I tried this workout shake by apex, but its $3.25 per shake... tastes exactly like slim fast. Would slim-fast work? Anything else?

like spanks said just get yourself a whey protein supplement. and if youre not trying to get massive you dont need to get the full 35-40g scoops each serving. you can do it up w/ half that either before or after your workout
as far as flavors go, i usually go plain vanilla and then add stuff like crushed oreos, hersheys syrup, fruit, etc.
*edit* try to look for the ones that are low in cholestoral

you'll end up spending a little more but its worth it imo
