This is one of my all-time favorite smoothie recipes. It’s super simple and delicious!
12oz skim milk
6 strawberries (frozen or fresh)
1 whole banana (frozen or fresh)
1 scoop of whey protein powder
5 ice cubes
Blend to your desired consistency. Makes for a great post-workout shake!
I just wanted to post a quick tip on protein intake while on a calorie restricted diet. When calories are reduced (caloric deficit created), your body’s need for protein increases. Therefore, be extra aware of your protein intake during a calorie restriction. Protein intake should be in the neighborhood of 1.0g/lb of body weight. This will vary a little according to body fat, etc. But generally speaking, this is a good place to start.
