New Product Find (GNC Pro Performance Whey Protein)

My shake made with skim milk

Hey ladies,

So I recently realized that I was failing to meet the suggested amount of protein that I should be in taking for my diet. So I thought about several different ways to alter my diet. Then I considered protein shakes. So I done a little bit of researching, I considered several different brands. I then came across GNC Pro Performance. This brand has several different flavors and after reading the reviews and comments I decided to go with the Banana Cream Flavor. This flavor is so delish! It reminds me of a banana-flavored milkshake, and it definitely has helped me to make my recommended amount of protein in take.  Below is some information that I found via WebMd.com

Dieters. When shedding pounds sensibly, the goal is to lose body fat but maintain lean muscle mass. Protein helps you do that. Protein foods tend to be more filling, so they delay hunger, making it easier to stick with your weight-loss program. Just keep an eye on the calories and portion sizes of your protein choices when including them in meals and snacks.
