I'm About To Lose It Logo

An obese 50 year old guy takes the plunge into RNY gastric bypass surgery.

Every day I have a protein shake for breakfast to get in half of my day’s recommend protein. After trying all kinds of shakes (and posting them here) I’ve kind of stuck to Premier Protein chocolate as my daily go to shake. I actually like the taste of Fairlife a bit better, but I can buy these in 12 packs at the local WalMart so I just go with them.

I’ve tried a lot of others that I flat out didn’t like. Even within Premier Protein I don’t like most of their flavors. Today I had the cookie dough flavor. While it is okay, it has a weird almost savory taste that throws me off. But I like to mix it up so if nothing else I don’t totally burn out on Premier chocolate. I wish Ghost made pre-made Chips Ahoy shakes as I really love their mix…but I just don’t have the time/patience to make a blender shake every morning (although it’d be cheaper I’m sure.)

Anyway, to that end I’ve been trying to buy four packs of other brands each week to both try other things and to stretch out the 12 pack a bit further before I have to buy another one.

This week I bought a four pace of Pure Protein strawberry and I’m not mad about it. It’s not my favorite or even top three, but it probably is top 5. I think Pure Protein’s strawberry is better than Premier Protein, as far as taste. I can’t find the Pure Protein shakes in anything other than 4 packs locally, but it is a good alternative to mix into my daily shakes from time to time.

I will give it a thumbs up and a gold star.
