Turned Atkins Shake Into Protein Shake
« on: August 15, 2010, 03:28:00 PM »
So I had a coffee flavoured Atkins shake at home and they are just too sweet for me and make me hungry for some reason so I put it in a blender with 0 carb protein powder, some water/ice and some flax oil and turned it into a healthier and more filling treat.

2 net carbs for the whole thing.

Yum!

BTW, if the Atkins shakes are only 1 and 2 carbs (depending on the flavour) why do they increase my hunger?

Anyone else have this experience?

I gotta tell ya, I've been sooooo disgusted with the Atkins people and their continued mislabeling of products.... I especially get irritated over their "other carbs" on the labels without explanation. Why the shakes make you feel hungry instead of full? I haven't got a clue.
