No artificial sweeteners, lowest calorie whey powder, great results October 27, 2009

As a weight loss coach I'm always on the lookout for products that can have a positive effect. I'll be honest. I snickered at the plug for this on the Biggest Loser and said it's obviously just regular whey powder rebranded with their name to sell. (I tend to snicker at many things promoted heavily on tv...this is normal for me.)
Okay, I'll own that I was wrong...I never even LOOKED at this product for months but someone in one of my weight loss groups mentioned it so I did.
First, it has less than half the calories for the same serving as most whey powders. Maybe all whey powders. I spend a LONG time in stores comparing stats and this beat out the lowest ones I used to use by FAR in it's nutritionals.
Second it uses Stevia as a sweetener. Stevia is all natural and is waaaaay sweeter than sugar so you only need a tiny bit of it in comparison to sugar. (This and Agave are the only low calorie sweeteners that health and all natural markets sell) I refuse to use artificial sweeteners now because I've read too much about them but I never leave the house without my stevia packets.
Third...it just works. I've used whey powder for years to help with my fitness and weight loss plan. It not only keeps you full, but it helps muscles after a workout. Plus fiber has been shown to assist weight loss which is why it's a huge part of the Weight Watchers plan...and so many other things I could make this review very long by adding. It's just uber good stuff.
I personally like to make a smoothie with this powder and add in some fruit. I love the taste of this smoothie. I also just found out they have blueberry flavor and I'm psyched...I've never seen that in a whey powder. The vanilla is great because it gives you a plain base to either utilize on it's own or with other flavorings or fruit. After a mega workout I'll even add a bit of prepared oatmeal and a few teaspoons of all natural peanut butter for a mega filling mega protein boost...but that adds more calories obviously.
Also, it's hard for some of the people I work with in losing weight to get their water servings in each day. I suggest adding a little but of the whey protein to the water for both flavor, vitamins, protein etc. It's a win/win all around. I do this as well. Cheaper and healthier than the flavored packets for water and this contains no artificial sweeteners and is packed with goodies for your body so it's a better alternative to flavoring your water or milk if those servings are hard for you to do.
This helps me in between meals in a HEALTHY way that assists my weight goals rather than sidetracking them...

I just tried this mix this week and it's a great product if you're looking for something low in calories to help curb your appetite and give you energy.
If you're sensitive to artificial sweeteners and/or flavorings, you might not like the taste. Otherwise, I found the taste very smooth with just the right amount of sweetness. I blended the powder with some light soymilk and strawberries and it was very tasty and filling. When I tried it with just water, it wasn't terrible, but it wasn't the best either. Maybe if you add ice and blend it, you'll get a better texture.
So far, I've just had it for breakfast in the mornings before work, so I can't say whether or not you'll experience better performance during a workout. I can say that the mix of vitamins do make me feel refreshed in the morning. I take a multi-vitamin every morning anyway, but I felt a bit of a boost after drinking the protein shake.
I haven't tried many other health shakes, but if you're trying to lose weight (versus build mass), this is probably a good option (and if you're on Weight Watchers like me, you'll appreciate how one scoop is zero points, thanks to the added fiber). I look forward to trying the other flavors soon.
Great Stuff! December 27, 2009

I've used this powder for a couple months now and have only positive things to say about it. First off, I am extremely picky. I wanted a protein powder with no artificial sweeteners. This is one of the few on the market that uses stevia instead of sucralose, etc. The stevia does add sweeteness but has a far lesser impact on blood sugar levels than does actual sugar. (Just a note: ONLY the chocolate and vanilla use stevia. The blueberry and raspberry, DO use sucralose!) Another thing I like about this powder is that it contains prebiotic FIBER. Good luck finding another protein powder that contains fiber! I have incorporated a lot more fiber into my diet and it has helped me to lose 20 lbs. It's one of the best decisions I ever made. The fiber will help you feel full and is good for you. Last but not least - it mixes well and tastes great. I'm a chocolate-lover and this hits the spot. I wouldn't say it's extremely sweet (nor should it be) but it definitely tastes good. I like to use make a frozen shake with a cup of water, a cup of ice, half a frozen banana, and 2 scoops of this powder. I put it in my blender (Magic Bullet) and voila! In my opinion, this chocolate powder is the best of all of them and I've tried the other 3 flavors. I hope this review helps. I'm here to buy more!

Designer Whey The Biggest Loser Protein - Vanilla Bean 10oz, 10oz Canister
I switched over from soy protein shakes to whey protein shakes some time ago. The problem is that most of them use artificial sweeteners that I am sensitive to. This all natural Vanilla Bean shake uses stevia, a natural product.
The taste is a nice vanilla and is neutral flavored enough to support adding fresh or frozen fruits for a very tasty smoothie. I usually have it plain (mixed with water) as a supplement to a light meal or as a snack. I would highly recommend it.

I think this is great stuff. I also have the individual packs for bottled water. I've lost 15 pounds over the past couple of months and I know it's not fast and not a lot, but it's coming off!! :)
