action-smiley-065.gif Hi all! I just tried the MOST amazingly tastey protein powder...it's by Designer Whey and you just add it to bottled water...I am currently drinking the Orange/Mango flavor...you mix it with 4-12 oz water (your choice of intensity) and it has 60 cal; 2g carbs; 10g protein...and it is SOOOOOO VERY YUMMERS!!! tongue0022.gif Seriously good...like a treat!

Fyi..if you go to www.DesignerWhey.com you can download a coupon to try these new ProteinPak2go packets for free (well 1 for free) redeemable wherever this is sold...Just thought this was good info and had to pass it on!
Blessings, love and smooches! love0003.gif

She is 82, and was late for a wedding. She saw an opening, and took it..not realizing there were kids in the crosswalk across the street. ~blink~ I will not add here as to what I think her level of competancy is or was...<shaking my head>. I am just grateful that they will be okay...surgery for my oldest <a relatively minor one, tore her acl>, and plastic surgery down the road for my youngest <she has a cut from her eye to her hairline...dermabond on it now..we will see how bad it scars>...but it could have been so much worse. I am just plain straight out grateful right now. angel-smiley-002.gif angel-smiley-002.gif on their shoulders last night...certainly.

I LOVE fruity flavors...but aside from jello...don't get them much because of the sugar factor. This sounds like something that will work for me...and will be making my trip to GNC before my 10% off runs out anyways!

Thanks Amelia...but are ya sure you aren't sick or have a fever...yanno..that whole 'speechless' problem...LOL!

Thanks Amelia. I love fruit and don't eat much because of the sugar. I will take a bottle of water with me and try it right there in the store. That way, if I like it I can buy some and not have to take another trip to town.

So...I'm not sure, but you could alsways try...who knows...well worth the $1.79ish each though...they also sell it in a tub or in a box with so many of the 2GoPaks in each box...kinda like CL to go...let me know what you think about them...blessings!

nature-smiley-008.gif Celadon...hope these are good to you especially since you like fruit...the orange/mango is my fav so far, but the pomegrante is really good too...

action-smiley-066.gif Hi Colleen! Hope you find a flavor you like...

Blessings to all! love0028.gif love0003.gif love0028.gif

action-smiley-066.gif Hello, I am new to protein drinks, so tell me what to look for please. How much protein, how much fat, what's the numbers?



amelia1968
wub.gif The 1 I drink most often is from Wal-mart, Body Fortress brand (I like the Choc and the Vanilla) they both have 26g Protein per 1 scoop (= 8 fl oz ) Fat 2g Carbs 3g Cal 100...this is the #s for the Choc, I think the van is a bit different but not by much...same protein count...hope this helps!

Blessings!

oh this sounds so yummy... I might have to hunt it down!!!

So I downloaded the coupons the other day when Amelia posted this and was all excited to get it today when I was out and about. Turns out that the only GNC that has it (it's a GNC coupon) is no where near me. Nice thing about living in a rural area though. The guy at our local GNC is going to get some from that store tonight and bring it tomorrow for me. So I only have to go a couple of miles to get it. I will let you all know what I think of it. In the meantime, I got a bottle of that new Special K protein water. I don't care much for it. It tastes very powdery. That's why I drink either water by itself or Propel. No powdery aftertaste. I hope this Protein 2 Go lives up to the hype!

Wow these sound great......I have been using Smartforme and they have fruit flavors also and each one of theirs is 15 grams of protein. They were designed for WLS patients. They also have wonderful protein bars and crunchy snacks all of which are 15 grams of protein. I am going to get my coupon and see if I can find the Pomegrante.
amelia1968
Hi all! I just went to the local Vitamin Shoppe and used the 2 coupons...if you will notice there are 2 different bar codes on the coupon and 1 has GNC above it and the other one only has a number...it's supposed to be good anywhere that sells this product. I live in the city and actually went to 2 other herb/vitamin shops (1 was GNC)before going back to The Vitamin Shoppe where I had originally bought the first 3 samples...evidently this product is so new not many of the stores are carrying it...hope you all find that they taste as good as I thought. The orange/mango is my ABSOLUTE fav...pomegrante good but a tiny bit "powdery" and the Ultimate Orange is higher in carbs/lower in protein(I think same cal count 60/ carbs 7/protein7) but I didn't realize it before I purchased it on Friday and the flavor is not as good as the Orange/Mango so I don't plan to purchase it again...the other 2 flavors Choc and Vanilla, I think, didn't sound like they would be good mixed with water...at least not to me....

Have a question for y'all, has anyone ever tried Jay Robb's Whey Protein before? I bought a sample of the strawberry but haven't tried it yet, just curious if anyone else had tried it...I like the thought of using it because it has NO ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS OR SWEETNERS...sweetened with Stevia or Xylitol...

Thanks....Blessings & luv!!!!

Thanks for the info Amelia. I can't wait to get mine tomorrow. You can be sure I will let you know. I agree that I don't want the chocolate or vanilla. I already have a good tasting protein drink in those flavors. I want a good FRUIT flavored protein drink. I hope this will be the one!
amelia1968
action-smiley-065.gif Celadon...I'm excited for you! If you like cl Sunrise Orange you will probably like the Orange/Mango...You may wanna use COLD WATER though cause to me it's not as tastey @ room temp.

Ok, so more info....I just tried the Strawberry Jay Robb....and it was YUMMERS! I mixed 1/2c plain yogurt and 1/2c milk...it had NO artificial strawberry flavor and it actually tasted kinda like dessert...I also chopped up a med size strawbery (fresh from Florida...mmmmm, goood!) and mixed it in...I am really impressed with the taste of this...the counts are: 110 cal/0 fat/1g carb/ 24 g protein....then it can be mixed with the beverage of your choice...milk, water, juice, or yogurt....if you like strawberry and you have not tried this brand you should try it. angel-smiley-002.gif
