Guest guest Posted August 17, 2003 Report Share Posted August 17, 2003 I am curious to know if they are truly beneficial and if they taste good. I am also trying to understand how they can make one feel " full " . ======================================== Annie: I have been drinking primarily protein drinks since last Monday and they fill me up and I'm satisfied. Have approximately 4-5 per day mixed with 8 oz water and ice in a blender. I use Champion Whey Stack Pure Protein. Chocolate is my favorite. The way I make them, they come out nice and thick like an ice cream shake and I am totally full. They've also helped me with the carb/sugar cravings and I've found myself turning my nose up at any treats over the last few days especially. I did reset my " dump-o-meter " too. Last night I had 3-4 bites of a chicken cutlet and the same with some spinach and my nose started to run. Sure fire sign that I am full. I also didn't drink anything with my meal which I got into that bad habit about a year ago. The benefits from the shakes is the amount of protein you consume with little carbs and sugar. I'm averaging over 120 gr of protein a day with the shakes alone. That's not possible for me to do just eating food alone. Hope this helps you.
