| Protein Bullets/Shots?
I have seen a couple of posts refering to the protein bullet drinks that have a lot of protein in them and you don't have to worry about drinking a big glass of something to get all your protein in. Can anyone tell me what these are called and where you can get these?

They are called WHEY 42 Bullets and in 3 oz you get 42 grams of protein. Of course, I split it up twice a day because your body only absorbs so much protein.
I have found them online at VitaminShoppe and at Vitamin World. GNC Does not carry them. The fruit punch is the best; followed by orange; then grape. I highly recommend them.

| Another High Protein Option Also - check out Protica Research for their Profect protein tubes: each tube is 2.9 ounces of great-tasting fruity beverage - each is 25 grams of protein, zero carbs, zero calories, zero cholesteral, zero fat. If you need to watch your sodium, there are 64 mg's of sodium... I have tried just about all the flavors & they're all great - not too sweet and no yucky aftertaste! The tubes come in a 4-pack and are $11.96 + shipping. ~Lisa |

I got them and tried them and didn't like them very much. They kinda taste like liquid jello, but they are only 3 oz and carry a whopping 42 oz of protein. You can get them at Bariatric Eating - Protein, Vitamins, Gastric Bypass & Lap Band Info, Post-op Recipes, and Help
