Jillian Michaels Vanilla Whey Protein Powder


$10 at Wal-mart, they had the triple chocolate or the vanilla cream. I got it because it is 100 calories, 15g protein, and 3g of fiber. Low in carbs as well! Has approx 14 servings (Mind you, I don't use a full scoop)

Open: Smells like play-doh! I'm a little turned off..stick my finger in it like a child..and lick..oh snap! It tastes like vanilla!

1st attempt: Mix in almost a full scoop with a glass of vanilla soy milk. (Not so keen on the water idea and too lazy to unpack the blender and make a smoothie..plus, I don't have any fruit!)

I mix it up, it was not gritty...anything that did not dissolve with my lame attempts of stirring..did melt in my mouth and taste really good. I downed the glass smoothly and was pretty content. I do presume that using a blender would have made it with no bumps along the way, and I bet it would be amazing in a smoothie.

All in all, I am a happy camper...we shall see if it really helps my appetite, today I had 2 snacks and 1 meal, and now this glass of soy milk with the whey protein. if I do one more snack tonight, I will be right on target! I am tempted to try the triple chocolate to help subdue some chocolate cravings :-)

So **** 4 out of 5 stars, the smell and mixing consistency could be better. PS..it does not smell once you blend it in your drink of choice. Cost is less than $1 per serving!
