Topic: RE: Protein Supplements
Hi guys!
Don't overstock on the Boost and Ensure - I have SO MUCH left over that I won't ever be using and feel like I waster my money. :( I figured out early on that mixing the protein powder with skim milk is almost as many grams of protein (9 versus 12) and WAY less calories.
Terri, you will definately have to use the protein powders to get the recommended amount of protein - I still have to have a shake every day. A shake of powder and milk usually gets me 45-50 grams of protein in.
I only now getting to the end of my protein powders - I had a big tub of the Decadent Chocolate Whey Isolate from Costco and also a smaller tub of my favourite - Cafe Brazil (tastes like coffee) - that I got from the Popeye's Nutritional Supplement store at the corner of Newfoundland Drive and Portugal Cove Road.
What worked for me was using Ice Cubes to mix in with my shakes - more like iced smoothies then - and sometimes I add a banana.
(Sorry for being out of touch for so long. I'll try and update more soon."

Ohhh, I thought just drinking the Boost with Protein would be enough
plus taking vitamins.
