Cheaper

I did a search and read everything posted here about good, cheap, protein drinks. I see it recommended everywhere for people who are busy. I myself am looking and I am wondering if anyone has something better/cheaper. Here is what I did years ago. I checked the nutritional info on EAS Myoplex Original(for bodybuilders) and Myoplex lite(weightloss). Myoplex lite is what I needed. It has half the protein, carbs, fat etc. I would buy the Myoplex Original, (single serving packets) and make 2 servings out of each packet(instead of one serving) It still tasted awesome and it had what Myoplex lite had. I still take a multi-vitamin. Right now, I found a site that has Myoplex orginal priced at $57.89 for 42 packets..thats about $1.38 per serving. Cutting it in half as I do, it's only about $0.69 for me. I haven't heard anyone using Myoplex. Does anyone like it as much as I do? I did notice some differences in brands Thngs like glutamine and aminogen are added to theirs. Is there something I am missing?

I think the stuff is great I love the creamy texture and when I blend it with crushed ice it is almost like going to Dairy Queen. My fav is the Choc. Mocha. Great meal replacement when on the go. I also have added Glutimine and my creatine to it when loading. I have also added left over cold coffee to the mocha favor for a little extra boost. -------------- THE NATURAL WAY IS THE ONLY TRUE PATH TO SUCCESS, PRIDE, JOY, HAPPINESS, LONG TERM FULFILLMENT AND SELF-ESTEEM!

(just wanted to let you know that you are an inspiration, sandysford!) I am thinking about trying the whey protein supplement from Optimum Nutrition. It is cheap enough. Does anyone think it tastes good?

(Choc, Straw, or Vanil)20 g protein per serving and I usually just double up to get that of myoplex. 40 servings of myoplex is far more expensive the the 20 bucks that Vitamin World's cost. -------------- Jay
