Along with a certain phone company being run by satan, I have decided that he is also the creator of that horrible after taste in protein shakes. On my journey towards WLS I decided last month that while I am waiting for surgery, now would be the time to find a protein shake or two, more if I was so lucky, that I can tolerate. I have tried many brands, and many flavors. Funky after taste I have learned is par for the course, some much worse than others, but none that I really thought, "Wow I can drink this everyday for at least two weeks."
As fate would have it, I stumbled upon my answer in a dream. Yes, you read that right a dream. Flavorless whey protein powder seems to be the way to go for me. I mix one heaping scoop with my favorite Crystal Light. There is still a slight flavor, and you can't get around the smell....but so far it is the protein shake I can handle.
Next experiment.....no-sugar added Chocolate Nesquick, skim milk, and flavorless whey protein, as I am still looking for something tolerable in the chocolate family.
I'll have to let you know how that goes...until then it is bottom's up to my protein enhanced Crystal Light.
