Protein Shakes
I don't really differentiate between meals and snacks. I eat about six times a day and sometimes one of those six times actually involves drinking a protein shake instead of eating food.

I like my protein shake for breakfast, and sometimes have one in the evening. The rest of my protein I get from food. I keep an eye on total calories to regulate amount of intake.

I have a protein shake each morning for breakfast after I have my coffee. It gives me a great surge of energy. Occasionally I will eat a regular type breakfast, (veggie/cheese omelet or egg and bacon, etc) especially if I am on vacation. I am happiest with my protein shake, though. I f I think my protein intake on any given day is on the low side, I have a protein shake in the evening as well.
