fat question

So i finally found a protein shake that i can tolerate... ( i actually like it... but dont tell lol) the eas myoplex.... i accidentally picked up the original mix, well i def cant handle the whole thing so ive been drinking half at a time... it gives me 150 calories and 21g of protein, i decided to compare the lite to the original and i notice that in the same size serving theres less protein in the lite... and only about 20 less calories but there is also 3 less grams of fat, so my question to my OH fam is... do u think i should give up the extra protien to save the fat grams? Im still on learning curve here!!!

Ohh... and the carbs are close but the lite actually has a bit more.... im just confused by all this

 That's the problem with low fat products. The fat goes down and the carbs go up as they add things to make it taste right without the fat. I'd stick with the regular. The calorie to protein ratio sounds good. A little fat is good too!

Nope. I would never give up protein for more carbs.

I refuse to eat "lite" or "fat free" foods.

Reading the labels, there's always more carbs, sodium and/or sugar and more additives.

Remove the fat, they have to add something to make it taste good. I'm not saying go out and lick a stick of butter, but fat at healthy levels is not going to negate your efforts.

 You mean licking a stick of butter isn't appropriate?! Damn it! I've done everything wrong!!! LOL

Bwahahah, only if you did it after indulging in that 1/2 pound of slab bacon. . .


Then, and ONLY then is stick o' butter appropriate ! ! !

 Bacon isn't a lean meat?! Damn it all! I quit!

Great question!

Mmmmmmmm.... bacon!!!! Lol you guys have neen very helpful! Thanks!!!!!

 Glad you're not upset I hijacked your thread for shenanigans with Tiff... 

But in seriousness, she gave you excellent advice. I'm less fat conscious and watch more for carbs.
