Let's do a poll: Do you drink protein shakes?

I drink 1 to 2 a day...everday.

3 weeks out tomorrow.....No I do not drink the protien drinks or do my vitamins.  .....*shudders and hides under rock* I just can't get them down yet.

me too.  Make room under that rock!

Made some room for you :)

I'm just under 1 year out & -YUK-no, I don't drink protein shakes. I WANT to like them, but, YUK, no way! YUK! YUK! YUK! I tried every single sample from Vitalady, except a couple of the plain vanillas & chocolates. I've tried them w/milk, I've tried them w/water. I tried holding my nose while drinking them, I tried adding less fluid & doing them as a shot, I've tried them in the blender, I bought a handheld blender, still-YUK!! 

I don't even like flavored coffee(cream only, no sugar) nor do I drink hot chocolate or flavored ice cream shakes, except on VERY rare occasions-like maybe once every 10 yrs. I'm a vanilla kinda gal but I find that all of the vanilla flavors taste like either banana or like vanilla pudding-who DRINKS pudding? YUK! I know....I have issues......I'm working on it.....

At least one shake (sometimes two per day)
Recipe:

2 scoops of Champion Pure whey stack -chocolate
Heavy Whipping cream
water or milk or coffee
Icecubes...

I just increased to two a day from one in an attempt to protein load for plastic surgery in September. My albumin was low and I am hoping this will help kick into the levels VitaLady recommends!

I really love the Cookies and Cream variety of Champion Pure Whey Protein Stack powder! I just bought my second 5 lb tub! I mix it with Hoods Calorie Countdown and it tastes really yummy!

double scoop shake with coffee every morning with about 50-60 grams protein

I am pre-op (started my 14 day protein shake diet today) but I have been drinking protein shakes for years. They make a world of difference with my fibromyalgia - I have a lot less muscle pain and headaches. I also have TMJ, so shakes are less painful than steak.

I will definitely be making protein shakes a regular part of my post-op lifestyle.
