Do you guys think protein shakes are good for weight loss and if so what are good ones to use?

    I think they are a great way to feel really full really fast. Dashingdish.com has great recipes. I didn't think I would like it, but 1/2 cup cottage cheese works well as a thickener to make it more milkshake-y.

    I love protein shakes. They are a great way to get in protein, which is one of the most important (if not the most important) tools to a good diet. Optimum Nutrition is by far the best tasting, but it is more costly. It is what I use. The chocolate is really good.

    Sure, if you need the protein and have the calories, why not?

    When I make one, I use body fortress protein powder. It's pretty good and inexpensive. I mix a scoop in a blender with either a banana or strawberries (sometimes mix both if I have them) with half a cup of milk and 5 ice cubes. Gives me a yummy treat and fills me right up.
