Sometimes I use milk, lately I've just been using water. For the last month, I've also been tossing in some chopped watermelon or peaches. Honestly, it’s a great breakfast. It tastes good. And the best part is you aren't starving again in two hours, so you can wait until your next meal.
Do you eat them with milk? It doesn't taste that great. Also, why do you put protein in your oats in the morning? How many scoops do you use?
I’ll just find a way to work them in. I think if I toss in some extra raisins, they'll taste a bit better...
Diet, diet, diet... I just can't do oatmeal in the morning. It absolutely wrecks my stomach and leaves me feeling nauseous. Is there anything else I can eat for breakfast instead of those oats?
Ever since I started this job, my schedule has been a total mess. When I work afternoons, I hit the gym in the morning... but then I'm stuck wondering if I should be hitting the protein shake before or after my workout. Then, when I have the morning shift, I train in the afternoon and just drink them after the session. Is that actually okay?

In my opinion, a shaker is a better choice than a blender.
You can find shakers at any local fitness or supplement shop.

I guess I was talking nonsense. I bought a shaker and tried it myself, but it didn't turn out great... I'll give the milk a shot instead.
300ml, I messed up my math
I used the banana flavor and added 3 tablespoons. Is just 30ml of water really enough? It feels a little light to me.
Here’s the situation (please don't laugh at me). I picked up some protein powder the other day—I'm a total newbie at this—and everyone told me there would be a scoop inside. Well, mine didn't come with one, and now I have no idea how many grams are actually in a serving. The bag says three tablespoons per 300ml of water or milk. I went with water, mixed it in my shaker, and... man, it was awful. It tasted so bad I almost threw up. So, does anyone actually know how big that scoop is supposed to be?
Alright, here’s the situation (please don't laugh at me). I picked up some protein powder the other day—I'm still pretty new to all this—and everyone told me there would be a scoop inside. Well, mine didn't come with one, so now I have no idea how many grams are actually in a serving. The bag says three tablespoons per 300ml of water or milk (I just use water), so that's what I did. I threw it in my shaker, mixed it up, and... man, it was terrible. It tasted so bad I almost gagged. So now I really need to know: how much does that standard scoop actually hold?
Here’s the situation (don't laugh at me). I picked up some protein powder the other day—feeling pretty good about the new fitness kick. But here’s the catch: everyone tells you there’s a scoop inside when you buy protein, but mine didn't have one. Now I have no idea how big a standard scoop actually is. The bag says to use three tablespoons with 300ml of milk or water. I tried doing it that way, tossed it in my shaker, and gave it a good mix, but it was a disaster. It tasted terrible; I almost threw up. Does anyone know how much one scoop is supposed to be?
