      One of the simplest things I do for a protein shake is mix water with 1 scoop of protein and 1/2C quick oats. Protein, good carbs, and some fiber to fill you up.

      meet "Sludge":
      Greek yogurt, chocolate protein powder, peanut butter. Mix well. I know it's not a shake, but it's VERY FILLING!

      normally I just throw almond milk, protein powder, and some heavy cream in my blender bottle and go. It's not really rocket science.

      My 2 favorites:

      8 oz Unsweetened Almond Milk
      1 scoop Chocolate Whey Protein Powder
      1/2 cup frozen dark cherries

      8 oz Unsweetened Almond Milk
      1 scoop Strawberry or Vanilla Whey Protein Powder
      1/2 cup fresh or frozen strawberries (or other fruit of your choice)

      1 scoop of protein powder.
      Fruit of your choice.
      Cup of water/juice.
      Couple of ice cubes.
      Blend well and enjoy!

      This is what I use as a breakfast replacement nearly every day. Filling, good nutritional profile, convenient to make & take. The only difference in my recipe vs. what is below is that I make mine with double strength refrigerated coffee to give it a caffeine kick:

      1 scoop Chocolate Shakeology
      2 scoops Optimum Nutrition 100% whey protein (from GNC)
      2 tablespoons PB2 or (better, cheaper) peanut flour
      12 oz of water
      12-15 ice cubes
      blend until smooth

      Shakeology is *fantastic* -- I have used it once a day every day since January of this year & have lost an amazing amount of weight (well, amazing to me anyway) and feel great! More about Shakeology can be found at: http://myshakeology.com/Ernest24 Each delivery includes at least 30 different recipes to try, if daily variety is important.

      Best wishes! :smile:

      500ml Full fat milk
      2 scoops of whey protein
      30g of flax seed
      1 tble spoon of peanut butter
      2 tble spoons of chocolate nesquick (because I hate the taste of peanut butter)
      4 tea spoons of benefiber (soluble fiber)

      Works out at between 700-800 calories.

      There is nothing special about shakeolgy, it's very over priced, also that guy wants to sell you some. Don't be fooled, counting calories, making informed decisions & hard work drop the weight, not a magic shake with "olgy" attached to the end to make it sound sciency!

      8oz coffee
      vanilla whey
      ice
      1 to 2 packets splenda
      blend

      1 cup frozen strawberries
      1 cup water
      vanilla whey
      1 to 2 packets splenda
      blend
      *less water makes kind of a ice cream like substance.

      1 cup skim milk
      1 banana
      vanilla whey
      ice
      1-2 packet splenda
      *optional: 1 cup frozen strawberries (but this doesn't fit well in my single serving blender)
      *That's the highest calorie one I do.

      Thanks everyone! These should keep me going for a while with a good variety!

      @shiftysheep
      No fear! I get my whey from walmart, lol. I'm not going to spend a ton of money (that I don't have) on something just because it sounds scientific. ^-^ I like Jillian Michaels whey powder, its like $10 and lasts me around 2 weeks at a time. Vanilla or chocolate, they both taste awesome.

      Another idea is to try almond butter instead of peanutbutter (never had some but just bought some :D)
