I am drinking 2 premier protein shakes a day and getting 40 carbs total just from that.  Is that the most carbs I can have or do I need to reduce them and maybe only do one shake. That way if I eat something else with low carbs I will be ok

Check your nutrition info. For the ready made shakes, each one contains 5 total carbs w/3 of them being fiber. Even if you count all carbs, that's only 10 carbs for 2 shakes!

I'm drinking 2 premier shakes a day and it totals 10 carbs not 40 I checked the back of the container and it is 5g per bottle.

Good thing you double checked! i would be sad if that was all i could drink also. But you have alot of other options now that 2 shakes are only 1/4 of your daily carb intake

Thanks so much.  I was on myfitnesspal and when scanned barcode it says 20 grams per shake.  Ten sounds so much better.  i fixed it and now it is 5grams. So much better. You all are lifesavers I was having to rethink my meal plan.
