    That is a study of beverages. Many people report that they don't find beverages very filling.

    I find solid protein filling short and long term. However when i have a protein drink all i am doing is adding extra protein to my diet...it does nothing for my hunger. It holds it off a little bit longer but, i dont find them " filling".

    I with the above poster. That why a lot of products are called "protein supplements" instead of "protein food". It's just meant to add protein to your diet. They're not meant to replace your normal food intake.

    My rack of ribs from the weekend was quite filling.

    Here are a few studies which show protein is more satiating than carbs or fats. You have to realize that highly processed foods like whey protein powder are not as satiating as something like eggs or meat, which is what your study suggests. The study you posted can't be extrapolated to all protein sources.

    lol- you do realize everyone who talks about higher protein levels to keep you more full is talking about chewable food- not liquid beverages. not that many people can drink flavored water and find it particularly filling.

    Mine's okay b/c I mix it with milk- but I have it with my dinner.

    protein powder shake =/= meal replacement

    Ummmm....I don't think anyone has every suggested that whey protein and protein supplements are satiating...

    maybe try a chicken breast...

    Did they do a study with a liquid carbohydrate supplement as well? Like soda maybe? Or Hatorade?

    Most people aren't going to feel full from a liquid meal, even if it does have protein. Eating the protein means you're getting actual food in your stomach, which helps make you feel full.

    My rack of ribs from the weekend was quite filling.

    Indeed, I find a rack of ribs to be most filling. Especially when augmented by a good Carolina bbq sauce.

    The feeling of burning 700 calories converting 90 grams of protein into other chemicals is filling to me.

    Bronan, either you're funny, or you have a bad attitude. Hell, maybe both.

    Either way, misrepresenting information on forums frequented by people trying to sort through the confusion ain't good. Simply throwing this misleading title in the forum might run a few folks around in mental circles. You should feel bad.

    not all protein is created equal.

    Your anecdotal evidence means nothing to my science

    I don't think a claim that these studies (of water-based protein drinks) prove that protein isn't filling can be legitimately called "science."

    Maybe its the fat in those products that make you full. Meat and eggs are more than just protein bro
    Chicken breast nearly is. Shrimp even more so. How much fat is in shrimp?
