I probably would if I could find one that tasted okay but, since I haven't been able to, it's just extra calories for some goo that tastes awful and isn't really "enough" to replace a meal.

I feel like something that was filling and tasted good could replace a meal and be good for me but just adding calories that taste like doo doo... not so much.

I bought a goat's milk chocolate protein powder awhile ago. It's ok, not great.

No, but I buy them for my dad who was told that he needs to take in more protein.

I agree, besides, I would rather chew my food, I find it more satisfying! If I was trying to gain weight, then I would make sure every time I drank, it was full of calories. I figure, I'd put on about 20 pounds in a week, lol!

No, I don't really like them and like Wicked Wahine said, I much prefer to chew my food.

I sometimes drink that creatine stuff. Comes in a big black tub-like container... Forgot the name of it, but it has a ton of protein & other good things in it. I like it in vanilla flavor. I add it to water, but most add to milk. I sometimes just add a scoop in my coffee -- tastes pretty good! I used to eat those protein bars & loved the organic protein squares, but I haven't bought any more. They're just too expensive!

When I have an early shift at work and know I'll be busy, I like Naked Naturals protein smoothies

I do not drink protein drinks but I eat protein bars all the time.

I have been trying to find a protein drink that I can buy here that is not Chinese and that doesn't cost an arm and a leg for shipping.

I feel I get enough foods and calories four out of the seven days of the week, I feel I need something extra on those three days. I do find that those three days my muscles get achey and tired, and I just don't have even ten minutes to myself to eat something proper. I mean, I can wolf something down, but then get ill for eating to quickly.

Any suggestions?

No, but I have considered it. I find it hard to get the right amount of protein in my regular diet

No, I'm allergic to dairy and soy and the only ones I've found without them taste like cough syrup.

I prefer actual food! I eat salmon, dairy and legumes for protein.

Very occasionally - they are an effective apatite suppressant.

If Ensure counts as protein drink then yes!

In my younger days I used to make my own version of an Orange Juilius, OJ, 1 Raw Farm Fresh Egg, & Alfalfa Sprouts blended really well together!

I do. Blend vanilla protein together with skimmed milk, a handful of berries and some stevia. It tastes amazing! Better than a milkshake.

I used to, but the whey made me gassy and feel bloated. I get plenty of protein from meat, flax, chia seeds, nuts, and legumes. I believe its better to get protein from unprocessed sources anyways.
