Have any of you guys done protein drinks with just some almond milk and PB2? I am lactose intolerant so I bought a vegan protein powder, which tastes absolutely disgusting! I used to drink it when I worked out a lot, but I forgot how bad it tastes. I tried to make a drink this morning with frozen berries, almond milk and the powder and it was disgusting. I am thinking just almond milk and PB2 might be the way to go.
The powder tastes like vanilla plant food, so nasty!
My stomach doesn't handle the whey protein as well. I have been using Ultimate Muscle Protein (UMP) and it is fantastic. The chocolate is pretty damn good, especially with almond milk.I don't drink energy drinks or much soda, I pretty much just drink water all the time. That's not my issue, food is my issue. I was hoping to include a protein shake after my workout, but I can't do the whey because it is dairy and the vegan stuff is so gross. I tried egg white protein once, and that wasn't bad, but wasn't as good for you as the vegan one.
I blended it with some mixed berries but it was still so gross. I think I just forgot how bad it was. I will have to give it another try.
Morgan, I can't comment on the protein shakes, but my wife has made me some fantastic protein bars that I use as a snack or after a workout. About 100 calories and 6.2g of protein and tastes great. It is peanut butter, honey, oats, and protein powder. We use the whey protein powder from Target but I imagine you could sub in any powder. I can send you the recipe if you want.I don't drink energy drinks or much soda, I pretty much just drink water all the time. That's not my issue, food is my issue.

Which brand did you buy? I can handle most milk products, but for some reason any whey protein is a recipe for a stomachache for me. I've had to switch to the vegan stuff - it absolutely takes a while to get used to, and you need to add other flavors to it. For that reason, I only buy the chocolate one, or add berries to the vanilla and blend.
Also - for what it's worth, I tried the lactose free whey protein, and had the same issues.

I need to find a protein powder that doesn't taste like dirt first haha, but thanks!
Nice work. I was shocked I lost this week.. Thursday and Friday weren't great for me, but I think the rest of the week must have made up for it.
This is the one I use: https://www.sunwarrior.com/store/warrior-blend-chocolate-500g.html - the whey isolates are a _little_ better for me than some of the other ones, but I still don't feel right after, so I'm stuck with the Vegan ones. I may actually have a single serving packet. If I do, I'll PM you and send it your way. The other proteins are better, but this has been the best vegan one I've found.
How are you with lentils or grains? Quinoa is pretty good for protein as are regular green lentils ("mung daal").Thanks! I really appreciate it.

I honestly cannot even look at myself in the mirror, I do not even recognized the person I see in front of me. I keep trying to get my eating in order and then I fall off the wagon again. I ordered a size small shirt for the Grandaddy and I am 99% sure I won't fit into it. I actually woke up in a panic at 3am thinking about this.
I HAVE to get this under control. I did my first run on the treadmill just now. Nothing major, just 1.5 miles but it's better than nothing. The first mile I banged out in 10 minutes, but the last .5 mile took me another 10 minutes because I walked at a slower pace at the highest incline the machine could go. I didn't want to kill myself the first time out.
I really hope I can find my way again, because I really hate myself right now.
Perfect. I'd recommend adding quinoa into everything. It doesn't have much of a taste, so you can put it in whatever.I am fine with them, it's just dairy I can't handle. Sadly, been that way since birth.

Do I need to give you my healthy alcohol drink speech
1 more lb to go and should coast in under 190 for The Grandaddy.
More importantly I will easily make my sub 185 goal for the PGA Show barring any major hiccups.
Im actually moving my goal to 180 by the PGA Show now.
DragonFly. It's happening. I think that was our deal.
If I was burning 1000 calories a workout, I could eat Golden Coral for every meal.

I might eat pizza for every meal, and I would still lose weight
LOL I hear you ... I view it has a data point of a work effort, more than it represents calories. I think an old guy like me breaks their model a bit ... plus I was supposed to be in the orange, more than the red ... but I wanted the 1000 number (whatever it really is)
