Mmmmm... New Protein Shake!

I decided to try a new whey protein brand. I wanted one that had less than 100 calories a scoop, to try and minimize the impact to my total diet. Supposedly, it is really good to drink like 3 whey shakes a day...but who wants to chew up like 500 calories in shakes?


So, I found this brand called Syntax, and they make these "Nectar" whey protein powders.

Man, they have ever kind. I usually use chocolate, so I got a chocolate truffle flavor, and then I decided to also try the cappuccino flavor. I don't really know too much about the chocolate truffle...but let me just tell you the cappuccino rocks!!!! Last night I just mixed it with water, and it tasted like a latte. So then I had this great idea to mix it with my morning iced coffee. I already use a french vanilla ready to drink protein shake as the creamer instead of REAL creamer. Man, that iced coffee was amazing with the cappuccino whey powder. What a protein shake before the gym!!! THEN, I had an afternoon shake this afternoon with 1 scoop of the cappuccino mix, 1/2 cup skim milk, 1/4 cup coffee, and 1 tbsp of peanut butter. That was delicious!!!


So what I'm trying to say, is that the Cappuccino is WELL worth it. It was about $25 for the big 2 lb container. That is a little more expensive than what I'm used to but not by much. And the best best part...NO FAT! AND ONLY 100 CALORIES!!! This thing is amazing I'm telling you!!! My new favorite supplement!!!!
