The minute you mix something with your shake (milk/banana/pb) or drink it with a meal, your slowing the digestion down anyway. All that matters is at the end of the day, you hit your daily macros. Whether its 300g of protein over 6 meals, or 2, it doesnt matter.

Nice job with the weight loss, keep up the hard work!

Ah. I do the slow digesting for breakfast in the morning and after my workout (which is usually after work). I don't mis anything with it. Right now, I'm taking in about 200g of protein over 6 meals.

It's weird (to me). Back when I was counting calories and trying to just stick to under 1300 per day, I always felt hungry. Now, my main focus is trying to get my protein in. I average 1200 calories per day, and I'm never hungry.

You know what really satiates me and is good for you? Apples. Pretty much all I ever eat for breakfast anymore is an apple or two. Maybe some eggs and tomatoes a couple times a week.

I haven't eaten cereal in years. I think eating cereal for breakfast is complete nonsense.

You should add some protein with this. Boil up a carton of eggs each week and have two with breakfast.

Eh. Most days I have an apple for breakfast, go work out, come home and slug a 50g protein shake. Lunch varies. In the evening I usually have two chicken breasts for dinner with vegetables. Is adding two eggs to that really gonna be that big a deal, besides extra calories?

If you like eggs & tomatoes, you should try scrambled eggs with salsa. I've been eating 6 scrambled with salsa at least 5 days a week for the last two years, i just never get tired of it. I'm also hooked on cinnamon raisen ezekial bread.. shits like crack.
