GREAT idea concerning Protein Shakes

I was talking to Vitalady the other day and she asked me how I was mixing my protein shakes. I said half milk/half water. She asked why the milk, since it has extra calories and SUGAR and I said it made the shake creamier. She gave me an excellent idea and I would like to pass it on to yall. In my shaker glass, I pour one scoop of Coffee Mate powder and one and a half scoops of my GNC 100% Whey Protein [chocolate] and shake that up with some water. It's instantized so it mixes right up. Then I pour it in my large mug and fill it the rest of the way with water. It tastes really good AND I trimmed off the 100 calories for milk, as well as the milk sugars! Sounds like a plateau buster to ME!

Angel, Thanks for that great idea hun I uses the Carb Control milk to that is not an issue and I could use the calories to keep me out of starvation mode, I seem to lose when I am eating more calories. Trying to find things that are not fats and carbs AND keep the calories up is hard work. Thanks again ~hugs~ Debra P

Debra, that's where the other half scoop of protein powder comes in. I replace the bad calories with GOOD calories and an additional 10 grams of protein!

Angel, OH now I get it.... OK so it is Monday and I AM a little slow today. Thanks again hun ~hugs~ Debra P
