Smoothie Portion Size

Hi, first..what happened to the food & nutrition board?

So, question is, I'm 5 weeks out and at my 30 day check up last week, my nutritionist said that my portion size for my morning Protein smoothie was too large. She's new and kind of an airhead, so thought I'd check here with the real experts! lol My smoothie contains frozen fruit, milk or juice and Protein powder and I told her I can drink about 4-6 ounces of it. What are your thoughts on the size of it? Is it too much for Breakfast for the stage that I'm at?

Thanks!
Danielle

I get a gladiator from smoothie king. Smallest size which is about 20 oz and I sip on it for 3 hours. I don't think your shake is certainly too big. I am seeing my nut today and will let u know what she says about size of shake. Ok.

Thank you!

I drink gladiator as well (as a meal replacement on the go). 20 oz takes about 2 hours, but I'm 7 months out. Not sure about at 5 weeks.

And PS: I LOVE that you called your NUT an airhead! Haha
