Protein shake recomendations pls - WLSurgery.com

JO28172 · 13th February, 2012

If you have a shake I'm curious to see which you use, and the protein content...so many out there...where to start...all I do know is I don't want to build muscles...oh and if it comes in chocolate flavour..all the better! X

I have rich choc slim fast, absolutely gorgeous! Really keeps you going, staves off hunger and 15g protein.x

JO28172 · 13th February, 2012

HoPe*87* · 13th February, 2012

Sorry to butt in but where about's in asda do they sell these? Xx

fizzwoods · 13th February, 2012

In the aisle with all the tablets and slimfast.

HoPe*87* · 13th February, 2012

How have I not seen these! I was there gettin muti vits the other day to. I may need my eyes testing lol xx thanks

TracyBee · 13th February, 2012

Do these shakes taste any better than the Fortimel drinks I had post-op?
I don't have a sweet tooth and found them really hard going and ended up drinking lots of milk to keep my protein intake up.
I'm still struggling to get enough protein so I'm wondering if a few shakes a week (so to speak

) would help.

fizzwoods · 13th February, 2012

They are a larger tub than slim fast, but less portions and either the same price or a little more. I just have Slim fast and mix the flavours. 1 scoop vanilla and 1 scoop banana. Not a big chocolate or strawberry fan. x
