Hi Michelle
I usually have protein shake for breakfast. Mine has almond milk, frozen berries, chia seeds, avocado (makes it smooth and adds some healthy fat), fresh greens, and rolled oats. For the protein, I use a scoop of Restore whey protein isolate, and half a scoop of brown rice protein powder. Just almond milk and protein powder doesn't work for me - I get hungry again way too soon.
Another thing I have sometimes is oatmeal with berries, coconut oil, chia seeds and protein powder mixed into Greek yogurt.
I've found it's better to eat the amount for the size I am, not the size I want to be. Also, if you are physically active the higher amount of protein is good.
