Hi. I usually have been using whey before and after working out. (I workout right after I get up, so I’d have a whey shake, workout, then whey+ Surge)
I’ve been really craving yogurt though. Could I replace any of these meals with yogurt? Would it make a difference?

I wouldnt see a problem mixing some in a shake or something before the workout.
And i would say, Surge is not intended to be mixed with anything, like your post workout meal with whey and Surge… just go with they Surge.
I use yogurt in my “protein smoothies”:
-yogurt
-milk
-Grow!
-fruit (usually a handful each of frozen organic blueberries, strawberries, and red raspberries. A banana is an option too)
Ice can be added (or substituted for milk) to make it thicker and colder.
I’m no expert on this stuff, so it’s possible this isn’t a good option for your goals/uses, but it’s a good substitute ‘milk shake’ for those of us who cut out sweets but still have a sweet tooth.
Thanks. I meant SUBBING yogurt + berries instead of whey + Surge…??
Or subbing it for my pre-workout whey? I get up, eat whey (or could be yogurt??) and then workout 30-45 min later…
why not just add the yogurt to your diet in the morning? unless your talking like a vat of yogurt, but if thats the case you got other issues. but my lifting policy is do what your body tells you, if you really want that yogurt and it wont hurt your body, chow down bro.
Try this recipe:
Milk
Chocolate Whey
Natural, Vanilla Flavored Yogurt
Chocolate Syrup
Vanilla Extract
Coffee grinds
Raspberries
It is delicious, high in protein and satisfies the yogurt cravings.
Seasonal Goodie-
2 cups milk
2 cups yogurt(plain or vanilla)
2 scoops Grow!
1 cup of pumpkin
season with nutmeg and cinamon, sweeten to taste.
Makes 1 big serving, or several smaller ones.
My daily post workout shake, and by post, I mean an hour after I’ve worked out and had Surge immediately afterwards:
3/4 cup dry rolled oats
1/2 cup lowfat yogurt
1 scoop whey
1 cup frozen fruit
There’s about a 2:1 carb:protein ratio there.

That looks pretty good
Thanks. I call it a pumpkin pie shake. It allows a lot of flexability with how you like to spice it. I’m thinking that another variation may use Oregon Chai tea latte mix packets.
Pumpkin Chai.
