Protein shake meltodown

[Katrina]

You guys, I'm having a crisis. I'm addicted to my Monster Muscle protein shakes. That's not a problem. The problem is they are nowhere to be found. I don't know what's happening. My neighborhood convenience store orders a case specifically for me every week. They haven't come in for days! There aren't any at any stores anywhere in three cities. I've checked every single store. I've gone on Amazon, and they are selling a 4 pack for SIXTY-FIVE DOLLARS!! What is happening? I have been resorting to drinking this Starbucks Doubleshot coffee and protein crap for the last two days. It's not really bad, but it's not my shake. Help!

*I'm mostly kidding and being dramatic, but dammit, I miss my shakes

Some Sam's Clubs have them. Your local one might be able to order.

I totally hate when you find something you love and then they pull it or it is nowhere to be found for whatever reason. Amazon was out of my collagen and I almost ordered another but since I wasn't completely out I thought I would take a gamble and wait. Luckily it came in when I finally had to order. I was very leery about trying another brand as I know some can be nasty.

Oh happy day!! After contacting Monster and asking them what the heck was going on and finding out they did a makeover, one store has finally got my shakes back. They sure are different though. They’re now in a bottle instead of a can, 27 grams of protein vs the previous 25, 190 calories instead of 200, 4 grams of fat instead of 2, etc.

Also, I’ve gained weight all week without my shakes. This is despite completely changing up my normal fast food diet for only home cooked and no chips, cookies, or candy. So basically I can drink one of these shakes for breakfast and eat complete shit for the rest of the day without gaining or I can not drink a shake, eat well, and gain weight... that makes a lot of sense... except not. My body confuses the hell out of me.
