Have no more than one protein shake a day. And don’t forget to chew your shakes as you would solid food. This action is necessary to fully stimulate the digestive process. Moreover, adding sources of fibre such as avocado or physillium husk will help stabilize insulin levels.

and saucywoman, I understand. It's just hard for me to get go without more than 1 shake a day. That plus laziness + still living at home + still a student means I end up using shakes more often than other people. I go minimum 2 a day, sometimes 3 (morning and PWO, the 3rd will be sometime during the day). As mentioned, it's more cost effective.

With that said, I'm still able to get 200 or more grams a day so yeah good stuff (I'm 5'8'' 174)
