    Hi,

    I use "Whey to go" for past 4 years. Very good. Add some fruits and non fat milk, it is excellent. It costs around 45 dollars in Whole Foods Market.

    Vanila flavor is good. I never tried the Chocolate one.

    Enjoy!!!!

    I love the one from Amway! It is best carbs to protein ration. Protein powder from Amway is very famous in India also..

    MKGirl,

    I tried whey protein powder with Milk as we drink complan or boost. But within 2 weeks I could feel am putting on a lot of weight.

    I stopped it immediately.
    Then tried once again and felt the same. It happened both for me and hubby.

    Then we switched to another protein drink - Premium (we get it from costco).

    I'd suggest you try it first and then buy the big pack.

    Yes Ranchu, you are right. That is what happens with most protein powders.. as they give your good proteins, but also carbs..

    That is why I recommended the Amway one, it does not put weight and I am a living example of that.. been using it for 5 years now..
