Some are higher than others...always have to read the nutritional info and fit the calories into your overall daily totals. I have 800-1000 calories a day and try to reach 70-80 grams of Protein and under 40 carbs. I have one shake a day 140 cal, 25 grams protein and sometimes an Atkins daybreak bar for 150 cal and 10 grams protein. Or sometimes I have cottage cheese and fruit for Breakfast and allow myself a Power Crunch bar as an afternoon snack.< /p>

For shakes, I like the Body Fortress brand sold at Walmart. Less than 200 calories and 26 grams of Protein per serving. I boost this by 9 grams by mixing it with 1 cup of skim milk instead of Water. I also like the Pure Protein brand bars, also sold at Walmart. Less than 200 calories and 18 to 20 grams of protein, depending on what flavor you choose.

Im with bubbaloo! The New Whey body fortress is a good inexpensive way to get in a significant amount of Protein, in a single meal. However, I have tired of protien drinks, so in an effort to shake things up, ive just started adding a 1/2 can (7.5 Oz) Starbucks, doubleshot energy vanilla light, instead of Water, or milk. Yoy can get the cans by the energy drinks. It tastes amazing! You get 4.5 more grams of protien, and the carbs and sugars are 10g & 7g. Something that I can live with at 4wks out!

Half a can of this, with some crushed ice, in place of Water or milk. I add it to the vannilla or chocolate Peanut Butter new whey protien, double delish!
