I am getting ready to place my order for the free sample pack from Chike.  Does anyone else use this product and does it have that nasty smell of vitamins?

Looking to boost my protein as I need it in another form other than just food.

Thanks for your responses.

No, sorry.....However, today my protein intake is primarily from food.  Believe me, once you're far out, you'll be able to EAT!

When I was at your stage, I drank Pure Protein, Muscle Milk Light, Isopure, and BodyFortress.  Sorry I was no help but glad to share my experience.

Gus,

You really are helping with your comments/experience.  I so appreciate all of your input.

Since my coffee is never a full cup at home or at the office I decided against anything to mix with coffee and went with more fruity type stuff.

I just ordered some Nectar variety packet and some Inspire in the summer melon flavor.

I drink water and crystal light all day or cranberry juice.  I have had the Nectar fuzzy navel and I did not mind the smell.  The taste is not a problem, it's the smelling of all the vitamins etc.  Reminds me of taking my pre-natal vitamins.  Ask Anna, she will tell you her pre-natal vitamins stink, LOL

So let's see how this goes.

Thanks
Annette

I did try the Chike samples. The banana was good. The others were OK. I never found the right combo of powder to liquid however. They were too thick for me. I am now using Muscle  Milk and it is really easy. Also, can get them at the store so they are pre-made. So much easier.

Good luck. I like the fruit flavors as well and used crystal light. Now I am sensitive to the sweetness. Let us all know how the Nectar goes down.

Hi Linda,

I tried the Muscle Milk this morning Vanilla Creme light.  Really enjoyed it.  When I leave work I am going to purchase a couple more until I go to the market.  They are great for me as breakfast or a snack.  I might buy a chocolate but the calories are much higher :(  We'll see....

As for the Nectar, at one or two of the LB coffee's there were other ladies that were drinking some.  I had a sip and seemed to be just fine.  They were drinking the fuzzy navel and it tastes just like tang.  I am however looking very much forward to receiving my products. 

I'll keep you posted regardless.

Annette

I love Chike! I have one every day for breakfast. I mix 3 scoops to 16 oz. of a combination of ice and water and put it through the blender.

(They tell you to do 2 scoops and 7 oz. of water, but the other works better for me.)

I like Orange Creme the best. It tastes like a Dreamsicle! I like the Banana also. The vanilla is okay but I never take it plan. I put SF Torani Syrups into it or a banana. (Though I didn't start with the bananas and other fruit in the shakes until I was close to goal weight.)

I'm a fan of Chike too - it's really delicious & smells good too!  I think Chike smells like cake mix (I actually enjoy the smell when I open my tub to make my drinks).  It also doesn't have a funky aftertaste, thick texture or chalkiness like some other protein powders.

My favorite flavors of Chike are banana & vanilla with chocolate running close behind.  I usually mix my Chike with water - sometimes I use skim milk, light soy milk or almond milk to change it up.  I also add Chike to smoothies.  I especially like strawberry Chike with fresh/frozen strawberries, ice & skim milk or light soy milk.  It tastes just like summer :)

Hope you enjoy your samples!
