Atkins Shakes

[cheryl7]

Are these allowed and has anyone tried them? I was thinking of having one in the afternoons before my gym session.

Noticed they've got 8.2g carb/100 and thought also that the fat was maybe a bit too high... Has anyone else found a nice DD friendly shake type thing to tide them over? (It would make a welcome break from chicken!)

I was looking at the protein shakes in our local Health food shop, but didn't get very far cos they were in the "muscle men" section and some weight training types came over to look too and I got embarassed!!If they are almost pure protein they should be ok, and you are right ,they would make a nice change!!

Dr dukan isn't a fan of shakes so I'd avoid it personally. X

There is a pure egg white protein powder you can get in some health shops, you would have to ring around to find it though. I know it can be bought online. Now I'm not saying these are ok, I don't like shakes at all, but it is 100% egg white so I don't see why there'd be a problem!

I have tried protein shakes in the past.
I do not like them too much.
