I use both, including a small emersion blender. Depends on the size of shake I'm doing and what I mix in. Add fruit or ice, use the blender... On the go, shaker bottle...
Congratulations on your 110 pound weight loss!

I'm not saying you aren't allowed to drink protein shakes. The OP asked about them, and asked why people would not drink them. Nobody else answered that part of the question, so I did.
