Anyone use Protein Powder from Sam's Club?
I have surgery in 2 weeks. Trying to shop around for prices, availability, etc. I came across a protein powder at Sam's Club. Would like to know if anyone has used this and what they thought about it. It is EAS (Energy, Athletic, Strength) 100% Whey Protein, Yes it says isolated. It comes in a 5 lb bag, available in vanilla or chocolate flavors. It has 23 g protein per serving,3 g carbs,2 g fat, 1 sugar for a total of 120 calories per serving. 2 scoops are mixed with 6-8 oz of water, milk or your favorite beverage. As far as I can tell I think that meets all the requirements I have been told.
Would love to know if anyone has tried it, before I buy a 5 lb. bag. Oh and the price is only $29.87. So, the price is definitely very reasonable. I do have a lot of info about ordering on line, etc. and did sample some with my nut, but this would be very convenient.
Thanks for any info you have!

it is a good price but you can get good prices at GNC also. Sign up for the discount card which cost nothing and you can get all kinds of protein for good prices (especially at the beginning of the month). Just remember you may not like or tolerate protein powders as well after WLS. Ask so of the others on here how to get free samples of different kinds and you can figure out what works for you.
Hi,
I got this at Sams Club and I got the chocolate. Read the bag carefully----on the front of the bag it says mix two scoops....but the serving size is ONE scoop. I dont know if they just want you to use more or what. I had also bought a sample pack of shakes from enjoyhealth.com so I have tasted quite a few.
This is my review: LOL!
I like this stuff. I use it EVERY morning! However, by itself it is a bit blah. (in otherwords, mixed with jus****er or milk)....HOWEVER< What I do is make a cup of decaf coffe (my surgeon suggests no caffine.....sigh) and add 1/4 cup of skim milk to it because I found you can NOT mix it into hot coffee (gross things result!). It mixes nicely with a spoon and a nice warm mocha results! I do not even taste the protien AT ALL.
This is how I have been starting my morning every day and I really like it. I did try it in the protien ice cream and it was really icky----just to give you some perspective.
