend it with ice, water, frozen berries, and some other fruit if I have it. It can be a tad powdery, but it makes me feel full, and has no milk, whey or soy. If you try it, let me know what you think. :happy:

I love this one too ^^....I buy mine from Amazon. I blend mine w/Almond milk. Very good :-)

I'm going to be buying protein powder tomorrow, for the first time, and I was wondering if anyone had good suggestions?

Lower calories and lower sugar are preferable... and probably some kind of chocolate flavor, as I tend not to enjoy any fruit flavored things.

I will be blending the powder into smoothies (ice & light soy milk ..possibly with a banana and/or peanut butter at times) so powders that don't taste granular when blended would also be great. (I won't be mixing directly into milk/water because that grosses me out!)

Thanks!

Body Fortress products sit around 15$ at walmart with 130 calories a scoop and 26g of protein. so good!

I would avoid soy (google its possible effects on men) and casein is kinda expensive and probably un-needed.

I usually get the cheapest stuff online, or at walmart. The odd time I get a 2-5lb tub for like $10. It's been awhile though.

I used it for weight-loss and found cooking it was a great way to make snacks to keep me from eating junk between meals.

Use it in recipes (cookies, pancakes) instead of flour, and you'll lower calories and increase nutrients.

Again, it's just a 'supplement' but I like the fact that it's the same amount of calories, etc per scoop. And it's a really quick, really easy way to have a snack.

Also, there's dozens of ways to change/alter the flavor, so you don't get sick.

One of my favorite things is adding cottage cheese + sweetner to a smoothie, it gives it a cheesecake taste.

I have found great success with Body by Vi that has a tri-sorb protein. It is only 90 calories and has less than 1 g of sugar. For more information you can go to http://time2renew.bodybyvi.com/. It tastes amazing!!

i tried body fortress super advanced whey protein in vanilla and chocolate. i think i like the chocolate better. they have it at kroger and cvs - it's $21 for 2 lbs, i think.. oh and 140 cals, 23 g protein, 3 carbs (i think!)

second this....available at walmart for $14.88

Yes this one is delicious and you can't beat the price! I buy mine at wal mart as well.
