Thanks Lora!!!
I want to thank Lora for recommending the Cytosport Pure Protein Drinks. I tried one today and it was AWESOME! I tried the watermelon and it tasted like drinking a tart jolly rancher. So yummy! It has 40 g protein and 0 carbs and 0 sugar! I finally found a protein drink I like. Thank you so much Lora!
I got them at Vitamin Shoppe but you can also buy them online by the case on the Vitamin Shoppe website. Here is the address: http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/store/en/browse/sku_detail.jsp? id=CY-1101
As with all protein drinks, don't stock up until you've tried them and know if you like them. I hate Cytosport. To me, they have a terrible metallic aftertaste. I tried diluting them with water, crystal light lemonade, etc. and nothing helped. I know Lora loves them, though. Everyone has different tastes.

You're welcome. I'm really glad you like it. I feel bad when I read about people doctoring up the Isopure protein water to make it palatable because I think these taste really good (but I know Kelly disagrees, LOL.)
Some larger GNC stores carry them and they are also available from Amazon in single bottles and cases.
I just bought a case of the Tangerine about 2 weeks ago, but with my kidney stone episode yesterday (I probably have not been drinking enough with the heat) and not eating especially well when the belly pain kicks in, I ordered a case of the Watermelon earlier today so I can get more fluid and more protein without having to force myself to eat when I don't feel well.

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.
I had only tried the watermelon when I posted this. Over the weekend I tried the other 2 flavors and they are very strong. I poured them over ice so that when the ice melted it kind of watered it down. I might try watering them down a little bit. By far my favorite flavor is the watermelon because to me it tasted like drinking a watermelon flavored jolly rancher. The orange one tasted like Tang and I don't care too much for Tang. The tropical one (green) tastes like a pina colada but is very strong.
