how may protein shakes

I find that when I really have my act together as far as getting good nutrition along with my workouts, I like to get around 125 or so grams a day of protein coming from shakes. Usually try to average about 3 shakes per day with roughly 40 g's of protein per shake.

I like Met-Rx.
 
Protien in my oatmeal for b-fast.
Pre-workout and Post-workout,
Pre-bedtime shake, and 3 a.m. shake.

so, 5 times a day-- about 250g protien from shakes aiming around 400g protien per day.
 
I get 4-5 shakes a day consisting of approx 50grams per shake. I try to equal that with solid food.
 
Most often I have two shakes a day with about 60 to 80 grams per shake. I also have a tri-o-plex protein bar with a handful of BCAA post workout. I eat a pound or more of lean beef, or boned chicken each day. I have 3 suger free/fat free yougurt with fat free cottege cheese mixed in for1meal daily. Often I will substitute whole eggs mixed with extra whites for some of the meat in my diet. I don't like to let my protein intake drop below 300 grams a day.:)
 
2 a day miniumum....try to get 3-4......qucik question......99% of meal replacements have malotx. as their carb source......this bad to use as a meal say mid-morning.......couple hours after breakfast.......insulin spike? What if you pop some rala or even metamucil first to slow digestion????
 
for the people who take in a lot of shakes and are also eating 200grams a day:

do you notice a difference if you drop the shakes or did u notice a nice difference when adding the shakes?

there are times when i cant eat as much real food as i would like but i can always mix a shake but at times if i am going to have 5 shakes a day i just feel like i would be wasting the protein

Please respond :)
 
I try to limit my shakes to as little as possible. I will try not to have more than 2/day as I would rather take in solid foods. If I am unable to though then I will supp it with a shake. They dont really hold me off that long and that is why I would rather take in solid foods.

Those are really good. The choc/coconut and peanut butter/choc chip and excellent.....VERY moist. All the carbs are complex (oats) too which is nice, and no hydrogenated fats.
 
I try to take in about 450 grams of protein day. 200 coming from shakes. I just can't eat enough solid food to get it all in so I rely on the shakes to make sure I do. Either way if your getting it from food or shakes it's going to be expensive but if you want to grow its worth the investment.

Saw that in the store...grabbed the peanut butter choc chip instead since all I tried prior was the choc coconut.
