They also have the best selection of protein bars and sell them by the box in addition to individually.

It's called "Carb Countdown" by Hood. It’s an Atkins approved milk. I bought a half gallon of the chocolate and LOVE IT! In an 8 ounce glass, there are 100 calories, 3 carbs (2 are sugar), 12 grams of protein, & 4.5 grams of fat. It’s also higher in calcium than regular milk.

I get my protien from Wal-Mart and it only costs $8.47. It is called AdvantEdge HP Whey Protien - Chocolate flavor. I mix one scoop with 8 oz. of milk. It gives you 20 grams of protien from the mix and additional protien from the milk. I do however have to stop using 2% milk and switch to the Carb Countdown dairy drink because although the protien intake of 90 grams a day (three drinks a day) was great, it increased the carbs to 46 grams (from the milk) which slowed my weight loss. So, try the protien mix with Carb Countdown. It tastes like chocolate milk.

Champion Whey - has great protein

I also use TwinLab CherAmino... 15g protein per 2 tablespoons. It's pre-digested collagen. This I add to 32oz of water (counts towards liquid intake) and I will typically add a package of orange flavored Knox Gelatin (GREAT for hair and nails) mix it up and sip it all afternoon.

GNC has an Amino 222 that has 22g protein per 4 tblspns and it's awsome with Crystal Light Raspberry. I've used that as well.

I only order from www.bariatriceating.com my favorites are: Nectar, Proplete Gold Banana Cream and Elite Cafe _Mocha. The beef jerky is AWESOME too

Having trouble getting in your protein?  I found a new product this week at Longs.  It is called "Lean Protein Bites."  The 1 oz bag has 110 calories, 3 fiber, 7 carbs and 14 grams of protein.  It tastes like cereal (but not cereal) coated with whatever flavor you buy....peanut butter, chocolate, lemon or white chocolate.  Splenda is the sweetener used, along with soy  & whey protein isolate and a few other ingredients that I will let you read on the package.  Anyway, it is a handy take-along source of 14 grams of protein and something to crunch on.  They were about $1.25 a bag. 

 

It's by EAS & it's called "Advant Edge Coffee House" It comes in 3 different flavors I like the _Mocha Latte & Joyce said that she likes the Cappuccino flavor. They also have a Caramel flavor too. it only has 1 gram of sugar & 15 grams of protein & only 3 carbs(1 Impact) & 3 fat grams !! I got it at Albertsons on a bogo sale. They also have it at Safeway & target. Or go to www.eas.com  for more info. It is one of the very few protein drinks that I can stomach. Joyce is so lucky that she likes & can drink almost any of them. Way to go girl!! If  I make my own out of the mixes, I gag. Dr Swartz told me not to mix them in the blender.... only by hand. I have also found good stuff/products & helpful hints on www.bariatriceating.com Good luck to all of the new/newer people & I hope this helps. And remember to drink extra water if you drink caffeine!  not beer!!!
