[QUOTE="Tophat1900, post: 1373313, member: 362123"] IMO- shakes should not be used as meal replacements. As has been said here already, eat real food. You could use a good quality unflavoured whey protein powder (Clean one without all the garbage that is in most of them) as the protein part of a meal and cook the rest of the meal, veggies, or salad etc. You can flavour your own shakes with cacao powder, a sweetener you like if you use one. You can add things to them, peanut butter for example. If you are following a LCHF diet. You can make your own if you prefer, there is nothing magical about a protein powder or shake mix. Some are very expensive. Some are not bad. They can be used as a quick 'on the go' top up when you don't have time to cook or running late for work etc. [/QUOTE]
