Your Whey Protein Recipe

I posted this late Friday so hopefully others will join in. (This is my BUMP statement.)

Yeah, I used to use peanut butter. Great for the taste but I stopped b/c I've been trying to mix-up a 3-1, carb-protein ratio. E.g., I use 50 grams of whey & strive for 150 grams of carbs. (Along w/a balanced diet of real food of course.) If I recall, I think peanut butter has slightly more protein than carbs. Too much space in the blender!

Anyway, I think the 3-1 whey protein shake has been working. I've gone from 140lbs post-marathon to 165lbs in 1.5/2 months. (I'll shoot down to about 155-ish in the midst of S/B/R season.) Wondering if I could continue to see the same gains by neglecting the 3-1 ratio.

I can totally see that.  I'm like that with trail mix.

I have two favorites. First one is 1 cup of milk, 1 scoop vanilla whey powder, some ice, 1 tbsp flaxseed and some peach yogurt.

The second one is: 1 cup of milk, handful of spinach, 1 tbsp flaxseed, ice, 1 scoop whey powder, some mixed berries and a scoop of Greek yogurt.

I use to mix my whey protein with milk but always felt bloated after drinking so now I mix with orange juice and feel full afterwards without the bloating.

oj, frozen strawberries, frozen cut up banana and whey. The less oj you use the thicker the shake is.

Also the best invest we made was buying a single serving blender from GNC!! 

I just shake it with water.

It's a espresso fudge type flavor so other than milk anything would be gross and I can't drink milk because of my Crohn's....so I guess I don't really have any other options anyways.
