For me it does.
I had to stop drinking my normal protein shake. The horror! I'm having my breast lift in two days, and was required to stop drinking any energy drinks 2 weeks prior to surgery. My regular protein shake is Monster muscle protein energy, so that counts. I called shenanigans, and decided I would compromise. I went with a week.
So anyway, I quit last Friday. It was a sad day. In its place I went with Premier caramel. It's ok in terms of taste. In terms of filling me up or holding off hunger HAH! No. Holy crap, I am soooooo hungry. With my Monster, I almost never ate food until dinner, they kept me so full. With the Premier, I'm eating food before I even finish the last sip of the shake. I also bought the Premier clear tropical punch drinks. I love them! I'm drinking them like water. (They're 90 calories 1 carb 20 protein) I am drinking 2 of them a day, but they also do not make me feel any type of hunger control. So, on the bright side, I'm getting in crap tons of protein each day. On the downside, I've gained about 5 or 6 pounds since last Friday.
I had planned to not go back to the Monster shakes after surgery since they're pretty expensive and I'll just have to come off them again for the next surgery. However, I cannot deal with the constant hunger and the weight gain that I'm experiencing from the Premier products.
I know a lot of people here drink the Premier. Do you guys also feel like you could eat your own leg? I would have never successfully lost my weight had that been my protein shake from the beginning. Muscle Milk was my go to for the first year.
