Protein shakes and bars forever?

[MeanSleevedMachine 277]

I would say this differs per person. I still drink two shakes a day. That said, I am a large man and will always be a large man. I'm just not a fat man anymore. I workout and I need 190 grams of Protein a day. There is just no way I can eat that much food to get to 190 without protein supplements.< br />
Obviously, I am an exception and not the rule. If you only need 90-100 grams of protein, you can easily do that via food. That is basically chicken for lunch, steak for dinner, eggs for Breakfast and a cup of cottage cheese somewhere along the way. It becomes a lot harder when you double that.

I only eat shakes if I'm at work - it's a quick and convenient way to ingest Protein and I don't have to rush it. The rest of the time, I eat proper food. I am currently snacking on an apple and a chunk of mature cheddar...mmmm…

I eat the bars fairly often now as a quick go to when I'm out that I know I can eat and feel good about the choice.. I've tried a few different ones recently.. the best was the Quest s'mores bar... that thing was actually pretty tasty.. 21 gm Protein 14 gm Fiber 190 calories. Pretty good numbers for what I'm trying to achieve.
