What can you tell me about protein shakes? At first glance it seems like an easy breakfast which is what I'm looking for since I don't usually do breakfast at all.
Also, I have to admit I haven't read the whole thread, how often are people weighing in? |
Mg kick the cantelope and insert 1/2 cup of oatmeal and you have a rock solid breakfast. The oatmeal will also help not give you a sugar spike and will take the body longer to process so you wont be as hungry as quickly as you will be with the eggs and cantalope. Hell you could add in another egg white and be just fine.
As to breakfast shakes, it sounds to me like you are refering to a MRPs meal replacement shake. This is a good option if time is an issue and you want to get it right. That said a balanced meal is a better option. I am not a trainer but have more than a few buddies who are. Here is a list of MRPs

I dont want to be anyones downer. I see some things that should be changed. That said I dont want to force my opinions on anyone. One area I dont see being discussed is beverages with meals. I am scared to think what some are drinking and not realizing its effects on diets. Fruit juices and fruits can be your enemy on a diet.
