Hey guys and girls - Does anyone have any advice on protein shakes I eat pretty healthy and excercise alot I try to keep my cals up to 1800 to cope will 10 mile runs but sometimes due to work etc I'm struggling to hit 1800. ive bought some whey protein shakes to try and fit in when I'm low on calories.

Does anyone else use them for running? how many should you have a day? etc

    I drink one after every workout which includes a run. I buy the plain or vanilla kind and I usually add greek yogurt to mine to pad my protein and calories.

    I love GNC LEAN SHAKE. Chocolate & strawberry are my absolute fav. You can use it as a meal replacement or snack. Sometimes my husband uses it after his workout, I usually use it as a meal replacement.
    It gives me a lot of energy and keep me full.

    ** I usually drink 2 a day
