Are you doing long exposures? You may have the long exposure noise reduction turned on. That will effectively double the time it takes to take any image, because the camera's taking a "dark frame" for noise removal.

What types of shots are you taking? Long exposures, or things like that? I'm not a Canon guy, but if you are doing anything like that, the built in noise reduction can take a few seconds to process.
Also, you might be having some write problems with your memory card. Have you tried changing it out to see if it's any different?
Hopefully someone that knows the nuances of Canon will chime in with some more info as well.
You may need to give some more info too.
What type of shots?
Any changes made to the camera setting recenctly?
New/switched card?
How are you formatting the card?
That type of thing.

Hope you can get it sorted!

EDIT: I just had the sneaky suspicion Inkista would be on top of it before I could type the first word! lol!

I might have been faster, but you were more thorough.

I would try backing up any photos on the card that you want to save, then go into the menu and select a full format of the card (this will erase all data, beware!)

If there's possibly a file corruption on the card mucking things up, that might clear it out.

Ok.

Does the delay happen on every shot? Or only once in a while?

What are you typically doing when you have to wait on the camera?

Are you shooting with a flash?

Are you shooting in continuous burst mode?

Have you reformatted the card recently? What kind of card is it? (i.e., write speed).

Are you shooting RAW, JPEG, or RAW+JPEG?

Do you have long exposure noise reduction turned on in your settings?

Do you have mirror lock-up turned on in your settings?

Are you using My Styles? Or any other extensive in-camera processing?

We need a LITTLE more information than "I'm just doing what I always do." and "It doesn't work." in order to try and help you figure out what's going on.

Is this right after you shoot, or when you try to Review them?

The only time I've ever encountered an "issue" like that was when I was shooting in Burst mode (trying to capture cars at an autocross) and overshot the buffer. Then there's a delay while the camera "catches up" and shows the last image taken.

Happens Every Shot
Shooting Raw
Havnt Formatted recently
16 GB
Noise Reduction is the same as usual
I do have all my images backed up So im going to try formatting to see if it helps.
Ive never had this happen before. It does it While taking pics w/ flash and w/out flash. And it goes sooo much slower than it use to. hopefully formatting fixes these problems!!
thanks everyone for the feedback<3

Yes, that sounds more like it's a faulty card, then. Suggest reformatting, and if that doesn't work, trying a different memory card.
