GNC shakes
 

Does anyone use the GNC shakes or other shakes with some IP products to save money while on the program? my coach is usually good about things but said he will stop my weigh ins if I use alternative products. makes sense just would like other peoples opinions.

I was in maintenance but had a bad 2 weeks of stress eating now i'm back on it to loose the 7 pounds I gained

I've heard quite a few people are using the Premier Protein shakes. You can get them at Costco,I believe.

I still haven't tried them, but I plan on it!

I drink the Pure Protein. I use one container and split it up into a 3 days for my coffee. I haven't just used it for a meal replacement. I get them at Costco 18 for 24.00 I like them, I get the vanilla. Yum!:bike2:

Also, if you are a Costco member, there is a $5.00 off coupon for Premier Protein this month (good for up to 2 boxes, so $10.00 savings).

I am using this ones, I think they are very good in nutrition and the aren't only protein, the are meal replacement . I am fairly new at this but i think is really important that we get meal replacement and not only protein the ones that we drink after exercise. Just my two cent.

I don't drink the 14 oz I drink 10 oz.
