Do you guys think it would be beneficial to add more carbs in my PWO shake? Ive been having whey protein with 1 cup of FF yogurt or 1 cup of milk (dunno if that counts as a carb source)

should i add some oats to that? Im already having complex carbs about 45 mins after my shake in my pwo meal...
and is it alright if use yogurt in my shake instead of milk? does yogurt provide the same nutritional value as milk?

thankss

I usually dump a 1/3cup of oat bran in with my shake. I avoid the simple sugars as I am an endomorph and it is way to easy to pack on the pounds (or should I say fat??)

Same here with the body type so what I do is a scoop of whey with 1/4 - 1/2 cup of old fashioned oats.

here's my PWO:
1/2 cup O.F. oats, 1/2 cup fat free yogurt, 1/2 cup fat free milk, 2 scoops whey and 1/2 fruit. Works for me.

i think milk would have plenty of carbs in it for a pwo wouldnt it?
something like 20g of natural sugars (lactose)

idk...

i just mix my whey with skim milk

seems to be working pretty well for me

Just curious about the Oat Bran; I just noticed that the package of Oat Bran that I picked up from Trader Joe's is TOASTED. Is that bad? Should it be raw?
Thanks!

plewser: skim is fine and provides a nice GI spike without going crazy.

jamie: can the bran and use old fashioned oats instead. And fix the font-it makes my eyes dance all over the place.

Sorry about the font; tried to be cute! =)~

So, Oat Bran isn't good? Or is it just the toasted Oat Bran that isn't good? I'm confused because I've read that a lot of people use Oat Bran & eating hot Oat Bran for breakfast is SO yummy!

ive tried it with milk, yogurt, and fruit. What about the oats they don't taste too bad in a smoothie?

a 3 way combination seems to be the best way to go

i seperate the whey/milk drink from the other ingredients. It's actually pretty damned good.

vsnessa, bbing is boring as hell when it comes to food, especially around contest time. The trick is making what you have taste interesting. Here's another for vanilla whey-add some orange drink-not orange juice to make a (creamsicle), or lemonade (store bought sugary version) for a lemon creamsicle, root beer for a root beer float and chocolate whey lovers like myself can use fat free cottage cheese , Hershey chocolate syrup, for more calories add some fat free sugar free chocolate jello pudding.

Enjoy!
