    Same here, I also drink it with milk that has 10 protein a cup so its a total of 33g of protein per shake ...thats 132g of protein + whatever i eat for the day

    Always drink it AFTER the meal ...you wont be hungry to eat if you drink it beforehand

    1/2 cup non-fat milk with 2 scoops whey in the morning as soon as I wake up,

    I eat a nitro tech bar and a bagel after my workout.

    heh, it CAN get a bit chunky

    I was using 1 cup milk during the bulk (much easier), I just started cutting the carbs a bit last week and limit myself to 5-6 cups milk a day right now. I was getting 9-10 cups of milk during my bulk.

    1 post-workout with water (+ 50 g maltodextrin), and 1 before bed with milk (make my own MRP w/ natty peanut butter / banana / choco mint ON whey)

    and during breaks from school I drink usually 3 a day because I tend to sleep in and my stomach can't handle a lot in the morning during the holiday breaks
    My profile picture is about 5 years old, I'll get around to taking some progress pics eventually.

    one AS SOON AS POSSIBLE after I workout -- basically as soon as I get back into the apartment, out comes the blender (and I live a block from the gym);

    and one before bedtime.

    Use soy milk (b/c I'm mildly lactose intolerant), otherwise I spike it with pb, bananas and/or strawberries.

    Those of you worried about carbs in your shakes - check out the supermarket for Hood CarbCountdown milk replacement. It's got more protein than regular milk, and only roughly 3 G of carbs per serving. It tastes pretty good too, and when mixed with whey you'll never know the difference. It's in the dairy case.
