Guest guest Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 - Check out www.vitalady.com. She has a gazillion types of proteins and flavors to choose from. You can even buy single serving samples so you can try and see which ones you like. My husband like Champion Nutrition Banana Scream. I am a Champion Nutrition Chocolate person. We both mix them ONLY with water. No milk at all. Hope this information helps. Tina (jelly bean toes) & Sheriff too!! Protein Questions for the Experts Hi, I am 15 mos. out down -160 and am 20lbs. from goal. I had RNY 100cc bypassed. I am 5'6 " . If all of this helps. I need to start the protein shakes. I know I should of been doing it along time ago but it is time to start on the band wagon. What I need to know is the following: I don't like Chocolate what is the best brand of protein shake to buy? How many shakes should I use? Do the calories count towards the 1000 cal. a day my Dr. says I need? Do you eat as well as do the shakes? How many carbs should I have? How muuch sugar grams per meal? How many cal. should the shakes be per serving? If you could answer these for me that would be great.. I have to make the right shake decisions because I am a single mom and on very low income. Thank you all for all your help in upstate NY Homepage: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Graduate-OSSG Unsubscribe: mailto:Graduate-OSSG-unsubscribe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 , Yes, go to vitalady.com and order samples that sound good. ALSO, if you don't belong to the Protein group at yahoo, please check it out. I believe the database or files sections has surveys where we voted for our favorite flavors. There is a lot of info. in the archives also. Good non-chocolate flavors are Banana Scream by Champion Nutrition; and the Nectars by Syntrax. A lot of people love vanilla and " doctor " them up w/syrups. One is available at Costco called Pro-Rated. But, go to the yahoo group too for great info. Many posters from here are there also. www.OSSG-Protein-subscribe If that doesn't work, go to yahoo groups home and search. Questions: 1. 2 or more a day @30 gr. each 2.Don't know abt. calories. I don't count them. Make good choices such as protein, non refined carbs, veges and a little fruit. 3.Yes, eat as well as shakes to get a well-rounded diet. The shakes will fill you up also and help you avoid refined carbs and sugar. 4.Carb grams-I'm not sure. Sugar - single digits is safest. 5.Mix the shakes w/water--not milk. The shakes Vitalady offers are the best in the calorie dept. I never count calories, so I don't know. Vitaladies website has a wealth of info. on it to help you. Good Luck!

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Diane, just a reminder that we are not allowed to promote members businesses on list. It's an easy rule to forget, since so many of us are on both this and the Protein list, but it's led to far too many flame wars on here. You can, however, email the person privately with the suggestions. Thanks, in NJ C-Moderator ********************** > , > Yes, go to vitalady.com and order samples that sound good.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Just a reminder, folks, that we can not promote members businesses here on the Grad list. Here's a quote from our home page: >>Under no circumstances may anyone promote commercial products in which they, or other list members, have a personal financial stake. Under no circumstances may anyone detract from commercial products in which another list member has a personal financial stake.
