I like Meijer's Slim Supreme French Vanilla. 190 Calories. 6 Fat. 24 Carbs. 10 Protein. Best if VERY cold.0

Most quality protein powders taste pretty good (On, gaspari, xf, trutein) but shakes/mrps do nothing special for weight loss

I eat Clif builder chocolate bars after I workout but I don't really think replacing a meal with a shake or bar is a great idea, I think it goes hand in hand with calling it a diet rather than a change you want to stick with you for the rest of your life. If you're body is hungry feed it. =]
Good luck =]0 -
Sometimes I have pancakes for dinner. Aunt Jemima is my favorite.0

Met-Rx has a couple that don't taste terrible..
They have a couple different flavors that have something similar to rice crisp in them and are around 420 calories each (so, you might get 2 meals out of it depending on how many calories you're eating).
Flavors I've tried and liked are Peanut Butter Carmel Crunch & Peanut Butter Pretzel.
Those are also pretty good for helping out with any sugar cravings I may be suffering from too.0 -
I use the drink as a snack when on the run not all the time. I lose better when eating 3 small meals and 2 snacks. It works for me.0

Any combination and permutation of peanut butter, banana, milk, oats, and whey do quite nicely.
Myoplex is is pretty tasty.0 -
My problem is that I am not a breakfast person... I have my coffee that I refuse to give up but if I don't have something then I'm starving by 10am.
As for the protein powders, what are they mixed with? Water or milk?0 -

I respectfully disagree. The meal replacement drink that I have has many more vitamins and nutrients in 200 calories than I could eat in food for less/same calories.0 -
I have been using a whey protein shake every morning for past 6-7 months. I typically find EAS, Muscletech pretty darn tasty. I mix with 1% milk, tastes like a shake....my 2 cents0

I like to mix mine with unsweetened vanilla almond milk (I like Silk the best). Helps to give it a creamier texture as well as more flavor. I have been using a protein isolate (chocolate) from VitaminWorld when I don't have time for breakfast, or when I feel the need to snack at night. The almond milk is low in calories and high in calcium and the poweder is loaded with protein, 30g I think.
Good luck in your hunt!0 -

then you are ignorant on many fronts, the quality of vitamins is more important then just how many there are.0 -
Hm... See I was just looking at these Rexal brand meal replacement can things. for 255 calories I'm getting a minimum of 25% of the vitamins I need and twice as many protien than I normally get out of eating actual breakfast. Plus it's lactose free. I'm just scared to buy them and then find out they are terrible... I tried the boost stuff and it was so gross.0

I don't mean to have then everyday, just when I either do not have time for breakfast or have nothing that will fall into the 'healthy food' category.0

When I was in rehab with my hip the nutritionist put a fat tree milk carton and a pack of Armour protein powder on my lunch and dinner trays. In the milk it tasted like a malt shake. A drop of vanilla wouldn't hurt.
The only thing about that was thinking about where Armour would get protein from (image of guy with push broom in the Armour packing plant).0 -

I know typing can come out as mean so I'm saying first this isn't in a snippy way =]. I was just about to quote your initial response that I do like those shakes their good, but my best friend is a dietitian and says they aren't so great for you and they are a diuretic.
I'm not saying shakes/bars are bad because like I mentioned I eat the bars. In my opinion I don't believe their realistic to life off of the rest of your life.0
