Easy Protein Fix

After researching more on the question and answer board I found an answer to my concern for getting enough protein. In the morning, I blend 12 oz of skim milk with 2 scoops of 20gram protein powder (I use Amplify vanilla flavored from GNC) and 1/3 cup dry milk. The result is almost 60 grams of protein for the day that I drink 3x a day(4 oz each time) 1/2 hour prior to eating. Then whatever I eat just enhances the protein. Amplify has a good flavor and tho I know I will eventually tire of it, it is a necessary evil that is easier to take in the smaller portions.

Michelle, How does the Amplify taste? Are you showing any signs of not getting enough protein? Did you know for every oz of meat you eat you get 7 grams of protein as well. But if I remember you are still on the liquid part of this diet right now? How have you been feeling?

Michelle, I just bought the Amplify today. I thought it tasted not so bad. They had a sample of chocolate and a teaspoon of peanut butter in it. After my surgery(on Friday yea!!) I am going to try your recipe. It looks great. DeAnne
