Hi just me again. I am thinking about buying a can of protein shakes b/c i am getting sick of eating chickin in the am afternoon, and before bed. I have a few questions about protein shakes. Are all of them loaded with sugar? If they are i don't know if i want to do that b/c then wouldn't that be kinda like a slim fast where it would all store as fat? Also if there are any good ones, and how often should i take a shake, and will they fill me up like i just ate a chicken breast?
Thanks
Rob

it depends on what you want. myoplex is a great shake (according to some friends of mine, metrx is also)with plenty vitamins and shit you need. I make my own protein shakes b/c its simply more affordable, but the real thing is (suppossed to be, not always is) better. I use them as a 2 meals on off days (out of the 6 I eat) and 3 times on days i lift. Mine don't really fill me up, but I have never taken any of the store bought kind.

Get a good whey isolate. They don't contain sugar. there are substitutes for that. You can always have cottage cheese b4 bed, or any other time. But your reason for wanting protein is a real reason....to supplement because you are sick of crunching chicken breast. Make sure the carbs and fat are low. Try doing a search on here, there have been many discussions in the past.

Protein shakes aren't as filling as eating a piece of chicken. I drink 2 shakes a day which is three quarters of my protein intake and make up the rest with chicken, or egg whites. I have found ABB ultra protein shakes to be the best tasting shakes. It has 2g of sugar, 35g of protein, 2g of carbs, and 1g of fat, total calories is 170.
