Protein Shakes On The Go

Can protein shakes be made ahead of time? Any tips for making/taking them to work? I'm a school teacher and there's a fridge in the lounge. I'm just wondering if I'm going to need to haul my Ninja to school every day to blend up a few shakes. Also, what about when you're out and about town? Any good ready-made shakes?

Buy a stainless steel mug-like from Starbucks. Fill it with an icy protein shake and you can sip on it all day. The ice will be there when you get home.

I keep a bag of Bariatric Advantage protien powder in my desk at work and I use cold water from the water cooler and shake it up in my GNC Blender Bottle. GNC BLENDER BOTTLE I think that works best for me since I dont like the way blenders make the powdered sakes frothy. The bottles come with a whisk ball that really mixes everything all together well. If you go this way you can still carry everything in powder form and just add water and you wont have to make anything ahead of time.

Muscle Milk also makes ready made protein shakes, that you just shake up. They don't even have to be refridgerated. I'd go with the Muscle Milk Light.

i buy muscle milk 100 calorie shakes. they stay warm and then i put in the fridge b4 i drink them, they are small and portable. I also keep them all over just incase, my car,at worl ect. they are good, i have chocolate and vanilla. i get them,buy the case at BJ's

These days all I drink are ready-to-drink Protein shakes. Muscle Milk Light, as mentioned above, is pretty good. Lately I've preferred the Premier brand. 160 calories and 30g of protein. They come in several flavors. I'm a chocolate lover, so prefer that flavor. I get mine at costco, but they sell them elsewhere, and you can also order from their website www.premiernutrition.com.

I also like the Premier brand Protein Bars Costco also sells. They come in three flavors, and they're quite tasty. Average about 270 calories per bar, but also has 30g of protein. Half a bar is a great Meal Replacement.

i mix mine up the night before and take them to work the next day. they often need stirred up a bit, but i haven't had any problems with them.

EAS makes some good protein shakes too. You can find them at Target and I know that QT gas station keeps them stocked in all flavors. And they taste great.
