Protein shake: Replacing one meal a day with a protein ("meal replacement") shake can be acceptable to help with weight loss. However, you still need to consume healthy foods with iron, folate, (folic acid) vitamin a, d, b1-6, etc. The best would be a whey based protein shake that is low in sugar (less than 5 grams per serving), low in carbs, and high in protein (20+ grams of protein per shake).
