    Yeah I know it wont do what it says on the tub of mix, but I figured it'd be a filling alternative to a breakfast or somethin. Looking at my breakfast this morning made me think of this. Any kind of shakes really I guess, lets expand it beyond just the slimquick banner.

    I've tried one before but cant remember what it was exactly. I didnt mind it at all, liked it even.

    Thats the one plus about me, Im not a picky eater / drinker /etc. I can eat anything.

    All you need is a good whey protein shake. I use GNC 100% Whey Protein cuz they are close to my home. Lots of flavors and if you blend in some frozen fruit they taste awesome.

    Im not gonna disagree with you paul but GNC is pricey man check out www.bodybuilding.com some really cheap protein supplements on there usually about 50-70% cheaper than GNC and thats a fact

    I don't know anything about Slim Quick (doesn't sound promising though... Slim and quick don't belong together.. LOL).

    How about protein shakes?

    I am extremely picky and only drink Muscle Milk (and if someone is going to send me hate mail, links about MM or whatever.. don't bother... I will delete them), but there are a TON of different brands and price ranges out there. There's another one I don't mind Dynamatize fusion or some such brand (it's very pricey, so I don't buy it unless it is on super sale).

    I actually just started this new protein called Hydrowhey by optimum nutrition its DELICIOUS and 30G of protein but Muscle Milk is delicious no hate here :)

    lol just to reiterate, I kinda just threw the name out there because thats what my mom has in the house right now.

    My only limit for shakes, is since I dont have a credit card, I kinda have to stick to something I could hit up at Walmart or something.

    You can get MM at WM or even GNC. GNC tends to have it on "Hot Buy!" alot - for like $25. I've used a couple ones from WM (Body Fortress, maybe?) and it didn't mix well enough for me. It was like drinking a milk sandshake - the grit was ick. lol

    Ha. I just looked over and my boyfriend has a big thing of that on the counter. I've never tried it. How does it compare to MM?

    (Last time I mentioned MM on the forums - I was flooded with hate mail about it being full of neuro toxins, asbestos, and blah blah blah blah. If you don't wanna drink it - fine, but spare me the drama about it. Ya know? LOL)

    LOL taste wise compared to muscle milk its not as good BUT your getting 30G's of protein in 140Calories its pretty solid and its Hydrowhey so its supposed to absorb into the muscle alot faster its the purest form of Whey right now but you definitly pay for it Its pretty pricey, I guess it all depends what your into try your BF's if he lets you lol!

    Hang on, what was wrong with your breakfast this morning? There's lots of things you could have for brekkie without turning to an artificial and expensive product, surely.

    I think slim quick shakes are gross (taste bad and make me sick to my stomach). I do like to make fruit smoothies for breakfast. I know many people add different protein powders and there are tons of them out there. Are you mainly looking for quick breakfast ideas? I know there have been some good discussions about that. You could always search for past topics on quick breakfast ideas.

    I am usually pretty good, breakfast wise. Today was a big one (pancakes) but saturday breakfasts usually are anyways.

    I am just looking for something to keep me full throughout the day so I'm not snacking and stuff.
