Hello has anyone tried meal replacements with protein shakes? Was thinking to replace one meal a day with a protein shake smoothie then two healthy meals. Just to get me started. Desperately need to lose 5/6 stone by the end of the year I've tried every single diet any advice would be greatly appreciated ☺️

    Protein shakes are protein supplements. You might blend protein powder with spinach (fiber) fruit (flavor & fiber) and some nut butter (or other healthy fat). That way you get something more like a meal.

    Protein by itself doesn't keep me full very long.

    You can get meal replacement shakes (some commercial diets are based on them) which are nutritionally adequate whereas the standard "protein powder" off the shelf doesn't have the added minerals, vitamins etc etc.
