I'm not a big breakfast eater, infact I skip it most of the time. I'm looking to add more protein to my diet (something quick) so I bought some Pb2 and almond milk to have for breakfast but I want some protein to help curve my hunger until lunch time (so I don't over eat). I'm just not sure which protein powder to get

    Not eating anything for breakfast is honestly the best way to curb your hunger before lunch. Anything that's animal based protein (whey or casein), that tastes good, and has relatively low carbs and fat, with high protein. I like isopure dutch chocolate, but find anything that you enjoy, or just eat chicken breast.

    On a budget?
    I like walmarts Pure Protein powder.
    I make it with skim milk in a $14 small blender.
    First try the pure protein bar (also sold at store). See if you can handle the taste.
    Less than $1 a serving.

    You should always eat breakfast or your body goes into starvation mode. Protein powder comes in several types. I can't take whey (milk based) or soy so I was told to try hemp instead. There's also casein, egg, rice and pea. Your choice depends on what you have available and what you can eat.

    Sorry, but starvation mode does not exist. And to even suggest that if it did exist, it would kick in after one missed breakfast is beyond insane. I've lost almost 80 pounds since last August and I almost never eat breakfast because I'm almost never hungry in the morning. I'm not going to eat when I'm not hungry. That's not exactly a smart thing to do when trying to lose weight.
