So how many oz of fluids should we try to consume and do protien shakes count towards that or is it a certain amount of water plus protein shakes?

48+ ozs minimum per day. And technically yes, shakes count towards the total.

I was told to have 5 protein shakes a day and water is supposed to be 48 to 64 oz in addition.

I stick to 64 oz and count everything liquid.

I was told not to count shakes when they're taken as a meal, because they're a meal rather than a beverage. It should be at least 64 oz (8 8-oz glasses) at least, if possible, in addition to your shakes.

Hope that helps!!

Wow 5 Protein Shakes a day? That seems like a lot!

I was told 45-60 grams of protein s day plus 64 oz of water a day. Remember if you mix protein with milk count the protein in that too.
