    You can get a good milk or egg based protein powder at a place like GNC, I add those to my coffee or sugar free hot chocolate in the morning and it's a great way to start the day. Also, Syntrax Nectar is a good one to add to your water (you can find that on Amazon), and they actually taste pretty good (although I have to put mine in a cup with a lid b/c the protein smell gets to me!).
