Ok, Jen, since you're clearly reading the Bakery right now: a protein smoothie that is going to contribute to feeling satiated and help with your muscles should be simply protein powder + water (don't exceed a scoop - the human body can't absorb too much protein in one sitting). Quit adding carbs (like frozen banana) and fat (peanut butter). Your diet is currently way too high in carbs and fat. Cut down.
You may consider adding some low-carb fruit to help with the taste if necessary. But keep the portion in check (a small handful of raspberries or strawberries, a few dices of frozen watermelon). Ideally, you want to consume your fruit whole, chewing it (not like you chew liquids though). Those "full on" smoothies you make should be considered a healthier milkshake-type of treat, meaning you should restrict them for a special occasion (once a week).
You're welcome to Google why smoothies are not a shortcut to health/why smoothies hide a lot of sugar/why smoothies can be bad for your body. Just do the protein powder and water.
Also, get a board-certified dietitian specialised in ED to work with you. They have alternative methods to help you make the right decisions (no calorie counting, no detailed food log to fill in).
