Protein shakes - whats the deal??
I have been Atkins lowcarbing on and off for almost a year and i am pretty happy with what i eat. I have heard a lot of people say they have protein shakes, but i have never tried them, What are they like? Are they really low carb, are they for meal replacements like the (gross) slimfast milkshakes? Are they available ready made in the uk or do you have to buy powdered protein and add eye of newt and wing of bat yourself?
What are the pros of eating the shakes. I feel that i eat a good portion of protein in the meats that i eat, how can this help me? How many carbs is there usually in a glassful?
thanks guys!!!!
( i think its about time we had some more success stories posted don't you? they really help me to keep things on track)
