I dont have time between classes and work to get much in terms of calories and cant afford to spend money at my uni's dining center nor a place to keep something to bring(I am in labs all day and food is a nono). My question is what can I do to make my protein shakes allow me to feel fuller longer? I am in basically 9-5 everyday and MW at work 8pm-midnight. Usually I add fruit to it but dont think it will keep that long. A friend suggested buy an almond milk and add that to the powder. Trying that today but any other suggestions?

    Consider Parmalat milk (sold in boxes on the shelves but also available on-line). It has more protein and fats than almond milk does. Fruit juice will work too.

    Im not a huge fan of fruit juices anymore, since a lot have more sugar added or a lot of sugar and most of the stuff is lost when the pulp/fibre part of the fruit is removed. But yea thought of doing that. Ill try and find the parmalat milk, ive never heard of it before(have tried boxed milk before and wanted to vomit but that was in russia haha)
