How Many?

[transcend2007]

How many protein shakes do you drink per day?

I am doing 2 currently but I have done as many as 5 per day (love those peanut butter shakes).

However, I am curious if you guys have found other good (and simple) meal replacements?

Personally, I try to limit my protein shakes to one post workout. IMO, whole foods are a superior source of nutrients and the various whey/blends are profoundly overrated. Then again I have a raging hard-on for the entire supplments industry

I usually have 2 protein shakes a day. One when I wake up, and one post workout. I would like to do 1 a day, but I am too lazy in the mornings to make a breakfast that has a good amount of protein in it.

just post workout ,sometimes in the morning if im lazy

I am usually two a day......one in morning (just simply scoop of protein in almond milk) to break the fast then 30 minutes later eat breakfast, and one post workout (which has 2 cups of spinach, 1/4 cup of oatmeal, banana, and 1/2 cup blueberries).............

At most 2. The shakes can't match the nutritional value of clean eating

I carry a shaker, protein powder, water and granola bars in case I face missing a meal. Otherwise meat and egg sources.

STEALING THIS^^^ =D

I wouldn't go over 2 shakes a day tho. At some point I feel it's just a waste and force you to end up shitting it out along with your other whole foods which I feel isn't being allowed to digest completely, forcing you to loose good calories causing a smaller amount of calorie intake. When stuffs to high, your body just rejects it. That's why i've kinda taken a step back from making my own homemade weight gainers ect.

organic milk 5-6oz

Bowl of oatmeal and muscleegg first thing in the morning and a shake after the gym for me

Jenner, did you ever use shakes? How many times per day do you eat currently. Would be possible share a day's diet?

You're clearly on the right track!

I also eat 3 rotisserie chickens a day on top of my other food. They are only 3.99 each here. I'm hooked on these lately.

Tran, what is your age, weight bf, and how often do you go to the gym? Also, are you cutting, bulking, maintaining?

No shakes unless for some reason I have to miss a meal. I used to do 2 but I can say ive noticed a difference since ive stopped.
