I've never came across a protein shake that taste good.

Btw, I would recommend the vegan ones too

I have never tried protein shake before so I don’t know how it’s supposed to taste like. I guess I’m gonna try to put some almond milk in it and see.

I've bought ON whey protein powder before, the taste is good.

I guess it entirely depends on how much you spent to get what kind of quality.

so far i've tested quite a few and ON whey taste the best if u mix it with milk/almond milk.

Some brand taste so horrible i hold my nose and just gulp it down asap

May be you can try nutrilite protein + bodykey as breakfast. thats my breakfast everyday.

Can share the links? Do you mix anything?

I realise that it's the stevia in the HEAL proteins. The stevia makes them taste freaking weird. I mixed with Soy Milk now. Even the Pea Protein one tastes weird and i realise that it's the same taste that's making it horrible. It's the damn stevia.

my advice is to stick with "normal" flavor, chocolate, coffee those are fine. The "fancier" the flavor is the weirder it's going to taste due to all those artificial flavoring they use.

Personally i prefer chocolate whey mixed with almond milk, quite an enjoyable taste.

Without proper training all the protein you take is just extra calorie. I wished if we could bulk up by just drinking protein  innocent.gif

No i don't wanna bulk up. I do exercise minimum 3 hours per week as long as i can fit into my schedules. But i don't wanna bulk up.

Yesterday i took protein shake, about 100 calories only cause i mixed with water. Can last entire night until next morning. So it's okay for me. biggrin.gif

Just add banana and skim milk then in your shake.

I dont drink miik & whey protein  Diarrhea is dangerous
I drink natural soy shake zero sugar

I just calculated. Adding soy milk or any milk itself will only make the protein shake more or less 300-350 calories. Which is like super a lot. I guess I will just have to chug them with water.

SKIM milk has only 83 calories.

Low fat is 102 calories.

per how many ML?

the protein sachet needs about 350ML of water. So if it's 83 calories per 100ML.

350ML is easily 290 calories + protein about 150 calories?

So the total is easily 440 calories. At that point, just buy a breakfast burger from McD. xD

Any reason why Oat is not in the menu? To me it can replace breakfast and last for a while, and if you feel its too blant can try add something else like Milk, Milo etc.

Usually I just add hot water, occasionally some milk powder from Omega Plus
